1. Breaking The Habit - I consider it,along with Hurt by NIN the best song written for drug addiction.Apart from that, the lyrics stand there for everyone. Why dragging on something that is killing you slowly, why let all your bad habits,problems,black thoughts drag you down? Just stand up,it may be your fault but you know how it ends:
by Breaking the habit..tonight.. I believe just be reading those lyrics someone can stand up and realize that past is past, but future is always ahead of them.Or,on another view it shows someones true regret and express like his last call for forgiveness. Helps me everytime I listen to it,to forget anything bad and just move on.So much power,so much meaning in just a little bit more than 3:00 minutes.
As for the music,it's perfect and adds to the emotion.Especially the strings,and Chester's performance just makes you cry..
I cant make a top 3.It's too hard.I can only choose this song as their best because it means so much to me,and I've been listening to it since it came out and every time I do,I like it more and more.I cant press pause as long as it starts..Plus it's the song that got me into LP.
