1. I'm Glad You're Mine Al Green so good
2. Man In The Mirror Michael Jackson i've been attached to this song for a really long time
3. Oh You Pretty Things David Bowie
4. Paper Bag Fiona Apple
5. Nightswimming R.E.M.

It was really difficult to bump Bonnie Tyler, but I think Total Eclipse of the Heart is in a league of it's own

1. Tired Of Sex Weezer by far my most listened to on itunes, so it has to get on this list regardless.
2. One With The Freaks The Notwist hell yeah
3. There There Radiohead /Gagging Order/2+2=5/Paranoid Android/Worrywort/Lift/Cuttooth/Subteranean/Let Down/How to Disappear Completely/many others.
4. Cortez The Killer Neil Young Zuma
5. 7 Chinese Brothers R.E.M.

can you think of a harder list to make? This was basically just based on my most played in itunes, because that's the only decent standard I could go by for this.

1. Beyond The Sea Any I've never heard a version I don't like. (The French lyrics are great!)
2. Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps Any Again, they're all good. (Love the Spanish lyrics.)
3. Drift Away Dobie Gray (Especially as sung by Ed Helms.)
4. Gone Fishin' Bing Crosby And Louis Armstrong You claimed that hoein' ain't no fun. (But I can prove it.)
5. Oh, What Do You Do In The Summertime? InsideOut A Cappella Oh, what do you do in the summertime, when all the world is green?

Favorite songs of the moment: Oblivious (Fisher), The End of the Beginning (David Phelps), The Girl All the Bad Guys Want (Bowling for Soup), Selfish Jean (Travis). This is totally because of videos I have seen featuring these songs.

  Song Artist notes
1. Happiness Is A Warm Gun The Beatles
2. Shine On You Crazy Diamond (parts I-V) Pink Floyd
3. Sugar Mountain Neil Young he wrote this on his 20th birthday. now you go and tell me that that isn't amazing.
4. Girl From North Country Bob Dylan this is very similar to boots of spanish leather, which is the only reason that song isn't also on this list
5. It Ain't Me Babe Bob Dylan it ain't me you're looking for babe

this is probably the most difficult, inaccurate, shortest-lived top five list one could possibly make. however, these songs, unlike will's criterium, are the ones that have remained high enough on my list for my lifetime to make this list. i initially started doing this using playcounts as a guide, but the highest songs on that have only been that high since i reset my playcounts last august. these songs, especially the first, are truly amazing. and the fact that dylan wrote girl from north country and neil young wrote sugar mountain when they were each under 25 sure makes me feel bad about my accomplishments as a 21 year old
