If you have no idea what this is then you should visit Alex J. Cavanaugh who is the host of this here blogfest.
I shouldn't of waited until the last second to come up with this list. I think I had more than a month to think about it. The due date came up so fast. One day I will learn not to wait until the last minute but I doubt it. I think it may be instinctual. This is a much harder list to come up with than favorite movies or actors. There are so many damn good tunes out there. So in no particular order, I will give it a go.
Song - Artist
Tiny Dancer - Elton John (Probably my all time favorite song)
Summer of '69 - Bryan Adams
Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) - Green Day
Wonderwall - Oasis
Machinehead - Bush
Fortunate Son - Creedance Clearwater Revival
Keep on Loving You - REO Speedwagon
Shackled - Vertical Horizon
Kryptonite - 3 Doors Down
Ramble On - Led Zeppelin
I would highly recommend looking up any songs on here you don't know and giving it a listen. Okay I could probably redo this list like 20 times and still not be happy with what I put. This is my first draft and I am keeping it this way otherwise I will never be happy with it. I would put most of Green Day songs up there because they are my all time favorite band but I can't play favorites. Dammit!! I have so many alternates to put. Why can't this be a top 50 blogfest. Arrggghhh!!

Wonderwall is a classic! Great choices.
My Top Ten Songs
I love Wonderwall! Oasis is great.
Woot! I actually know most of the choices...I feel special.
Great list! It was so hard chopping it down. Still, you've picked som good ones.
I never heard any of these on the Lawrence Welk show. Weird....
My favorite has to be Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd. Good to see you have some Zepplin on here.
CCR, classic! I had Kryptonite as well :) Nice tunes!
Jules @ Trying To Get Over The Rainbow
I love me some CCR.
Great list!!! I have bush on my list too...but Glycerine!! Love Machinehead though!!! We almost got our dance teacher to agree to use it for our routine this year...we actually started a routine to it, but then she changed her mind...I can't even tell you what she picked instead!!
I have every song on your list. How could I forget to list Bush?
Kryptonite! There is a song to bond us forever. I had almost forgotten about it but i love it--not sure it has the same connotations for you it does me... I have a whole playlist that spurs my little 'loving an addict' violins, but I love the songs on it.
Nice list. I know most.
great list, no need to go look anything up.
Love me some Bryan Adams! (REO Speedwagon, too....but normally you wouldn't catch me admitting it.)
I love so many on your list--Tiny Dancer, Kryptonie, Wonderall...lots of good ones here!
oooh! great list!!! love oasis and green day!
Oh man! I love Machinehead!! Great list!
With the exception of Shackled (which I don't think I've ever heard - but will look up), I love every one of these songs!
Second time I'm seeing Kryptonite - love that song! You have a great list here!!
I love Green Day and Oasis - it was hard not being able to squeeze in one of their tracks.
Nice list. Green Day is also on my list. Nice pick on Oasis. :)
Yeah, I could think up favorite songs all day. You came up with a bunch of winners here. "Tiny Dancer" is an especially fine song.

Make sure you check my Wednesday post!
Tossing It Out
Wonderwall just missed my list my a hair
Great list!
Keep On Loving You was my favorite song in grade school!
Also Machinehead is awesome. I like Bush and Gavin Rossdale's solo stuff.
Great list! I love that CCR and Oasis make the same list. And Summer of '69 is great. Nice choices. Really wish I had thought to put some CCR on my own list...
You've got great taste. This is the third or fourth time I've seen Summer of '69 pop up and I am kicking myself for not putting it on my list, too!
I've only recently rediscovered "Machinehead", damn is that ever an awesome song! Also love "Shackled" by VH (a recent first-time discovery for me :D) and re-discovered "Kryptonite" (which somebody else in this blogfest reminded me of, actually 2 other people I think :D).
Nice list! :)
Every song you listed is amazing! Love me some Vertical Horizon...
i will take that kidney...
:)

Woo hoo, Oasis, CCR, Zeppelin, Bryan Adams - and Tiny Dancer! I like your list [s]
Hello, Powdered Toast Man. Very interesting title. I didn't quite finish going through the list, so I'm trying to visit everyone today. I only removed Tiny Dancer from my list at the last minute. I agonized over "Philadelphia Freedom", "Somebody Save My Life Tonight" and "Tiny Dancer".
Love the Bryan Adams, Speedwagon, and, of course, The Mighty Zeppelin. Great list!
