Randy, a great taste in music.

Ha, thanks Doug. I listen to pretty much everything, so long as it's not Rap or Techno wierd stuff. When I was in university I studied listening to the likes of Vivaldi and Bach, but I tend to crank the Johnny/classic country (much to the dismay of everyone esle in the shop) when I'm tattooing or drawing for tattoos. My Ipod is currently 401 songs ranging in artists from Johnny, Patsy, Merle, George etc all the way through to Kiss, Rise Against, DOA etc. Quite a variety!

Ok; How about;

Unchained Melody-Rightous Brothers
At Last - Etta James
Words get in the way-Gloria Estefan
In Dreams - Roy Orbison
Never tear us apart - INXS
Wicked Game - ChriS Isaak
2 steps behind - Def Leppard
Beth -Kiss
Only You- The Platters
Oh Pretty Lady - Trooper

[Rbacchiega]

oooh Roy Orbison...I forgot about him. Such a sad song In Dreams...it was written after his first wife was killed in an accident and he wrote it for her (same with Claudette when she was alive actually)

[dsaundry]

Forgot to mention, If I am in a bad mood I like

Love Stinks - J-Geil
3 dressed up as a 9 - Trooper
Girls, Girls Girls - Motley Crew
Tainted Love - Soft Cell or Marilyn Manson
Too Late for Love- Def Leppard

[lastlight]

Damn good call on 'In Dreams'. That entire album is GOLD.

[dsaundry]

Yup I love Roy Orbison but when I got married I had to use Etta James, At Last.
Of course I have heard it in a few commercials since but she is a fantastic lady, Cant wait to see how Beyonce does her in the movie thats coming out about her life.....

[Delphinus]

lastlight, the more I learn about you the more I'm convinced you and I might be the same person. Live in Evergreen, cats, reef tanks, The Cure ... and so far I've never seen the two of us in the same room at the same time. Hmmmmmm. Conspiracy!

Uh, little late I'm too tired to list out ten specifically, but the first few that do come to mind (some listed already by others with some rather good taste I must say!) are:

Just Like Heaven - The Cure
Love Will Tear Us Apart - Joy Division
Bizarre Love Triange - New Order
Being Boring - Pet Shop Boys
A Little Respect - Erasure
Love Song - Simple Minds
If You Leave - Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark

... Yeah Ok you can see I'm a product of 80's decade music. BEST. DECADE. FOR MUSIC. EVER. There - I said it. It's out. Deal with it!
