They are…

You’ve Lost that Lovin’ Feelin’ by The Righteous Brothers
Killing Me Softly with His Song by Roberta Flack
Bother Love’s Traveling Salvation Show by Neil Diamond
Monday Monday by The Mamas and The Papas

What are yours?

"Fire and Rain" by James Taylor is my favorite song. "Sundown" and other songs by Gordon Lightfoot. Glen Campbell songs. Eagles songs. And '70 and '80s rock.

I'm very favorite song is the Pet Shop Boy's cover of You were always on my mind.
I love Please Mr Please by ONJ (also her cover of Jolene, Changes, Sam, Xanadu, just about all her songs from the 70's-90's. I love her voice and everything but those are my favorite songs of hers)
Music For the Masses album by Depeche Mode.
Pictures of You by the Cure
Vincent by Don McLean
Anything by Chris Isaak
Lots of lots of '80s alternative
Anything by the Shangri Las
All the tragic 50's songs, Patches, Tell Laura I Love Her, Last Kiss, etc

Hey now, Olivia was a country singer first, I listed a few of her country songs! I love old country music (He Stopped Loving Her Today, Old El Paso, Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, Patsy Cline). The new stuff I don't care for other then the odd Brad Paisley song and Randy Travis, but they both have a more classic sound. Well, RT does, the BP songs I love are the older sounding ones-Whiskey Lullaby, Waiting on a Woman, the Lion duet one. The new country stuff is terrible though. I bet there are more peas than you think that like Country Music! |

So I won't even give you a rundown of what my favs are ... just know that the first song I ever learned by heart as a child was "Delta Dawn" by Tanya Tucker! I don’t think that is true. There are a lot of people who like country music. I have country playlist and songs amongst all my others. I love Delta Dawn and I do have it on some playlist. Harper Valley PTA is one of my 2 shower songs (songs I sing in the shower). Two out of Three ain’t Bad by meatloaf is the other 😄 Others that I love just off the top of my head: when you say nothing at All - Alison Krauss Baby now that I found you - Alison Krauss Live life like you were dying - Tim McGraw Sweet Annie and That Highway 20 ride - Zac Brown Drinkin’ problem - Midland when I get where I am going and Whiskey Lullaby - Brad Paisley Strawberry Wine - Deana Carter |

Too many songs to choose from but if I’m home by myself puttering around, doing housework, etc. I’ll ask Alexa to play songs by…
Jim Croce
Simon And Garfunkel
James Taylor
Tracy Chapman
Sarah McLachlan
Justin Bieber
I really just like to sing along and enjoy many of these artists’ songs. Often wonder what Jim Croce would have done had he lived longer.

I love artists that are from every decade ... including Randy Travis! I have satellite radio in my car and listen to The Highway ... it's all new artists and so many are really good  I will say that the fact that of the top three singles, two of the songs talk about trucks doesn't help country music stereotyping!  ("Get In the Truck" and "Heart Like a Truck") |

Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen
I’ve loved this song since the first time I heard it when it first came out. Pure genius. So many memories.

MCR Black Parade. Florence and the Machine and crowded house are on my current play lists. Don't have all time favourite music.
I tend to like artists of styles of music.

Current song obsession that I just canNOT get enough of is Props and Mayhem by Pierce the Veil. Such a great song!! Lots of other favorites but that’s the one on repeat at the moment.

I listen to more Country music than any other. But it is mostly older Country artists like Alan Jackson, Martina McBride, Gary Allen, I grew up on Loretta Lynn, Conway Twitty, Ronnie Milsap, Johnny Cash and Tammy Wynette. I do like Thomas Rhett, Little Big Town and Midland for newer Country.

crowded house are on my current play lists. I freaking LOVE 80's music (as well as country!) and Crowded House is a fav!  My fav song from them is "Better Be Home Soon".  |

Hmmmm, let me see if I can narrow this down to a Top 10.....
Bow River - Cold Chisel
Brunswick - Weddings Partiers Anything
How To Make Gravy - Paul Kelly
Throw You Arms Around Me - Hunters & Collectors
Curtains - The Saints
These Days - Powderfinger
Lighthouse - The Waifs
Dust Bowl Dance - Mumford & Sons
Peaches & Cream - John Butler Trio
Kosciusko - Midnight Oil
That was hard! The only way I could narrow it down to 10 is by only putting one song per artist in there. And I could have added any number of Beatles songs to the list. Interesting that 9 out of 10 songs are by Australian artists. I had to squeeze one non-Aussie song in there!

The first two that popped into my head…
HOME by Blue October. I’m putting part of the chorus somewhere in my house (Dancing in the kitchen in the pale moonlight / Only care in the world is that our kids are all right). ❤️
STAY WITH ME by Sam Smith.
