INSANE list, March 26!!

[SAT-I need more room!!]

Started a new tourney today, and I will be doing another Hall of Fame discussion on the Rock-n-Roll board!


5457. Guinnevere-Crosby, Stills & Nash 1969 (new addition)

Never loved this, but wanted to include it since it is such a great album!

5456. Your Everything-Keith Urban 1999 (new addition)

Like I said yesterday, Keith is pretty decent. I won't turn him off.

5455. Sherry-Frankie Valli & Four Seasons 1962

One of their signature tunes, but I'm tired of it.

5454. Aqualung-Jethro Tull 1971

For some reason, their signature tune. There are others that are better.

5453. Hang on Sloopy-McCoys 1965

Fun 60s song, but overplayed.

5452. Social Disease-Bon Jovi 1986

Yes, another album cut from Slippery When Wet. I really loved that album back then.

5451. Walking After Midnight-Patsy Cline 1957 (new addition)

Yes Kitty, it's ranked this low! I like Patsy and respect her, just not someone I go out of my way to listen to.

5450. Ain’t Nothing ‘Bout You-Brooks & Dunn 2001 (new addition)

These guys are ok. Similar to Keith Urban-won't turn it on, won't turn it off.

5449. Lovin’ All Night-Patty Loveless 2003 (new addition)

Another Bluegrass effort from Patty. I really respect her.

5448. Been To Canaan-Carole King 1972/73

Love Carole King, but this is one of her lesser singles.

5447. Say Good-bye-Tammy Cochran 2001 (new addition)

Yes ballad from this newer country singer.

5446. I Made it Through the Rain-Barry Manilow 1980/81

Good, but I like the early stuff better.

5445. Shake a Hand-Paul McCartney 1999

One of the covers on Paul's ALMOST all covers album, Run Devil, Run. Incidentally, H2 & Dodger, I think you'd enjoy this album!

5444. Pop a Top-Alan Jackson 1999 (new addition)

Alan's good, but this is a bit corny.

5443. Love You Inside Out-Bee Gees 1979 (new additon)

No, this wasn't on the list before. I never knew it, and I think it was a number 1 single! Not bad and not overplayed (obviously).

5442. Peaceful, Easy Feeling-Eagles 1972/73

This really is a nice song, just killed by classic rock radio.

5441. Down in the Boondocks-Billy Joe Royal 1965

Cool song that I think is dying out on oldies radio.

5440. Burn-Deep Purple 1974 (new addition)

One of the two most popular cuts from the Coverdale lineup. More metal than many Purple cuts, actually.

5439. Glamorous Life-Sheila E. 1984

I really think she had good singles! This being my least fave of 3.

5438. The Letter-Joe Cocker 1970

Sorry, I prefer the Box Tops.


Have at it!

[Dawn]

5457. Guinnevere-Crosby, Stills & Nash 1969 (new addition)
Excellent cut from a great album.

5456. Your Everything-Keith Urban 1999 (new addition)
Not familiar.

5455. Sherry-Frankie Valli & Four Seasons 1962
Not one of my favorites from them - I tend to like their mid-late 60s and 70s material more.

5454. Aqualung-Jethro Tull 1971
I like most Jethro Tull songs, but I've never warmed up to this one that much.

5453. Hang on Sloopy-McCoys 1965
I agree, this is overplayed on oldies radio.

5452. Social Disease-Bon Jovi 1986
I tend to prefer the singles from that album.

5451. Walking After Midnight-Patsy Cline 1957 (new addition)
Patsy had a great voice, but this is one of my lesser faves of hers.

5450. Ain’t Nothing ‘Bout You-Brooks & Dunn 2001 (new addition)
Don't know this one.

5449. Lovin’ All Night-Patty Loveless 2003 (new addition)
Ditto.

5448. Been To Canaan-Carole King 1972/73
I've grown to really like this in recent years. Not her best, but good.

5447. Say Good-bye-Tammy Cochran 2001 (new addition)
I may have heard this, but I'm not positive.

5446. I Made it Through the Rain-Barry Manilow 1980/81
Nice, but he had quite a few I like more.

5445. Shake a Hand-Paul McCartney 1999
I should get that album sometime! I don't think I've heard this one.

5444. Pop a Top-Alan Jackson 1999 (new addition)
Good remake of a country classic - my parents had the 45 of Jim Ed Brown's version when I was growing up.

5443. Love You Inside Out-Bee Gees 1979 (new additon)
Excellent song that brings back so many memories! Love it!

5442. Peaceful, Easy Feeling-Eagles 1972/73
Great early Eagles, but overplayed, I agree.

5441. Down in the Boondocks-Billy Joe Royal 1965
Not bad, but I much prefer 'Cherry Hill Park'.

5440. Burn-Deep Purple 1974 (new addition)
I've only heard this a few times - not their best.

5439. Glamorous Life-Sheila E. 1984
Great upbeat 80s tune with excellent percussion work.

5438. The Letter-Joe Cocker 1970
Love this! I'm not that fond of much of Joe's work, but I bought his greatest hits cassette for this song.

[djdave]

5457. Guinnevere-Crosby, Stills & Nash 1969 (new addition)
Like it, but even better ones from the album.

5456. Your Everything-Keith Urban 1999 (new addition)
Pass. Just pass...

5455. Sherry-Frankie Valli & Four Seasons 1962
I love this, yet I like "Big Girls" even more!

5454. Aqualung-Jethro Tull 1971
Great, deserved classic.

5453. Hang on Sloopy-McCoys 1965
Love it. Great drum intro.

5452. Social Disease-Bon Jovi 1986
Love that intro! Yes, that's the type of guy I am...

5451. Walking After Midnight-Patsy Cline 1957 (new addition)
Great tune, the '61 remake's not quite as good (the one I THINK more people are familiar with).

5450. Ain’t Nothing ‘Bout You-Brooks & Dunn 2001 (new addition)
Some good early tunes at least.

5449. Lovin’ All Night-Patty Loveless 2003 (new addition)
Never liked her music much.

5448. Been To Canaan-Carole King 1972/73
Great overlooked one. I like "Corazon" even more.

5447. Say Good-bye-Tammy Cochran 2001 (new addition)
Pass.

5446. I Made it Through the Rain-Barry Manilow 1980/81
For some reason, not as remembered as much as lower-charting "Old Songs". Dated though for '81, and much like his earlier tunes.

5445. Shake a Hand-Paul McCartney 1999
Should look this up sometime.

5444. Pop a Top-Alan Jackson 1999 (new addition)
Weird song.

5443. Love You Inside Out-Bee Gees 1979 (new additon)
Love this.

5442. Peaceful, Easy Feeling-Eagles 1972/73
Good tune; I've always considered this a more "country" effort by them.

5441. Down in the Boondocks-Billy Joe Royal 1965
Forever fave.

5440. Burn-Deep Purple 1974 (new addition)
Awesome song.

5439. Glamorous Life-Sheila E. 1984
I know quite a few tunes, yet I only know she had 2 top 40 hits. Still LOVE both of 'em.

5438. The Letter-Joe Cocker 1970

Sorry, I prefer this. My fave of all of his!

[H2IZCOOL]

5457. Guinnevere-Crosby, Stills & Nash 1969 (new addition)
I have the album, but I don't think I've listened to this song in years. Never liked it that much either.

5456. Your Everything-Keith Urban 1999 (new addition)
Don't know it.

5455. Sherry-Frankie Valli & Four Seasons 1962
A classic. One of those songs that I can remember exactly where I was when I first heard it. Driving on Commonwealth Avenue in Boston on an autumn evening, and the DJ on WMEX played the song for the first time. It had such a fresh new sound. I loved it immediately. Still do. All time top 250.

5454. Aqualung-Jethro Tull 1971
Yeah, it's OK. I'm really not a huge Tull fan.

5453. Hang on Sloopy-McCoys 1965
I really liked this the first 10,042 times I heard it. But by the second day, it was getting tiring.

5452. Social Disease-Bon Jovi 1986
Not my fave by them.

5451. Walking After Midnight-Patsy Cline 1957 (new addition)
Patsy is probably my fave all time female country act. (sorry, Adam). This was the first one of hers that I ever heard. Fine song.

5450. Ain’t Nothing ‘Bout You-Brooks & Dunn 2001 (new addition)
Don't know them.

5449. Lovin’ All Night-Patty Loveless 2003 (new addition)
Don't know it.

5448. Been To Canaan-Carole King 1972/73
This wasn't bad. They used to play it quite a bit in Maine back then.

5447. Say Good-bye-Tammy Cochran 2001 (new addition)
Don't know it.

5446. I Made it Through the Rain-Barry Manilow 1980/81
Not in the top level of Barry's songs.

5445. Shake a Hand-Paul McCartney 1999
I asume this is the old Faye Adams R&B classic. Thats a good song. I don't think I've ever heard Paul do it.

5444. Pop a Top-Alan Jackson 1999 (new addition)
Don't know it.

5443. Love You Inside Out-Bee Gees 1979 (new additon)
You hit this right on the head, Adam. Great song, just not played enough.

5442. Peaceful, Easy Feeling-Eagles 1972/73
I LOVED this song back then. Used to play it on my guitar and sing it all the time. One of their great, simple, country songs.

5441. Down in the Boondocks-Billy Joe Royal 1965
This is a great song, but of the three Billy Joe songs that I'm familiar with (I Knew You When, Cherry Hill Park are the others) it ranks third.

5440. Burn-Deep Purple 1974 (new addition)
Don't think I know it.

5439. Glamorous Life-Sheila E. 1984
Eh.

5438. The Letter-Joe Cocker 1970
A case of three totally different versions of a song (Box Tops, Arbors, Joe C.) all being very good. I like all three interpretations equally.

It's definitely a neat novelty!

5442. Peaceful, Easy Feeling-Eagles 1972/73
Good tune; I've always considered this a more "country" effort by them.

Definitely from their country period!

5457 - 5452. I don't know any of these.

I don't know.....I think Crazy reminds me too much of Willie Nelson, who wrote it.

Still surprises me you don't like Patty!
