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?

Toonman- I have KC in my post- Somewhere in the Sun, although Old Blue Chair is a close second.... anything that mentions STJ I can listen to a LOT.

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

CAG- I love Magic, too. And I haven't heard Ring of Fire by Adam Lambert- but I love that song- going to check it out!

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.
