Jenny Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 This was a toughie for me, and I'm sure if I took a lot of time the order would change 100 times, so I just did this quick: 1. Time After Time - Cyndi Lauper ("if you're lost, you can look and you will find me") 2. L.A. Woman - The Doors ("got the mojo risin'") 3. Buddy Holly - Weezer (love the song and the video!) 4. Allentown - Billy Joel ("every child had a pretty good shot, to get at least as good as their old man got, something happened on the way to that place, they threw an American flag in our face") 5. Otherside - RHCP (don't know any lyrics, it's just cool) 6. Smooth Operator - Sade (what a voice!) 7. Love Child - Supremes ("no child of mine will be bearing, the name of shame I've been wearing") 8. Zombie - The Cranberries (again, just cool) 9. Everybody Hurts - REM (great video, too) 10. First Cut is The Deepest - Rod Stewart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Levis Posted May 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 I changed the colour scheme because this one is special and red and blue are so boring, don't you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Joe Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 I do so think. And it just happens that green is my favorite color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levis Posted May 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 Mine too! And Purple complements it quite well, I'd say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Levis Posted May 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 I'm sorry... You know I'd LOVE to have included those votes. Under the Milky Way at #3 and a good boost to Otherside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OLD 55 Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 Well done Radhi. I reckon you handled that like a veteran. Now everyone will want #12s, #13s,........... And I used to have a pair of green suede shoes when I was about 17 ! (Not blue). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 Mine too! And Purple complements it quite well, I'd say My two favorite colors, green and violet. I have two rooms featuring them. Ya did a good job kiddo! I like it. What happened to that sneaky, two timin' #11 song?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c_s_1987 Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 Are we going to keep people guessing about the two time #11? It would be nice to see someone getting it right. I'm glad to see Badge finally making a list of some sort. I might nominate it a third time, but probably not for a while. Hopefully someone else will nominate it by then.

edna Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 Yes, nice list!! I too want to know what was the famous #11 song... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levis Posted May 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 You did not guess?! Secret Agent Man by Johnny Rivers made it to the number 11 spot both times it was nominated - in Top Ten #52 and also way back in Top Ten #13. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 Oh... I would have never guessed... I think it was the only 60s song left... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 It was literally the last one anyone would have guessed... It's a great song, and I thought it was going to do much better than it ended up. Wouldn't it have been something if it had made #11 a third time?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dappled Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 (edited) Who else recorded Secret Agent Man? I know the Ventures did, but they did every TV theme... Edited June 1, 2007 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
