I like some country music, especially The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band( I know, some of their stuff is a little bit more rockish.). I think that Martina McBride and Vince Gill have good voices. Some of the older stuff (like Hank Willams Sr.) is okay as long as it's not to twangy.
I would have to say that "Never Say Goodbye" by Bon Jovi (off their "Slippery When Wet"album) really brings back memories of my senior year of high school (1987): enjoying still being a kid and not having too many adult resposibilities; having a crush on a guy and not knowing if he likes you back; a younger kid dying in a car accident; sitting on a swing at the playground after graduation and wondering what comes next.
I've heard that Elvis song before. It's "Are You Lonesome Tonight."
Also,in the song "Wendy" by the Beach Boys someone coughs near the beginning of the musical break.
