Top 10 ... ??

Andrew and i were watching PartyMax on cable on Friday. It was so much fun, all of these songs that i hadn't heard for years, and the film clips, the whole things got me thinking about how some music stays with you for your whole life. When i was young, probably about 10 Simon and Garfunkel's Cecilia was my favorite song, as i went through my music yesterday i realised it was still up there along with a lot of songs from those angst fill teenage years i have been talking about :)
I thought i would put together a list of my top 10 all time favorite songs as it stood today, it was an absolute disaster i couldn't get it down below 38, i think the issue is that i like most types of music so i have Porno for Pyros next to Harry Belafonte and Cat Stevens next to Nirvana
Do i want to dance? sing? feel mellow? each one of the 38 makes me feel something?

So i cant do my top 10, its impossible, i cant even pick out the highlights to show you, if there were highlights then there would be some that i liked better than the other ..... you see my dilemma.

So I'm sorry it could well be the longest post in history, but i am going to list the top 38 songs of my life so far ...... mind you there could well be some missing so if you think that there is a song that should be on there let me know maybe i just skipped past it or maybe i didn't have it in iTunes.

I learnt a lot finding the links to these clips, did you know people make there own clips for songs that the Artist didn't release a clip for? a good example is Mad World by Donni Darko someone has pieces together some Final Fantasy clips, there was also the one i came across for ruler of my heart of a woman who had just put lots of pictures of herself together, each to his own.
