Can't Hardly Wait - The Replacements
Black Peter - The Grateful Dead
Backstreets - Bruce Springsteen
Thrasher - Neil Young
Mr Blue Sky - ELO
Simon and Garfunkel - Only Living Boy in New York City
Driver 8 - REM
The Grand Tour - George Jones
Penny Lane - The Beatles
Torn and Frayed - The Rolling Stones
These lists are so interesting to me.
For instance. Roy's list. I would imagine that would be almost the exact same list as my Dad and were basically all songs I grew up listening to as a kid.
Cyclone's list is a list of songs I'd probably list as my Top 10 if I were in a mellow, laid-back mood. Especially Anna Begins and Corduroy. We share "Where'd You Go" in our Top 10, and I love that 2Pac song as well. Zombie listed a lot of songs I liked in college, but haven't listened to in a long time.
This is a tough assignment. As Roy said, I could probably do a Top 50 by decade and still leave some songs out. I'd also have a hard time doing a Top 10 by genre.
Good stuff so far everyone.

RL, you have pretty good taste for a married dude.

I almost put in Cut my Hair, Range Life and Hey as well.
Well, it's important to recognize your contemporaries.
There is no such thing as a pitching prospect.
My list mostly reflects the fact that I'm just an overall laid-back kind of dude so those types of the songs are the ones that make the list over the long haul.
The upbeat "rock out" kind of songs that I always like tend to be the usual flavor of the month kinds in that I'll listen to them a lot for a few weeks or months, then they'll just tend to fade away for a time before cropping back up again for another few weeks.

So I'm either desperately clinging to my youth, or I haven't bought any new CDs in a long time. Ok.

When all is said and done more is said than done.
If that was your way of sucking up so you could post 15 songs, it worked.
If it wasn't, thanks, I think. Still not sure how to take that.
