hollies65 Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Is it Marv who loves the Sanford Townshend tune also...probably at #1...I like that song..but seeing it at #1 on two lists I must ask...Is this a Canadian thing?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvin Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Yup Andy and I listened to "Smoke" a zillion times. It never made #1 in Canada, but we both know a good pop hook and snazzy time signatures when we hear them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pierre Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Although I think there has been another thread about this topic, I'm going to jump in again! I wonder if any of my choices stayed the same?1. Making Plans For Nigel - XTC2. Two out of three ain't bad - Meat Loaf3. Year of the Cat - Al Stewart4. Cruel to be Kind - Nick Lowe5. I Don't Like Mondays - Boomtown Rats6. In the Meantime/Some Other Time - Badfinger7. (What's So Funny About) Peace, Love and Understanding - the Elvis Costello version8. Maybe I'm Amazed - Paul McCartney9. Theme From Shaft - Isaac Hayes10. Mr. Big Stuff - Jean Knight(figured I'd avoid EC/Rasp. stuff) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hollies65 Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Yeah...I'm a big Al Stewart fan...'Sand In Your Shoes' from The Year Of The Cat album should have been a top ten hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les R. Posted October 31, 2007 Author Share Posted October 31, 2007 Eric, how about YOUR Top 10?? (and do please let us in on what your personal favorites of your OWN music are too!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
