But of course I don’t think one song on my Ipod has ever been a top 40 or anything really played on the radio try listening to NPR’s “all songs considered podcast” it’s a good way to get plugged into great new music

honorable mention to MTV - Dire Straits. ( and I really like a lot of Knopfler stuff, and thinkm he is a great talent.)

2nd honorable mention to any song that has any doo doo doo's, unh hunh's or bah ba ba ba bah crap in it like they can't think of any words.

Yah, you're correct - dunno where that came from, other than "Right Said Fred" is perhaps one of the stupidest band names ever. Alexei Sayle - I hope one day I see you in the gutter, beggin' for change, so I can rent a bus and run you over with it.

I know it was supposed to be comedic, but anyone amused by that song needs to be, in the infamous words of Bob Barker, spayed or neutered.

Big Yellow Taxi - that's in my '20 Stars' playlist.

Worst song is hard because I do my best to forget them.

Save A Horse, Ride A Cowboy. If there was ever a song that wrote country music's death certificate, that was it. Absolutely Awful.

Are you absolutely sure you didn't mean to put that one in the other thread? Wow. I love that song.

I gotta agree with Devil's Advocate. That's a great story song.

The music alone is phenomenal. One of my very favorite songs from childhood. The music catches the uniqueness of a ship wreck disaster and transfers it to you in emotion. Very tough thing for me to explain, but that's what it does to me. The music FEELS like a shipwreck.

I went out and bought the Best of CD for that song and Sundown and discovered that Gordie has so many other good songs. Kinda a hidden treasure as far as canadian artists go. Too bad they can't fill the canadian content quota with him instead of 54-40.

He's definately not played enough.

Well, Wreck of the Edmunds Fitzgerald is on "Gord's Gold, Volume II", which absolutely sucks other than 'Wreck'. On the other hand, "Gord's Gold, Volume I" is one of the best Canadian albums ever. Actually, my might be able to drop the "Canadian" off that last sentence.
