One album for the rest of your life

Hm. Maybe Chinese Democracy (Guns n Roses). It's got some high energy bits and some mellow bits. Depending on my mood I'll just skip the bits I don't want. http://amzn.to/1Iyhbf9
I could listen to track 6 and 14 on loop.

That's a very very tough call! Already some good suggestions. I could make loads more!
But the one which sprang to mind instantly, albeit it probably wouldn't be on many other people's list, would be Attack of the Grey Lantern by Mansun. It's certainly one of my all-time faves. But I could have a top 10 very quickly!

I should listen to it again then. I've got it, but it's never stood out to me.I could listen to track 6 and 14 on loop.

My other one is Bleed America by Jimmy Eat World. Love that album.

I think it grows on you. The two tracks I mentioned are quite long and change about in a ballad-y kind of way so do take getting used to. Nice to listen to when commuting.Part of what put me off the album initially was the lack of Slash but I've realised the "new" guy's pretty good now that I've listened to this album hundreds of times.
The energetic songs are not great but they're not bad so it's something you can listen to when in the mood, hence I think it could be the one album for the rest of my life.
I've just listened to There Was a Time yet again!

As much as I'm a bit of a heavy rock fan, I'd like to say The Heart Of Saturday Night by Tom Waits...
... but it only suits melancholy moods. So, I'd choose Mezzanine by Massive Attack. Never get tired of hearing it, and whatever mood I'm in it seems to fit. Dark, heavy, slightly seedy, with an under-lying menace, and both tense and yet curiously chilled and relaxing. Perfect.
