The Seeker Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 I'm happy to see My Friends and Sweet Soul Music (I nominated that one more than 2.5 years ago ) on the list. But I'm extremely happy about Castles In The Air Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skybluesky Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 I'm happy to see My Friends and Sweet Soul Music (I nominated that one more than 2.5 years ago ) on the list. I didn't realize it had ever been nominated. I think Sweet Soul Music should have made the ten ages ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky Posted February 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 You Never Even Called Me By My Name (The Perfect Country & Western Song) - David Allen Coe (1975) - I like this song but I can't stand him so much that I don't even want to vote for him. I know Peach, me too. Dislike him I mean. I really didn't expect any votes for the song, but I had to nominate it for my kid. It would have been his birthday Monday of this week. He first heard it when he was 12 or 13, and the last verse just tickled him. He used to put his arm around me & sing it to me. I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison ... He loved that line. Great Top Ten! I even like the songs I didn't vote for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 I'm glad Middle Of The Road made it. Great Tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 What a bunch of amazing songs!! I´m glad R.B.Greaves is there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lea Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Not my favorite top but it'll work. If I would have put "Always The Sun", as my number 2, it might have made the list. Maybe next time. "I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know", will also get a renom at some point I'm sure. I love that song. Thanks to everyone that voted on "Winter Windows" as well. The lyrics of that song are my favorite part about it. It has a melancholy sadness to it. It will be back as well Nice ten on the whole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeBB Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 I´m glad R.B.Greaves is there... Am I the only one who think that Take A Letter Maria is more than a little creepy? If Every Breath You Take is the stalkers' anthem, then R.B.Greaves is the pin-up boy for sexual harrassment in the workplace. Great song anyway ;-) LBBB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 You do get the impression that he was just sort of waiting for the wife to take off, huh? He didn't waste any time shedding tears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Most of rock lyrics are about sexual harrassment everywhere... I see nothing evil in the fact that a guy seeks consolation when his wife is cheating on him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
