Top 40…

While ripping all of those CD’s, I got to thinking what would be my top 40 (my homage to Casey Kasem) songs of all time. I’ve thought about this before but I’ve never actually put it together. Anyone who knows me at all knows what a ridiculous task it would be. I love music. I have a couple of favorite artists. Alison Kraus, Barenaked Ladies, Jack Johnson, Lilly Adams, Shania Twain, Scott Smith (even though he only has one CD) and the list goes on… But what would the songs be? Here’s an attempt at the top 10:

1. Hello City – Barenaked Ladies (They’re the greatest!)

2. Banana Pancakes -Jack Johnson (Thanks Marcy for turning me on to JJ)

3. Bring It On Home To Me – Sam Cooke (The legend!)

4. Tired of Being Alone – Al Green (Probably the smoothest R&B singer)

5. Everywhere – Fleetwood Mac (Still kickin’ myself for not getting to see them live!)

6. Killing Me Softly – Fugees (I hate to dis Roberta Flack, her version was the original!)

7. It Takes Two – Rob Base & DJ EZ Rock (Best dance song ever! Can you say running man?!)

8. No One Is To Blame – Howard Jones

9. Love Can Build A Bridge – The Judds

10. Walking In The Rain – Ronettes

That was very hard and just the top 10. Of course, it’s a liquid list so some of the songs could be bumped one way or the other. I’m sure I’m forgetting one of my favorites but…

CD Ripping Update: I’m up to “K” now. 11th letter…
