Which song would you use to introduce yourself to someone new?

I'm going with Gloria by Mineral for a number of different reasons.

Mineral has long been my favorite band.

Gloria is one of my favorite songs by them or any band.

I think at different times different parts of the lyrics have stood out for different reasons. Life, faith and everything swirling around it is quite a journey and there are aspects of that captured well by this song. Finally, I love the last, "glory is a silent thing."
