Metallica's Hero of the Day, always.
Everything else depends on mood, yes?

Mostly anything lively you can sing to yourself in the car.

We could cruise "the L"

Yeah, I just said that.

@Nichole765 what is "The L"?

@Angus the L behind at the DG parking lot, turn right onto SR 28, then continue to Rickers.
Repeat. Repeat. Repeat
You didn't spend your teenage years in that area, did you?

@Nichole765
Nope. Originally from Ohio. Been in this state less than a decade.

  1. Blowin' in the Wind: Peter Paul and Mary
  2. Woman: John Lennon
  3. Man in the Mirror: Micheal Jackson
  4. What a Wonderful World: Lewis Armstrong
  5. Imagine: John Lennon

I like you taste. ABBA is fabulous.

Honestly I only know that one ABBA song. When I had my first love interest (15, 16), it was "our song" ?

I think that Peter Paul and Mary songs are considered to be in the folk genre.

"The Dance" sung by Garth Brooks.

His last tour was very impressive. Three sold-out nights in Indy. He is returning to play at Notre Dame sometime in the winter

@Nichole765 I really do not care for Garth Brooks but this song has a very powerful meaning to life.

@jlynn37 yeah he's definitely not my genre. But to produce an album that will sell out shows after 15,20 years is impressive.

Limiting it to five is a difficult task! I am going to have to give this some substantial thought.

Those are the ones I always return to.

On the Turning Away-Pink Floyd
Am I Evil-Diamond Head
Rags to Riches- Tony Bennet
Promised Land-Chuck Berry

I already left a post saying too many to list and I love a lot of classical songs too, but I have two favourites at the present and I am posting them here now. The first is Benny Andersson of ABBA’s song Give Me My Song sung by Bryn Terfel and Sissel Kyrkjebo and the second is Morten Harket singing his own song There Is A Place.

Oh and another Benny Andersson song sung by Sissel which I love....Like.An Angel Passing Through My Room.

My alltime favorite song in the universe:

A student asked me if I played piano so I played (with an emphases on pain) a bit of that while testing the electric piano for a school music program. She noted. That is a very sad song.

Also one of my favorite piano works.

I consider myself pretty eclectic when it comes to genres.

The best song ever written is Night's Blood by Dissection. The song is written like a poem. I don't know how Jon did lead and vocals at the same time. I can't keep up that tempo for very long, let alone do vocals!

Mine keep changing. Too many to count. But some perennial favorites, due to lyrics that make you think, are:
"Fragile" and "History Will Teach Us Nothing," both by Sting,
"Free Will," by Rush,
"93 Million Miles" by Jason Mraz,
"In My Life," by the Beatles,
"Sorry Seems To Be the Hardest Word" by Elton John

1

Simply way too many to pick just five.

I feel Blue October is severely underrated. I've traveled all over the midwest to see their live shows.

My favorite song is "Let It Be" by the Beatles.
