Your 30 Favorite Songs. EVER.

[Karlie]

These are just my current favorites. They change every day.

I had a list of about 70 in the beginning and it was really hard to narrow it down to 30, so... I have six extras that I just couldn't bear to part with.

I didn't put any Stevie/Lindsey/Christine solo in because I wanted to make room for other artists.

In no particular order.

1. Little Lies - Fleetwood Mac
2. Harden My Heart - Quarterflash
3. City Lights - Husky Rescue
4. Love is a Battlefield - Pat Benatar

6. Shawn Colvin - Sunny Came Home
7. Spice Girls - Say You'll Be There

29. Donna Lewis - I Love You Always Forever
30. Martin L. Gore - I Cast A Lonesome Shadow

I could go on, but I'll save the others for some other time.

I really have only one eternal favorite song . "A Song for You " by Gram Parsons can never be topped.I love so many others It'd be too difficult to narrow it down to 30.

I actually have Martika's first album, it's some great late-80s dance pop. "Toy Soldiers" has always been one of my favorite songs though, even before I got into my 80s obsession in high school.
