It IS fun! No, really, I mean it.... Last night I was telling Sean that he needed to start working on his list... I was changing clothes for bedtime and said to him "You need to tell me 5 songs right now to get this started, Mister... Go." LOL, since I was undressing he agreed that he'd tell me one song title for each item of clothing I took off. The problem was I was only wearing 4 items... Well, it really wasn't a problem at all because I still got my 5 songs and we both were happy about that. Now, today he's calling me radomly throughout the day from his cell phone... I wasn't here so he left a message and all he said were song titles and artists, then hung up! LOL (I kept my clothes on for those, promise. ) Is anybody else having THIS MUCH fun with this game yet?! Tee-hee!

So, seriously now... I had 95 songs last night, and that was just from the disks on my rack... I moved over to M's and had to shut it down for the night... brain overload.
But, on a happier note, I remembered more titles than I thought I would... Of course, my fumbling with beat and lyrics would help M decipher for me...
Of all things, we got hung up on Fleetwood Mac last night... THEY have too many damn good songs...
I'll be back this weekend to "share". I must say, Dreamer and Jay, I see a lotta' good picks... this is gonna' be tough...

Yes, one song, but it's my favorite song in all the world, so it's going to be on the list no matter what. Silent All These Years - Tori

Good thing you are giving us 2 months to do this, Mary...I probably won't have time to compile my list until I'm done with my 6-week orientation at the hospital. Glad I saw this though...atleast I can be thinking on it.

Just want to let Mary know (as I'm sure she'll get a kick out of it) that I grabbed a pencil and notebook immediately after reading the first post of this thread. I will be participating in this. Oh, yes.

If this was a list of our top 100 favorite people, Mallory would get the full 25 points. And I'd protest in order to try and raise that maximum.
Just thought I'd point that out.

btw, I will gladly be the representative of the Country genre. It looks like I really have no choice.
