I'm in the mood for an obscure track from Caribou.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

Rickie, don't lose that number. Great tune to start my day with. Melody sounds just right.

Yeah, actually I think this is a pretty smokin' track; really builds up a head of steam.
Don't stand in the way of LOVE!

Too long a list. Which is why it's easier to single out the handful of songs that annoy me, like "Motherless Children". :wink:

But BOS Eagles-do-Tom Waits, "Ol' 55".  One of their loveliest.

Not that anyone asked, but "Ol' 55" iss easily my favorite Eagles track.

As for Clapton, my list goes:
1. Layla
2. Why Does Love Got to Be So Sad
3. Forever Man
4. Let It Flow (title?)
5. Bell Bottom Blues

interestingly, "Forever Man" is one of the annoying ones for me. that "revo-man, revo-man, revo-man" refrain just grates.

You must LOVE that it was (recently?) interpolated into some club-remix monstrosity, then!  (I'm just in it for that aluminum guitar riff thartt opens the track.)
