This is the most listened to stuff on my i-river, a mix of old faves & current ones - so here is my top *counts* 12 also I Remember You - Steve Earle with Emmylou Harris Don't Talk to Me About Love - Altered Images Baby Did a Bad Bad Thing - Chris Isaak Red Morning Light - Kings of Leon Alive & Amplified - Mooney Suzuki Panic in Detroit - David Bowie Dude Looks like a Lady - Aerosmith Lido Shuffle - Boz Skaggs Someday We'll be Together - Diana Ross - this is the point where I start singing along :-( Revolution (Lies) - Arcade Fire Trouble Over Me - Tift Merritt - another sing-along, I'm afraid If You See Her,Say Hello - Bob Dylan - I've tried to get into Dylan several times, & again with the recent programmes on him, but I'm not really getting it - except for this song, which I love, & strangely I discovered through Ricky Gervais's Xfm show. I suspect 3 of my selection do occasionally turn up on Radio 1 - I don't listen to it to know, but I'm not holding it against them. Not without proof.

It's as if his bursting upon the scene changed music forever, not to be sniffed at.Interesting list by the way.
