RAP
Just a Friend--Biz Markee
This song reminds me of high school. Plus Biz is so off key I laugh every time
Top 40ish
If I had $1,000,000--Barenaked Ladies
Another happy, funny song
Soul
A Change is Gonna Come--Sam Cooke
I fell in love with this song when I was watching ALI.
Classic Rock
Paint It, Black--Rolling Stones
I have loved this song since I heard it as an intro to a TV show about Vietnam.
Blues (kind of)
When Love Comes to Town--BB King and U2
One of my fave songs. Play this when I need to focus and clear my mind.
Drinking Songs (Country)
Its Five O'Clock Somewhere--Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffett
Its Hard to Be Humble--Mac Davis
Alcohol--Brad Paisley
All of these are fun, upbeat, playful country songs. The first two are a few years old, while the last one is new. The Mac Davis song brings back memories of hanging out at the pizza parlor as a young kid after Mom's softball games. When they would sing that song most of the time they got together after a game, especially when they won.
Fighting Songs (Alternative)
Alive--Pearl Jam
Rooster--Alice in Chains

Ok, so I am remiss on doing any real original posts leading up to this holiday season. With a job change and a new baby on the way, as well ...

I LOVE that Mac Davis song. I used to always try and get someone to sing it karaoke, but none of em knew it! WHAT? It's WAY too low for me to sing...but it's a keeper!
I just got a bit of extra cash today, and guess where I'm going!? Itunes!
I don't think I'll have a problem spending my itunes gift certificate ;) Thanks for posting this - great timing!
OK, Biz Markee? Hilarious! OH BABY YOUUUUU!
I just hear the BL version of $million last night. I do believe that Simon and Garfunkle did it first, back in the day. It's a keeper though and appropriately timed with the bazillion dollar lottery out there.
Now, Mac Davis is more than a few years old. I LOVE THIS SONG! Ah, country. It's where it's at! And you can never go wrong with, as Ruby would say, Brady-Brad-Brad.
OK, so maybe S&G didn't do the BL song, but I swear that they did, just can't find it anywhere. hmmmm, maybe it's the voices in my head again?
my favorite line of the biz song is, "So I took Blah-Blah's word for it at the time. I thought that just havin' a friend couldn't be no crime- cuz I have friends and that's a fact, like Agnes, Agatha, Jermaine and Jack!"
Yes..I know the whole song..as well as Ice Ice Baby, Too Legit to Quit, Baby got Back, and Shoop! I love early rap. It's too funny!
Say "Go white girl! Go white girl! GO!"
You are a freak and we are no longer related.
i have a self made cd that has
Ice Ice Baby
Bust a Move
Baby Got Back
Cant Touch This
as well as
2Pac
Notorious BIG
Coolio (1234)
Tone Loc

Another stellar one I recently found again and you should definitely add to your collection..
Young MC's- Principal's Office.
Technically, if we're gonna be all sentimental about cheesy old rap...you can't go wrong with Will Smith's-Paren'ts just don't understand!
oh yes..and Baby got back was a college friend (also names Sarah) and I's theme song one summer.
