OK, I gotta start out by saying that I am impressed with the lists provided by my colleagues. InTheKnow really struck a chord with Midnight Train to Georgia. All I ever wanted to be when I grew up was a Pip. LBJ thank you for your offer of further explanation.....but I think I got it. Beaker for Wild Thing, I award you no points and may God have mercy on your soul. My list (in no particular order)


What Am I To You- Norah Jones- Because there is no way I can leave this one off my list

These Arms of Mine- Otis Redding- I'm a little surprised that the Georgia Underwear Remover didn't
appear on either of your lists

Dreams To Remember - Otis Redding- the man's career lasted less than a decade and he has two
songs that easily make my top ten and I've Been Loving You Too
Long gets a high honorable mention. As a side note, if you can get
your hands on Warren Haynes covering this Live at Bonaroo it's
worth the trouble and will come in handy if you need to close the
deal with...... a biker chick

When A Man Loves A Woman- Percy Sledge- Simply because it has to make somebody's list and it may
as well be mine

Rainy Night In Georgia- Ray Charles- I prefer the Ray Charles cover to the original Brook Benton
because....well because it's Ray

Bring It On Home To Me- Sam Cooke- because the great sam cooke should be on this list somewhere

Let's Get It On -Marvin Gaye- A great song and an all time classic that was almost ruined for me by the
fact that it is Wally's ringtone and a Reese's Egg commercial

Shake you Down- Gregory Abbott- just because of that time in high school when....anyway Shake You
Down Gregory Abbott.

At Last- Etta James- Jamesetta Hawkins can bring it

My Last selection is Pretty Much Anything by Bill Withers- Aint No Sunshine, Just the Two of Us, Hello
Like Before, Soul Shadows, I Want to Spend
the Night ....they could all make the cut
