Songs that have stood the test of time.

Somewhere Over The Rainbow never gets old, and always compels me to listen. 

dbtom2, Speaking of Jimmy Webb & Glen Campbell, I gotta put in "Wichita Lineman" as one of the all time greats.

The best cover of "All Along The Watchtower" is Dave Mason's. What  voice!

"Imagine", by John Lennon. Classic and profound.

"Lives In The Balance", Jackson Browne's best and just as relevant today.

"And It Stoned Me" by Van Morrison

"Have A Little Faith in Me" by John Hiatt, America's best songwriter.


Of course, this is all a matter of opinion. A great son is one that reaches a listener and moves them on some level. The classic ones do that forever.

Just happen to spin a song "Tea for Two" covered by Della Reese -- super great!
I hope that Jmc... won't relate this song to "Happy Birthday" like he did to "Hava Nagila" LOL!

wolfie, Your post reminded me of Dave Mason. What a great talent! Often underrated IMO because he was in other bands that had the press writing about those other band members more than he. I was recently gifted around 200 lps. Among those was "Certified Live". This is a great lp and great sounding live lp.

I'll nominate "Sad and Deep As You" to this lit.
