Favourite Songs
« on: March 28, 2006, 07:31:39 PM »
Yup, it's a slight knockoff of the albums topic in Amy's subforum...Rosi sent me an extensive list of every single one of her favourite songs the other week, and I sent one back - and I really think it's interesting to see the songs that have made an effect on people, or amuse them, or get them through hard times, or whatever.

So! I hereby invite you to post here a list of as many songs as you want that mean something to you, for any of the reasons I just posted or any other. You can post two or two hundred, anything goes! And then we could comment on each other's choices if we agree with some of them or not, and hopefully discover some new music into the bargain. I love sharing music with other people, so if you fancy looking up some new music one day all you'd have to do is scroll down somebody's list and find something that sounds interesting. So anyhoo, without further ado:

Black Sabbath - War Pigs

Who said that there's no hope for today's youth? I heard War Pigs on the radio at work today, so great tunes never die. ^_^

Oh my goodness! What would we do without our friends?
