Steel2Velvet Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 When one considers a crime involving the mind, one might think confusion, distraction or altered states. Well Songfact's own psyche culprit has decided to challenge our logic in picking one gigantic, blockbuster hit song over another. Now, this is truly a crime; as we investigate Mind Crime Kenne's Personal Top Ten: This personal list covers many different genres and eras for a diverse variety of 50 of my all-time favorite songs, while mostly reflecting on songs from my lifetime. There should be at least 10 for everybody and these songs were all relative hits, so much listening shouldn't be needed. This list has many types of artists and songs that are different from the previous 10's, while there is a good percentage of coincidental duplicates. Thank you for participating in this voting list. ~ Mind Crime Kenne Baker Street – Foo Fighters Beat It – Michael Jackson Beds are Burning – Midnight Oil Boys of Summer – Don Henley Close to You – Maxi Priest Crazy – Gnarls Barkley Dani California – Red Hot Chili Peppers December – Collective Soul Don’t Dream it’s Over – Crowded House Don’t Let Me Get Me (Hazard to Myself) - Pink Down in a Hole – Alice in Chains Drive – The Cars Enjoy the Silence – Depeche Mode Fade to Black - Metallica Feel Good, Inc. – Gorillaz Glycerine - Bush Good Lovin’ – Young Rascals Head Over Heels – Tears For Fears Holiday in Cambodia – Dead Kennedys In the End – Linkin Park Knights of Cydonia - Muse Lean on Me – Bill Withers Learning to Fly – Pink Floyd Learning to Fly – Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers Let Music Play – Shannon Lodi – Creedence Clearwater Revival London Calling – The Clash Lovesong – The Cure Mama I’m Coming Home – Ozzy Osbourne More Than a Feeling – Boston My Girl – The Temptations Never Been Any Reason – Head East November Rain – Guns n’ Roses On Bended Knee – Boyz II Men One – U2 One Love/People Get Ready – Bob Marley & the Wailers Ordinary World – Duran Duran Over the Hills and Far Away – Led Zeppelin Return to Innocence - Enigma Roses – Outkast Say It Right – Nelly Furtado Silent Lucidity – Queensrÿche Southern Cross – Crosby, Stills, & Nash Spirit in the Sky – Norman Greenbaum Strawberry Letter #23 – The Brothers Johnson Take My Breath Away – Berlin True Faith – New Order Unchained Melody – The Righteous Brothers Under the Milky Way – The Church Weight, The – The Band Audio Playist After you have robbed Peter to pay Paul, go ahead and VOTE!

Ombre Vivante Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 01. Don’t Dream it’s Over – Crowded House (I almost included this one in my list) 02. Under the Milky Way – The Church (ditto) 03. Drive – The Cars 04. Ordinary World – Duran Duran 05. Enjoy the Silence – Depeche Mode 06. December – Collective Soul 07. Head Over Heels – Tears For Fears 08. Close To You - Maxi Priest 09. True Faith - NewOrder 10. Glycerine - Bush I had forgotten about "Close To You." I have to get that album or single I don't know why, but I was expecting some Stone Temple Pilots in there, something like "Sour Girl." Overall, this one was easier because these songs are timbrally magnetic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 09. True Faith - NewOrder That's surprising it barely made your list, since it was in your own PT10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 Oh, I have to listen to the list, Kenne... I don't think I know most of the songs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lea Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 Theres only a couple of songs I don't know. There are about 20 that are top favorites of mine and I would put at #1 on any normal TT. There are a few I removed from my PTT because they showed up on other lists. You have one here thats on my list but I'm not changing it. This is gonna be very tough fo me. I always listen to the lists on Sunday morning and this could be one I set up myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
