I would have to go with "Going Through the Motions" as a first and "Rest in Peace" running in at a hard 2nd. "Something to Sing About" is 3rd on the list.

It's funny how certain songs on a kiddy show can have such deep meanings. Go figure...

"Going Through the Motions" This is where I've been at for 6 or 7 years.

"Rest in Peace" is my current relations with humanity.

"Something to Sing About"
Give me something about Earth and it's people to hold on to, and find reason for being here; in a big bad world that is as evil as this one. Tell me something good about Earth and its people and I'll listen.

I find it a bit disturbing that anyone who's actually watched at least the majority of the show could even call it a "kiddy" show. That's ridiculous in my opinion. BUFFY is actually far superior and more "adult" than most so-called adult shows out there. It may have taken place in high school and been about growing up, but how in the world could it possibly be in the same category as, say, Barney or Dawson's Creek or even Charmed (my idea of "kiddy" shows)?

"They got! The mustaaaard ! Ooooooooooooouuuuuuuutttttt!!!!"






Okay, I'm kidding.

'Walk Through the Fire' is my personal favourite. Big group ensemble singing thing, plenty of drama and funny. I especially love Willow's "I think this line's mostly filler", Tara's sorrowful reprisal of 'What Can't We Face" and the part where Sweet sings in harmony to the rest of the group about how Buffy is walking to her death. Oooh!

Second is 'Standing'. It's sooooo closely followed by 'Under Your Spell', which is beautiful and sweet (and yet, in true Joss fashion, has a disturbing double meaning thanks to the episode the week before.)'Standing' wins purely because when Tony sang "I wish I could lay your arms down and let you rest at last" the line hit me so hard it made me shiver. A great, great performance of a great, great song.
