today | Me

[Zeneta]

While I have a handful or more favorites, I am curious who my fellow freepers elevate to the top of their list?

My list starts with;

Annie Lennox

Kate Bush

Tracey Thorn (Everything but the Girl)

And oddly enough

Cindi Lauper

There's soo many more.

Dolly Parton is right up there.

And when I really needed to RELAX.....

I strongly recommend “Everything but the girl” when you want to relax.

Virtually any album, but you may want to start with this one.

Edith’s Je Ne Regrette Rien is an all time favorite. It really fit her life.

For my 16,000th post on FR, I couldn't find a song with 16,000 in the title, so I'll have to settle for 16.

Sixteen Reasons--Connie Stevens (1960)

Thank you. There is something indescribable in Piaf’s voice.
