    Top 5 Favorite Songs by [_________]

    A couple of years ago we had a "5 Favorite Bob Dylan Songs" thread that went on for awhile. It afforded a lot of depth for people wanting to expand their Dylan collections.

    What I have in mind here is putting down your 5 favorite songs for any good singer or band. I'm constantly looking for new music to add to my mp3 collection, so this could be a way for all of us to share. Let's find some sleepers...

    BOB DYLAN

    Lion's Den
    Like The Sun

    Steven Curtis Chapman
    This Day
    Live Out Loud
