    What are your favorite songs?
    I am deleting my songs on my I-pod so I am going to start over again. What are your favorite songs? I am into all types; as long as it sounds good. They could be 50 years old or just come out yesterday, what ever floats your boat. The artist and song name would help me a lot.

    Are you open to the types of music that might not have any words to them? What types of music are your preferences? I am into a lot of different types of music.

    "Closer to Fine" = Indigo Girls
    "Jonestown" - Concrete Blonde

    Pretty much anything by the Traveling Wilburys

    Oooh... isn't it Modest Mouse that does "Bury Me With It"? (I *think* that's the name, anyway)

    I LOVE that song.

    I would be open to types of music that do not have words in them but right now I do not listen to them. Rap and pop is probably my favorite.

    There really isn't a top ten for me because I have never heard of most of these songs before. The ones I have heard are:
    Stairway to Heaven --Led Zepplin
    Every rose has it's thorn--poison
    Crazy train—ozzy
    Who knew--pink
    But, I have to listen to the other ones that were suggested to see if I like those.

    Sure, I didn't mean today... just later after you have had time to review all the selections.

    Well I don't know about the States, but I'm sure going to pass it on to a lot of people in Canada! Great song Nicki... thanks!

    And "Happy"?. I would be stuck to my computer, have to hire a maid and a cook, among other things to try and name all my fave songs, lol I'll see if I can come up with a list of a few. Happy song hunting!

    Robbie Williams is pretty big in Australia too niki , I am a big fan as well. I think he basically doesn't release anything in the States because he lives there and enjoys being able to walk down the street without people noticing him.
