The Songfactors' Choice Top #32


Farin

Recommended Posts

not exactly, because opposed to the Ultimate Ten, I'd like to keep the Regular Ten in a (admittedly unofficial) schedule, so that we can finish by friday (because quite a few members aren't online on the weekends) and so that we can start the next one on monday

for the Ultimate Tens time isn't that important, they can wait a day or two...

Hey guys and gals I'm back in circulation. I have been real busy getting back in the groove as a high school Biology teacher. I have also been consumed with college football especially my beloved "Thundering Herd" of Marshall.

I have cut back on my evening computer time due to rise and shine at 5:15 am every morning has necessitated my lights out at 9:30 pm.

Any who I'm back and ready to vote.

1. American Pie A true rock anthem

2. Hey Jude. My second favorite Beatles tune behind only "Let It Be"

3. Satisfaction Mick and the boys do it right. My second favorite Stones hit behind "Paint It Black"

4. Blue Suede Shoes One of the great Rock-A-Billy hits of all times

5. Already Gone. I saw this one in concert. Great performance

6. Let It Ride. A good driving rock tune. I went from West Virginia to Myrtle Beach on "Let It Ride" and "China Grove".

7. Ring Of Fire I consider this one of the best from the "Man In Black"

8. Sweet Home Alabama. I can't help but think of Forrest Gump when I hear this tune.

9. Shambala. A hit from one of my favorite groups. Three Dog Night

10. Maybellene. A song from one of the pioneers of Rock and Roll; "Hail, Hail, Rock and Roll"

No,we're pleased to have your nominations Batman. I've included them above, and the only person who's voted is rtstuff. IF he wants to change his Top Ten he'd most welcome to. Looking forward to getting your Top Ten songs in order from the List of Nominations also.

Welcome back rt. Good to see you. (I get up at 5.15 a.m., go to the bathroom, and go back to bed for another couple of hours).
