okay well we all know that list could go on forever and ever, and i still never would pick a favorite song. but for the night bridge over troubled water is taking it home... it is the song that made me fall in love with music, real music, and with vinyl and it still gives me chills a little bit. if you ever want to know why i love all of these songs, i can let you know... there are good reasons for all. but just listen to they lyrics of 90% of these songs and you will know why i like them... okay, but for real, it's late, i am beat!
