Both from the same album but you think they're better than say ST's "Take the Long Way Home"? ???

Good pick for #1.  ;)

Anyway, keep this list. Five years from now you'll drop and add to this list different songs but some will stay on. Why will some stay and others won't? That's the interesting part.

:) ;D

I must commend you on having no Beatles' songs on there ;D

Well, Ringo Starr's "It Don't Come Easy" is in the top 10 for today :D

I must commend you on having no Beatles' songs on there ;D
Is that why you haven't said anything about my list?  Plus the fact that I have not a single Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Springsteen or Bob Dylan on there ??? :)

Good list, zcrito!  You've included a lot of R&B classics!  ;)

I'll probably have to revise my list sometime soon. ::) :P :D

Thanks CF.
It looks like we like many of the same artists - just different songs by them. "Time Passages" over "Year Of the Cat"? "Count On Me" over "Runaway"? But we both gots the "Stomp!".

I'll probably have to revise my list sometime soon. ::) :P :D


Will you be adding or dropping some?
And once dropped they'll probably never make it back on your list.

Do I see a change in your ST selection coming up?? ::) ;D

THAT is THE best Gerry Rafferty song ever! A VERY nice list, Karen ;)

Thanks CF.
It looks like we like many of the same artists - just different songs by them. "Time Passages" over "Year Of the Cat"? "Count On Me" over "Runaway"? But we both gots the "Stomp!".

Yes, we do like a lot of the same artists.  As for my favorites by Mr. Stewart and Jefferson Starship....what can I say?  I just prefer those.  ;)

Nice list Sentimentalist, although I gotta tell ya that I'm more partial to the older stuff on there :)

Wow!  someone else actually remembers "Pick up the Pieces" !!  How 'bout "Love's Theme" by Barry White?  Or "Take 5" or "Take another 5"?  Yeah R&R Fan I like the older stuff too.  I got turned on to BNL in 93 and have been a die hard fan of their stuff since.  I still think Gordon and Born on a Pirate ship are their best albums(Albums? I just dated myself)  I must add;
Spiro Gyra: Morning Dance
Herb Alpert: Rise
David Benoit: MWA

2. When Your Heart Is Weak - C*ck Robin

When Your Heart Is Weak (CockRobin)

http://www.fye.com/catalog/musicProduct.jhtml?itemId=10922599

I haven't heard that since when it proabably came out in '85?

Thanks, zcrito!  I've always loved that song ever since the first time I heard it in 1985.  :)

BTW, it just barely grazed the Top 40 at #37.  I will never understand why it didn't do better.  ???

Hey, Bobby, it took me awhile but I finally found your #3 - Angel Eyes (1987?). I found out who Wet Wet Wet is easy enough, but the song was more of a pain to locate... >:(

Good pick! ;)

;D

Great lists, peoples!  :D

As with the mix-tape/compilation lists on the old site, It just makes me wanna go searching for a few songs that I haven't heard in years!

As for my own list,  I honestly think it's impossible!  I don't even know where to start!  :o

Ok I'll start you out, 10cc "The Things We do for Love"
How's that!

Awesome list, CF.  If I ever get the chance to sit down and put one together, mine would be very close to yours.  Most of the artists would be the same but some of the songs different,  for example I prefer Come Monday to Margaritaville.  I don't think I could stop at 50 and I think putting them in any order is next to impossible.

Man, you know I actually made a point to sit down and try to make a list.  But, alas...it still ended up closer to 75 songs than 25 or 50... :-else has listed!  :D

And, this list could change at any time--I just listed the first ones that I thought of!

:) :) :)

Do you happen to own the album Night and Day?


No I don't Lebeiw - do you??  Is it worth buying?  I've got Look Sharp on vinyl.  It's been a favourite for many years.

Yes!  I loved Steppin' Out and that is why I bought the album.  I didn't know any of the other songs.. but I'm glad I got it, 'cause they were all almost as good as Steppin' Out.  "Real Men" became a favorite because I got that album. :)

I don't have Look Sharp.  I  plan on getting that real soon.

Egads..well, then since I did take the time to think it through, here goes!  :-\\(These are also not really in order, just in where I thought of them...)

Hooray!  You did it!  Nice list...although I have to say there are quite a few on here that I don't recognize (by title).  :)

Find Your Way Back--Jefferson Starship
(The entire Nuclear Furniture album, actually! I just can't remember right off what the songs that really stick out were called.. :-\\)

OMG, I thought I was the only one who remembered this!  :o 8)  I love Jefferson Starship!  :)

Well, thanks, I'm glad you appreciated my really long list.   :D

Yeah, some of them are probably a little unknown..I listened to a lot of Canadian music, which is where some of them came in, and a lot are songs from albums, that may never havce been released.  But they're all good!  ;)



OMG, I thought I was the only one who remembered this!  :o 8)  I love Jefferson Starship!  :)


Oh no, I love Jefferson Starship!  They were one of those bands, that I had liked We Built This City, and Sara, but had never heard of the others.  Then a radio station I listened to started playing some of their older stuff when they were doing a concert in the area, and well, I got hooked!  I thought Nuclear Furniture was just an all around spectacular album--even as a teen, it just really made me think (which is something when you're a teenaged girl!  LOL!  ;D).
I always thought that Jefferson Starship had some really thought-provoking music..and Starship was just a commercial machine.  Though, I did enjoy them too!   I actually saw Starship once when I was in Jr. High, and then I saw Mickey Thomas (who had been the guy lead singer) alone years later, and he did do some of the "old stuff" too.  I really enjoyed them.  :D

I have to tell you that I prefer Jefferson Starship from the time that Marty Balin was the lead singer (mid to late-70's).  You might remember "Miracles" and "Count On Me"...those were sung by him.  I like Grace Slick, and Mickey Thomas did a good job, too, but I kind of lost interest in them when they dropped 'Jefferson' and just became known as 'Starship'.  As you said, they went very commercial.

I agree.

Jefferson (whatever) is an odd band. Three decades of music. Hard to believe. For me I always liked the stuff they did in the '70s ('75-'78 to be exact). There just aren't many bands that can say they had hits in 3 different decades. Easier said than done I guess. The Rolling Stones just made it in '81. Stevie Wonder did it. Any one else? ???

I agree.

Jefferson (whatever) is an odd band. Three decades of music. Hard to believe. For me I always liked the stuff they did in the '70s ('75-'78 to be exact). There just aren't many bands that can say they had hits in 3 different decades. Easier said than done I guess. The Rolling Stones just made it in '81. Stevie Wonder did it. Any one else? ???

I'm gonna try Aerosmith and KISS..? :-\\

Elton John, Billy Joel, Genesis, Santana, Fleetwood Mac, Beach Boys, Aerosmith, Rod Stewart, Meat Loaf, Phil Collins..

Meat Loaf
