“People keep talking they can say what they like, but all i know is everything’s going to be alright”
I have never been a fan of Memes or tagging people to do them or being tagged but I have a hard time resisting the book and music ones.
Jerk with a camera [JWC] never tagged me but it is the irresistible music-ness of it that locked me in. For the Meme I am to list my top five favourite musical artists and then list my top five favourite songs from each one. Mentioned just recently in this post keeping the same top five list of anything for more than a few hours, days, weeks if I’m lucky is hard for me. If I was ever faced with a REAL LIFE TOP FIVE DECISION BIG BROTHER SAYS YOU MUST CHOOSE. I’d be fooked.
The first four in NO particular order are SET IN STONE. The songs not so much but I’ll do my best to pick my favs or most listened to. The fifth artist I am finding near impossible to decide on.
Runnin’ Out of Fools [Blacklisted, 2002]
Margaret vs. Pauline [Fox Confessor Brings the Flood, 2006]
Favorite [The Tigers Have Spoken, 2004]
We’ve Never Met [Furnace Room Lullaby, 2000]
Set Out Running [Furnace Room Lullaby, 2000]
The Pot [10,000 Days, 2006]
Eulogy [Aenima, 1996]
Parabola [Lateralus 2001]
Aenima [Aenima, 1996]
Intolerance [Undertow, 1993]
Putting The Damage On [Boys for Pele, 1996]
Glory of the 80’s [To Venus and Back, 1999]
Taxi Ride [Scarlet’s Walk, 2002]
Cruel [From The Choirgirl Hotel, 1998]
Crucify [Little Earthquakes, 1991]
Matthew
Rockey Mountain High
Annie’s Song
Take Me Home Country Roads
Some Days Are Diamonds (some days are stones)
This last one is SO HARD FOR ME I think I am going to keep with the trend of Artists I have seen live and pick:
Not Ready to Make Nice [Taking The Long Way, 2006]
Everybody Knows [Taking The Long Way, 2006]
Cowboy Take Me Away [Fly, 1999]
Travelin’ Soldier [Home, 2002]
Hello Mr. Heartache [Fly, 1999]

Of course, JD has to make the list! That’s a no-brainer. But The Dixie Chicks? WTF!

jebuz fook you know what? i thought i was keeping it easier sticking with people who i had seen live BUT not until i read your comment did i realize that i have seen Van Morrison, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan from all of whom i could for sure have picked five songs … not to mention Portishead, Holly McNarland (although her i considered), Ani Difranco, Natalie Merchant and Sinead O’Connor. .. and the list goes on CRAP!

I was surprised to see both Tool and the Chicks on there but I love every Tool song you picked and almost every Chicks one. You’ve got good taste, lady!
