Here at Grits and Gravy I've decided to institute Tuesday's list. I will make a list of five things under a category of my own choosing. I will encourage you, friends, to share your own list or berate (or compliment!) me about mine.
Here goes nuthin:
Top 5 (in no particular order) perfect songs in popular music
1. "The Weight" by the Band
2. "Wouldn't it be Nice" by the Beach Boys
3. "Satisfaction" by the Rolling Stones
4. "Son of a Preacher Man" by Dusty Springfield
5. "Don't Stop 'til You get Enough" by MJ
Honorable Mention: "Tears of a Clown"; "Fat Bottomed Girls"; "Me and Bobby McGee"; "I Wanna Hold your Hand."
Excellent list. 5 is way too hard, though! In no particular order, I add:
ReplyDelete1. Under Pressure by Queen and David Bowie
2. God Only Knows by the Beach Boys
3. In My Life by the Beatles
4. PYT by Michael Jackson
5. This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody) by Talking Heads
Also:
I Say a Little Prayer by Dionne Warwick
Waterloo Sunset by the Kinks
For Once in My Life by Stevie Wonder
Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow by The Shirelles
Get Me Away from Here, I'm Dying by Belle & Sebastian (I had to)
I like your list, lady! I do kind of feel like Ms. Ross mIght find us and kick our shins for not including her, anywhere. "Reflections" is pretty close to perfection.
ReplyDeleteBohemian Rhapsody by Queen
ReplyDeleteGoing to California by Led Zeppelin
Everyday by Buddy Holly
In My Life by the Beatles
Desperado by The Eagles
Perfect and perfect!
Brown Eyed Girl, Van Morrisson
ReplyDeleteAll My Loving, The Beatles (limited myself to one!)
I think We're Alone Now, Tommy James & the Shondells or Tiffany- I'm not a purist here
(Can't Get No) Satisfaction, The Rolling Stones
Breakfast at Tiffany's, Deep Blue Something
