Barry White - Can't Get Enough of Your Love

Currently stuck in my head.

I listen to oldies all the time. A list would take days to make.

[tropical_fishy]

Bon Jovi-- Livin' on a prayer (obnoxious? Perhaps. But when they played it at the 80's dance, EVERYONE knew the words), Bad Medicine, You Give Love A Bad Name.

AC/DC-- You shook me all night long, Back in Black, TNT, Highway to Hell (can I say that here?)

The Who--Baba O'Riley (aka: "Teenage Wasteland.")

The Beach Boys-- 409, California Girls, etc.

The Beatles-- well, almost anything. My favorite is Norweigian Wood, but... When I'm Sixty-Four, Eight Days a Week, Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da and Drive My Car seem more the type. And who HASN'T heard "I get hiiiiigh with a little help from my friends" and "Lucy in the skyyyy with diamonds..."

Billy Joel-- Movin' Out! Piano Man, annnnnndddd Only the Good Die Young.

Steppenwolf: Born to Be Wild, Magic Carpet Ride.

Carly Simon: You're So Vain

The Clash: London Calling, Tainted Love.

Counting Crows: Big Yellow Taxi. This is a cover, and I have NO idea who did the original, sorry... but most people know it, I think?

Def Leppard: Pour some sugar on me

Dexy's Midnight Runners/Save Ferris-- Come on Eileen!

Duran Duran-- There's a few; Ordinary World, Come Undone, Hungry like the wolf, etc. Cheesy music, but fun.

Jefferson Starship!!-- We built this city

John Cougar Mellencamp-- Hurt So Good

Rolling Stones-- erm. Satisfaction? Gimme Shelter is closer to what you picked though, and a better song imho.

Lynyrd Skynyrd-- eh. Sweet Home Alabama

Queeeeeeennnnnnnnn. Bohemian Rhapsody, Another one bites the dust, we will rock you, fat bottomed girls (perhaps the best song ever. Discuss.)

Roy Orbison-- Pretty Woman

The Scorpions-- Rock you (like a hurricane)

Soft Cell-- Tainted love (Isn't this a cover too? I don't even know anymore...)

Third Eye Blind-- Semi-charmed life

Three Dog Night-- Joy to the world/One/Shambala

Meh. At least I finally organized my iTunes.

[grEnAlEins]

Lynyrd Skynyrd-- eh. Sweet Home Alabama

Free Bird??

[tropical_fishy]

Free Bird??

It was already mentioned. Don't be redundantly redundant, that's my motto!

[Maggot6]

The first 1:15 of Beethovens 9th Symphony (for some odd reason it's on almost every windows computer out there..)

"beautiful world" Louis Armstrong.....At least I think that's the title.
