> I'm just sitting around here, bored, and I was wondering - we have a fairly diverse spread here. What are your favourite songs? I mean, you needn't pick one song each, but a sampling of your favourites would be nice to know.

You've said it already: I can't pick just one, or even just a few. But here are some, as they come to mind:

Songs by Gordon Lightfoot:
"Canadian Railroad Trilogy"
"If You Could Read My Mind" (I *loathe* the dance re-mix that someone made of this song)
"Restless"
"Seven Island Suite"
"The Last Time I Saw Her Face"
"Just about everything else Gordon Lightfoot has ever written"

Songs by Harrod & Funck (a local folk/pop duo):
"Your Voice at Tidewater"
"Lion Song"
"Something" (really, that's the title)
"Come Clean"
"Marked Man"
"Wind in the Net"
"Just about everything else Harrod & Funck have ever written"

Songs by James Taylor:
"Copperline"
"Something in the Way She Moves"
"Mexico"

Songs by Simon & Garfunkel:
"For Emily, Wherever I May Find Her"
"The Boxer"
"America"
"The Sound of Silence"
"I Am a Rock"

On the lighter side:
"Funky Town"
"She Blinded Me With Science"
"You Be Illin'"
"Billie Jean"
"Still Rock N' Roll to Me"
"Just about everything that comes on the 'Disco Hour' on the local radio"

On the classical side:
"That song by that guy that has a beautiful flowing flute part in the middle"
"That other song by that other guy that has a lively violin part in the middle"
"Those other songs by those guys that just sound really great and relaxing"

On the thrash-metal side:
"Come on -- they all sound equally awful to me"

The affISSionado
