What's Your Song?

That's some good stuff.
So many of them went on to be in other great groups.

I think that many of you know how much music matters to me. It is our most powerful art form. Music jacks straight into our central nervous system. I cannot choose only one composition--yet.

Why choose a song when I can select a symphony? First choice: Dvorak Symphony No. 9, From The New World. Second choice: Beethoven's Symphony No. 8, the precursor to his transcenant No. 9: The Chorale, but absent the (rather annoying) singing.

Why select a song when you can select an album? To wit: The Who, Live At Leeds, Deluxe Edition, with a compete live performance of Tommy. The greatest live rock album ever. As good, and actually, though it hurts my rock 'n' roll heart to say this, if you held a gun to my head, I would say even better (and THAT is fucking saying something): Eva Cassidy's Nightbird album, the COMPLETE recording of her live concert at D.C.'s Blues Alley club, the same night as she made Eva Cassidy Live At Blues Alley, an album that is a legend among popular music cognisceni.

But, if you insist on just one song, I will comply, but there are still conditions.

If the song is just for and about me: Sympathy For The Devil, The Rolling Stones, the rendition on their Get Your Ya-Ya's Out Album.

If you ask for the most transcendent song that I have ever heard: Somewhere Over The Rainbow, by Eva Cassidy, on her album, Songbird.

If you ask me for the finest instrumental composition that is not a symphony that I ever expect to hear: Rhapsody In Blue, by George Gershwin.

I really like Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.

He's a very talented guy.
He's even writing the script for the new Crow movie.

Good stuff hownos.

I had never heard that one before.

Kind of a funky relaxing sound .

What a beautiful song!

You never disappoint.
Well, at least not that often.

a nice song to be associated with.
