What really caught my attention about the list is that I'm not a Nick Cave fan at all, but I like "Sad Waters" a lot. I'd say it's just about the only song by him that I truly enjoy listening to.

I agree. Into My Arms is alright, actually I like the Boatman's Call ok...I'm just not a big fan of his voice. There's an all-around droniness to his voice, his lyrics, his music...they have to come together a certain way for me to be able to take them. But that is a good song.

Thanks. I'm curious to see your list.

I was just listening to that album on my way to work last night. Excellent song. Page did a really solid "live" version with the Black Crows several years back.

There is no way I can list my top 10. It's constantly changing with mood and tastes. Here's ten songs that I am listening to right now though...

I'd Love To Change The World - 10 Years After
Eleanor Rigby - Beatles
Pigs - Pink Floyd
Dazed and Confused - Led Zep
Subdivisons - Rush
Behind Blue Eyes - Who
Knockin' At Your Back Door - Deep Purple
Rainbow In The Dark - Dio
Baby You're A Rich Man - Beatles (Love the Lennon line "How does it feel to be one of the beautiful people?")

The guy should be in the R n R HOF. It's ridiculous he is not seeing who has been inducted. I was listening to a radio special month omn the 25th anniversary of Killer and how producer Bob Ezrin really helped to give the band their "unique" sound.

If you're persistent and just slightly irritating, they let you have 15.
