MY ALL TIME FAVORITE SONGS ...REVISED with TWO MORE!!!

As most of you have already noticed, I love music.   All kinds but mostly my heart falls in pure ROCK AND FUCKING ROLL.  Mostly classics from 70s and 80s but over the years I have run across a few songs that I cannot stop listening to....THEY NEVER GET OLD.  I am writing this as there is a song by the Bee Gees my dad used to love and I can listen to it 5 times in a row and it never gets old....to this day.  With that said here is a list of some of the songs I listen to and for some reason they just never tire me out. You will also notice its NOT songs from my all time favorite bands as I like almost everything by my favorites so picking one is ridiculous.   These are also songs that the FIRST time I heard them I was hooked and never looked back.   These select songs are perfect at painting a picture and not many songs can do that.  The CLASSICS always do......ENJOY playing in my mind for a while.

FIRST is my ALL TIME FAVORITE....I decided this was it as I was driving with my son the other day and it came on and I was like "This is it" spanning my entire music library in my head this is the one song I can always go to if I need to sing loud or smile or whatever.  Its  absolutely perfect.  And because the ORIGINAL is the ORIGINAL its the post....every version of this song is amazing.

The Police "Message In A Bottle" (from the album Reggatta De Blanc - 1979)

The next song is arguably my SECOND favorite song of all time as we were driving through San Diego the first time I heard it and was floored.  STILL today!!!!!!

Foo Fighters "The Pretender" (from the album Echoes Silence Patience Grace - 2007)
