1. (Tie) Watching The Wheels/Imagine The first song's always been one of those I love hearing when it gets played somewhere. Something about the music in it and the way it's sung makes me smile, it's such a great song and it's always been one of my absolute favorites of his. And the latter song-one of the very few in this world that perfectly encapsulates my worldview. Overplayed? Sure, as others have stated. But I personally never tire of hearing it, it's still a classic.
2. Jealous Guy That piano is so gorgeous. And the lyrics are just...wow. Beautiful, heartfelt, emotional song.
3. (Just Like) Starting Over Such an upbeat, bouncy, happy song, and I love how kinda "doo-wop"-ish it feels at times. I'm glad that, at least, he left this world with a positive outlook.
4. Woman Plain and simple, a song that I think every woman would want to have sung to/about them.
5. Mind Games I like the music in this one, too. Sorta "Whiter Shade Of Pale"-esque, in a way.
Yeah. That looks about right (I seem to go more for the lighter side of John's music
). Lots of other great songs mentioned, though, too-"Working-Class Hero", "Instant Karma", and "How Do You Sleep?" (OUCH. Talk about a smackdown. But the music in the chorus is incredibly cool) are a few other particular favorites of mine, too.
