[PSUwolf]

This song - by the Righteous Brothers - back in 1964 was the most played song on American Radio in the 20th Century with over 8.2 million plays. Maybe the greatest duo of all time

I had a design professor in a small class at PSU. He was the "architect" that she was married to.

Trashed another poster’s choice? Hardly. I would guess you may be the only person that views it that way. The larger point my post was making was about the diversity of musical tastes. It’s just music, no personal judgements being made.

Nice try.

My way
Judy Suite Blue Eyes
Helplessly Hoping
I left my heart in San Francisco
White Christmas
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
There used to be a ballpark right here
Yesterday
Let it be
Hey Jude
Seven Bridges Road
Hole in the world tonight
Candle in the Wind

That song always brings this one to mind:

I don't know what is a perfect song. It depends what your mood is and what you are up for but the best songs are the ones that touch my heart and they are usually sad songs. So there is this one.

 

[Meat Lab]

For example, I think this a great song, but I don't consider it perfect. I think it would be better if they removed about 80% of the backup vocals (doowop?!?).



These songs, on the other hand, I consider great and can think of no changes that would make them better.

I love the almost psychedelic vibe of this:


Crank this one up:


I love the visual story this one tells:


This is obviously very subjective so have at it.

Joni. Perfection.

Beato recently shot a video with Mary Spender discussing Jim Croce’s “Operator (That’s Not the Way It Feels” which is my favorite Croce song. So damn lyrically smart and beautiful.

I recommend you check out Mary Spender’s YouTube channel, and her main site. https://www.maryspender.com/ As someone that still buys physical albums, I'm glad that she still puts out CDs, but they sell out fast as she can't afford to print too many.
