Shawna Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 Oh, I'm very picky picky when it comes to the songs. They have to really have meant (or mean) something to me for me to choose them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtstuff Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 Man this was one of my tougher ones to come with. I can't believe I had to leave out "Angie", "Fire", "Do It Again", and "River Of Dreams." So Here Goes: 1. Good Vibrations. A feel good song. Supposedly Brian Wilson got the idea from his mother who said animals could sense from a person if that person was going to be a kind person by the invisible vibrations that the person gave off. 2. Aquarius. I believe it was '69 when it came out. 1969 The Mets win the world series, Joe Namath predicts and delivers a Super Bowl win for the New York Jets. Of course we have Woodstock, and just in case anyone forgot it was the year tha "Mankind" walked on the moon. 3. Glad All Over. It hadn't of been for the Beatles the DC 5 would have been the number one group in America. 4. Somebody To Love. Grace Slick and the gang. Speaking earlier of Woodstock I think the Jefferson Airplane performed this at the little gathering in Bethel, New York. 5. My Girl. The smooth sounds of the Temps. 6. Brandy. I really liked this song when it came out and I still do dig it. I believe it came out one summer that I was at Army Reserve camp at Fort Drum New York. 7. Bend Me, Shake Me by the American Breed. I had forgotten how much I liked this song when I heard it the other day on the radio. 8. He Ain't Heavy, He's my Brother. A great, great legendary group in the Hollies. 9. Hurt So Good. John Mellenkamp, the man from Seymour, Indiana. 10. Got My Mind Set On You. I remember when the video of this came out you could tell poor ole George was not well. I thought the video was really cute. Well guys that's it for me. It was a toughie this time, but I really enjoy the challenge each week for our top ten. rtstuff "Brandy you're a fine girl what a good wife you would be, but my life, my love, my lady is the sea." I think he has been at sea too long if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted June 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 Sweet Jane, I apologise publicly to you. It's not Matin's fault, it's mine. There were a lot of people online, the Thread had been inactive for almost 7 hours (except for my Birthday Greetings to Shawna), and I requested Martin to commence the vote and give you 3 votes next time. If I'd known it would cause you hurt I certainly would have waited. Darryl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazooka Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 1. Tell Mama - Etta James .. This bazooka's favorite type of tune -- uptempo Muscle Shoals Soul. 2. Fast Car - Tracy Chapman 3. Fire - The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown .. Forget the bizarre theatrics. I just find this song entertaining musically. 4. Because The Night - Patti Smith Group 5. Daniel - Elton John 6. You've Really Got A Hold On Me - Smokey Robinson & The Miracles .. And Smokey's memorable rendition on Sesame Street .. ( 'U' Really Got A Hold On Me ) 7. Somebody To Love - Jefferson Airplane .. Dig that guitar! 8. Glad All Over - The Dave Clark 5 9. Werewolves of London - Warren Zevon .. 'Little old lady got mutilated late last night ' 10.My Boy Lollipop - Millie Small (<) .. An illustration of bazooka's eclectic tastes. Something about this song always catches me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OLD 55 Posted June 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 Please don't feel upset if I change the way you've listed your songs when you've nominated. When we have the majority of the nominations in, I go through my extensive music library, sometimes the Net for later songs, and try to find out exactly the wording of how they were released - song title and artist; e.g John Mellencamp started as Johnny Cougar, then John Cougar, then John Cougar Mellencamp. That doesn't make me any smarter than anyone else here, it just means I have the resources and the time to do it, and I'm not just "showing off". Also I believe I have a responsibility to Carl and the Songfacts Site to make our data as accurate as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OLD 55 Posted July 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 My Boy Lollipop - Millie Small (<) .. An illustration of bazooka's eclectic tastes. Something about this song always catches me. Many thanks to my friend bazooka ! In the U.S. this song was released as by Millie Small. In the U.K. and Australia she was just known as "Millie". AS ALWAYS, it's going to be a very close Top Ten , especially the latter half where there's a cluster of songs vying for a place. :guitar: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
