What's that one song that just does it for you?

Post by chrisn »

I know we've discussed this topic before but it's been a while so I thought it was time for a refresher.

What is that one must have feel good song for you that you have on your STJ playlist or burned on a cd that you take down to listen to?

Getting ready to burn some island music and it would be fun to have some new ideas.

Here's mine...

Island in the Sun - Weezer

My "song of the moment" is Shame and Scandal by Madness.

(Island in the Sun by Weezer is on my list! Good one!)

Almost anything by Jimmy Buffett is right up there, but if forced to choose, I'd go with "A Pirate Looks at Forty"; close seconds: "One Particular Harbor" and "Son of a Son of a Sailor" :D

I would have to also say Jimmy Buffett. The song that always does it for me is "Manana".

Question: "What's that one song that just does it for you?"

Answer: Whether on the USVI's or at home, what does it for me (and ultimately my husband :lol: ) is "At Last" by Etta James. "At Last" our wedding song as well as "At Last" -- THANK GOD IN HEAVEN WE'RE BACK HERE AFTER COUNTING DOWN, PLANNING AND OBSESSING!
