The Guitar is my favorite instrument in songs as well, Especially in those Classic Rock songs!  |

I'm a real sucker for the saxaphone so I voted for that. I like the guitar and piano too.

No strings?
Man, I hear a violin or a cello, and I get summoned

Percussion followed by a great sax solo. I find guitars to be overrated but obviously essential.

I think it would've been more fun to break them down a bit more than these broad categories, so I guess strings is what I'll vote for. This is my top 3:
1. Fiddle
2. Steel guitar
3. Dobro

Of the instruments stated here, I'd say sax. I agree with back2blk about the cello; I can just think of more songs I love with a sax, probably because the cello is rarely highlighted. I also love the sitar, jaw harp, and fiddle. I wish they were all used in more songs. |

Percussion
Drums, rhythmics and syncopation are usually the first things to grab me.

It really depends on the genre. For R&B and hip-hop, I love drums and guitars (electric or acoustic).
In folk songs, itβs all about how guitars are mixed. I also love the cello and upright bass in these.
I love piano in rock songs.
Overall, I really love the B3 Hammond organ in songs with a southern sound to them. In the late 90s and early 2000s, some pop/rock songs had this and it was glorious.

There is nothing like a well-placed, well-played Oboe or English Horn solo. It's rare in Pop music but is one of the many reasons I love Madonna's "Crazy For You" so much.

I voted for percussion from the options given, but I'm surprised there's no love for bass.

Faith Hill's "You're Still Here" is rife with this, and it's so beautiful. One of my favorites from Cry for this instrument alone. I'm an absolute sucker for saxophone, as I played it for seven years in the middle and high school band...that, and piano and strings (not to mention the obvious ones as a country fan--fiddle, dobro, and the like) will get me every time. |

Should have broken up guitar into its types, but it's a winner.
