I have to say that I like all of your lists

I have a hard time ever trying to rank what bands I like in what order and what songs are my favorite. I feel like I'm hurting other bands I like by not including them. I do enjoy seeing what other people have to say though, you've all made lots of choices I would have probably made too.

 

[IWasBored]

1 buddy holly--everyday
2 buddy holly--crying, waiting, hoping
3 buddy holly--that'll be the day
4 buddy holly--it's so easy
5 buddy holly--ollie vee
6 buddy holly--peggie sue
7 buddy holly--words of love
...you get the picture

Radiohead- Just
The Music- Getaway

Hi LCK, Welcome

This topic was really recently discussed but had slipped back to page 2 which is why you prolly didnt see it. So I've merged it and now you can see what brilliant taste some others have as well.


I love about 80% of your list too

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

can't not like someone who likes the Clash

even though Angie doesn't dig them she's still cool though

 

[Angela Harlem]

Actually the 20% I wasn't keen on was The Waterboys (I dont think I know that song therefore have no opinion on it) and Kite.

 

[LCK]

Thanks Angela, lol- next time I should scroll down a wee bit further first. I love to read other ppl's choices, except it makes me get greedy and want to add to my own list. Can't believe I left off the Stones, the Who, and Pink Floyd! So much great music out there.
