well? just wondering

here are the rules:

-5 tracks, in no specific order
-no more than 2 tracks from any one artist
-this is taking into consideration everything you've heard
up to this point in time, so don't leave out songs you used
to love but have now lost track of...

i know this will be as tough for most of you as it was for
me

this thread has surely be done thousands of times... but I
like it and we need some of this nowadays

btw I copied the idea from: Capsaicin79
(loopz forum)

thanks

by the way, a top 5 is way to small for something like
this... you need at least top 10 or something...

actually, we should have lists where you just list EVERY
single song that comes to mind, that would qualify as your
favorites... cause, I have LOADS... and trying to fit them
into a top 5, or top 10 is just too hard... sometimes I
don't know if I like one song better then another...

tell me about it... i had to swallow my passion for music to
just pick 5, i could easily pick another 5 that i think are
even better than those i listed, and another 5 better than
that 5, etc.

i used to keep tabs on my top 50 favorite albums but i had
to stop in late 2001 cos i own so many albums that i've
listened to religiously at one point (or some points) in my
life; i own so many albums that i would give a full 10 out
of 10 and say it's some of the most brilliant music since
beethoven.
