this is the hardest question EVER. ....Give me two days to think

[GateandGarden]

I have a tendency to change my mind, particularly because my musical tastes have altered dramatically since the hell that was high school (which was a mere four years ago ), but here goes...(and I do include folk songs)

Beatles- "There's a Place"
Fleetwood Mac- "Sara"
Ani DiFranco- "She Says"
Donna Lewis "Falling"
REM- "Nightswimming"
Toad the Wet Sprocket- "All I Want"
Celine Dion- "Les Derniers Seront Les Premiers"
Kim Richey- "That's Exactly What I Mean"
Sting- "Mad About You"
Carly Simon- "Anticipation"

...And that is by no means my final answer
