    "Atlantic City" just came on the radio... I'd forgotten how much I like that song. Inspired me to put the entire album back in my cd player :). Here are 10 of my favorite songs (no repeat of bands... otherwise Bobby D would dominate this list!) No particular order... I like these threads because I always discover something new to enjoy from another poster.

    1. "Don't Think Twice" - Bob Dylan
    2. "Sweet Jane" - Velvet Underground
    3. "Madame George" - Van Morrison
    4. "Mayonnaise" - Smashing Pumpkins
    5. "Polly" - Nirvana
    6. "In the Shape of a Heart" - Jackson Browne
    7. "Craziest Game of Poker" - OAR
    8. "Cowgirl in the Sand" - Neil Young
    9. "Undone" - Josh Joplin
    10. "Atlantic City" Bruce Springsteen

    10 is too many, but I had trouble cutting my list that short.

    Anyone else think that making a list of your favorite songs, movies, or books(Or, pretty much favorite anything) is pretty much impossible? You will always leave off songs(/movies/books/etc...) that you love...

    It's pointless!

    I'm not even going to try!

    Queen of Velveteen-Starbox
    Piano Man-BJ
    Dry your Eyes-Neil Diamond
    Glycerine-Bush

    The point, sir, is padding your post count. Sheesh, I thought everyone knew that. ;)
