November Rain Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 (edited) Music tastes change, sometimes from day to day, but what are your enduring classics? The songs that have always & will always get a reaction from you? List ten of your faves... Mine are (in no particular order): Whiter Shade of Pale - Procul Harum (Don't Fear) The Reaper - Blue Oyster Cult November Rain - Guns n Roses Perfect Day - Lou Reed Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin Love Bites - Def Leppard Free Bird - Lynyrd Skynyrd Wish you were here - Pink Floyd Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen OK, cheating now as I can't decide between: Born to be Wild - Steppenwolf/ Light my Fire - The Doors/ Mama - Genesis Anyone else want to try & narrow their favourites down to 10 (or 12 in my case!!) ?

Jim's_a_Thai_Fox Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 yikes, that's a tricky one... off the top of one's head The Beatles - Get Back The Stone Roses - Going down The doors - Roadhouse Bob Dylan - Like a rolling Stone Mc Solar - Nouvean Western Floyd - we're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl... Beck - Sex laws the velvet underground - pale blue eyes Michael Jackson - Billy Jean Hendrix - wind cries Mary Like the late, great bill hicks said: drugs are good. Those artists who were on drugs were real high and made real good music. Those artists who speak out against drugs...boy, their music sucks!

I got a woman, stay drunk all the time. I said I got a little woman and she wont be true. On sunday mornin when we go down to church See the menfolk standin in line. Dont say they come to pray to the lord But when my little girl looks so fine. An in the evenin when the sun is sinkin low Everybodys with the one they love. I walk the town, keep-a searchin all around, Lookin for my street corner girl. I got a woman, wan ball all day yeah. I got a woman, she wont be true no, no. I got a woman, stay drunk all the time. I said I got a little woman and she wont be true. An in the bars with the men who play guitars, Singin, drinkin and rememberin the time, A-my little lover does a midnight shift, She fool around-a all a the time. I guess theres just one thing then left for me to do: Gonna pack my bags an move on my way A-cause I got a worried mind sharin what I thought was mine. Gonna leave her where the guitars play. I got a woman, she wont be true no, no. I got a woman, wanna ball all day-yeah-yeah now, now. I got a woman, stay drunk all the time. I got a little woman and she wont be true. Hey, hey what can I do? I said she wont be true no. yeah-no, yeah-no, Whoah-ho what can I say? Yeah-no, yeah-no. [ ahhh__ ] Hey, hey what can I do?
