Songs that we can't just listen to once.

Post by StJohnRuth »

What song do you need to hear again, when you hear it?
For me: "Indian Sunset" by Elton John, from the album Madman Across the Water.
I have been nuts about that song for thirty years. The entire album is great, but that song just grabs me every time.

Oh boy, this is a very difficult question for ToonMann. Here's what I've been listening to -- all are on YouTube:

FOR ONCE IN MY LIFE - Righteous Bros.
CAROLINE, NO - Nick DeCaro
MY OLD MAN - Joni Mitchell
LOVE ME STILL - Loulou LaMotte
MISTAKE NO. 3 - True Faith
SURF'S UP - Vince Gill

Okay, I'll stop there.

PS: How come nobody's mentioned Kenny Chesney yet?

Any of the Johnny Cash American recordings. If I hear 1 I want to listen to all of them.

As much as I love Ring of Fire, I sort of meant to say "Mad World" (Idol studio version).

The version of Ring of Fire I like is the live Idol performance, and is all done in a minor key.

The only two things I'll probably ever have of Adam Lambert's, but I think they're pretty good. :lol:
