But 15 is NOT a lot of songs and hard enough...but to me there's still a difference between 15 and 10. Like a lot of others here, I have a gargantuan record collection. In sheer numbers 15 may well be a much smaller portion of the songs I know and love than 10 might be of somebody else's.

It's why I can't do these things, I pull my hair out...choosing 15 songs I love the most can be, on any given day, the most important thing I ever do.

Re: Your Top 10 All-Time favorite songs

I'm with Vatican Plum. Narrowing to ten songs is asking so much. And no doubt about it, this is the most important thing I've done today. I'm sure this will all change by tomorrow...

1952 Vincent Black Lightning - Richard Thompson
Famous Blue Raincoat - Leonard Cohen
Guitars, Cadillacs - Dwight Yoakam
Whatever It Takes - Ron Sexsmith
Shipbuilding - Elvis Costello
Fields of Gold - Eva Cassidy
California - Robert Bradley's Blackwater Surprise
Luchenbach, Texas - Waylon Jennings
Joey - Concrete Blonde
A Nightingale Sang in Berkley Square - Anat Ben-Yehoshua
