Old favorites that you still play and still "feel".


As lovers of music, we sometimes re-visit favorites that still can both please and amaze.  

Jennifer Warnes,  the entire "Famous Blue Raincoat" cd/album/download/video.....

I would appreciate any music that you can share that has, as they say (and who are "they" anyway?), stood the test of time.  There are obvious ones from some masters...but also some that are a little less obvious.

Yes, Jennifer Warnes 'Famous Blue Raincoat' is a definite favorite of mine.

Cassandra Wilson, 'Blue Light Til Dawn', just got LP version as bday prize, CD hardly ever cools off.
I started a somewhat related thread; What makes us chose a certain song as a favorite?

The song has that je ne sais quoi, if the song begins and I immediately get the feeling, "Oh yeah... that's the stuff" Then it's a favorite.

Here are some of mine;
Thunder Island   Jay Ferguson
I come alive     Jay Ferguson
Crackerbox palace    George Harrison
Stairway to Heaven   Led Zeppelin
Dream Weaver         Gary Wright
Hotel California    The Eagles

R & B
You make me wanna... Usher
Unbreak my heart   Toni Braxton
Ain't nobody         Chaka Khan
Try sleeping with a broken heart   Alicia Keys

Pop
A sorta fairytale   Tori Amos
Tonight           Nina Gordon
Lady           Modjo
Building a mystery       Sarah McLachlan
Stupid           Sarah McLachlan
Grandtheft    Easy Go

Country
Kiss me in the dark   Randy Rogers Band
Alabama     Cross Canadian Ragweed
Scream       Mindy McCready

Just a short list.
