Ah, post your list if you can. Maybe we have more of the same taste.

Summing up the broad spectrum of my musical experience and condensing that down to 20 songs sounds like a very difficult task ... but I'll give it a shot. I think this list doesn't really represent what I listen to now, but more my nod to musical history with a few modern bands thrown in.

1. Lateralus - Tool
2. A Day in the Life - The Beatles
3. Time - Pink Floyd
4. Across the Universe - The Beatles
5. Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin
6. Working Class Hero - John Lennon
7. Let It Be - The Beatles
8. Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd
9. Creep - Radiohead
10. Imagine - John Lennon
11. Hotel California - The Eagles
12. Vicarious - Tool
13. While My Guitar Gently Weeps - The Beatles
14. All Things Must Pass - George Harrison
15. Aenema - Tool
16. Everlong - Foo Fighters
17. The Bends - Radiohead
18. Dream On - Aerosmith
19. 10,000 Days - Tool
20. Aerials - System of a Down

Of those bands, only about 5 songs are so are ones I've listened to recently, but the rest are some of the best songs known to man. No mistake The Beatles have so many of them.

love your list so much

as for me, god my music tastes bounce around too wildly for me to be set on anything. I'd probably wanna change it by the time I typed it all up, then I'd spend 30 mins looking for the perfect list, then I'd just get frustrated and close the browser. so yea

According to last.fm,

1 Hildegard von Bingen – Finale - In principio omnes creature viruerunt



2 [unknown] – Prinz Eugen Marsch



3 Lady GaGa – Bad Romance



4 King Henry VIII – Helas Madame

10 Hildegard von Bingen – Finale - Hoc audiant et intelligant omnes populi

18 Die Walkure - Ride Of The Valkyries – Die Walkure - Ride of the Valkyries



19 Boston Camerata – Gloucestershire



20 Danse Royale – Anon

Well it's impossible for me to put a real order, but I would say, an approximate list right now would be:

1. A Day In The Life, The Beatles (Those orchestra parts are just friggin awesome, right!?!?)
2. Born To Run, Bruce Springsteen
3. Mississippi, Bob Dylan
4. Back in the U.S.S.R, The Beatles
5. Monkey Man, The Rolling Stones
6. Ventilator Blues, The Rolling Stones
7. Oh! Darling, The Beatles
8. Working On The Highway, Bruce Springsteen
9. Run Through The Jungle, Creedence Clearwater Revival
10. Ticket To Ride, The Beatles
11. Within You Without You, The Beatles
12. Desolation Row, Bob Dylan
13. Drive All Night, Bruce Springsteen
14. I Want You (She's So Heavy), The Beatles
15. The Long and Winding Road, The Beatles
16. Octopus's Garden, The Beatles
17. She Came In Through The Bathroom Window, The Beatles
18. Something, The Beatles
19. Meeting Across The River, Bruce Springsteen
20. Rosalita (Come Out Tonight), Bruce Springsteen

Some I picked because I've listened alot to them recently (like Mississippi), others are unforgettable classics (like Rosalita). As a whole, I can say that I listen to The Beatles ALOT right now, since I got the new stereo box. (Which is, btw, awesome). Some songs were omitted but could easily be put in, like, Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band.

(as a 21. I'd like to add Taxman, The Beatles. I just can't leave that one out!)

I would NEVER go so far as to say that about her any more than I would have said that about Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera or any other shallow pop whore who makes their fortune on club songs.

I hardly think that Poker Face, with such rousing lyrics as:

Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got

Can't read my, can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She gotta love nobody)
Can't read my, can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She gotta love nobody)

P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
(Mum mum mum mah)
P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
(Mum mum mum mah)

Would ever qualify as the anthem of a generation or be made by someone with a modicum of talent.

Nor would a song whose refrain is "ga ga ooh rah rah".
