Day #5 of the Top 50 songs on my iTunes playlist -- ranked in reverse order by play frequency from #50 to #1 and presented here on a series of FR threads. I'm posting them here on a new thread that compiles the growing list one day at a time over the next couple of months. I only post them on weekdays and may miss a day or two here and there, so it will take at least ten weeks to do this.
And to show my gratitude to the FR management for giving us all a forum to post vanity threads like this, I'll be making a contribution for the current quarterly fundraiser. I would encourage everyone on these threads to do the same! :-)
Have fun with this, folks!
(One thing I noticed last week is that there was a tie at the end of the list for #50, so there will actually be 51 songs on 51 threads here.)
Never been much of a Tim McGraw fan, but this one is very well done.
#50T -- "Solsbury Hill" by Peter Gabriel
#50T -- "Fly Over States" by Jason Aldean
#49 -- "Sara" by Fleetwood Mac
#48 -- Bagpipe Medley by the Simon Fraser University Pipe Band (2009 World Pipe Band Championships)
#47 -- "How I'll Always Be" by Tim McGraw
Pinging to those from the previous threads. Let me know if you’d like me to drop you from the ping list!
Would you put me on the ping list please.
Sure thing! :-)
Your list is as eclectic as mine.
Tim McGraw is one of my favorite country artists and I actually have a country song as my #47 which I'll talk about down below.
Some of my favorite McGraw songs are "Live Like You Were Dying", "Where The Green Grass Grows", and "Humble And Kind", as well as a score of others. I had not heard "How I'll Always Be" in a while so thanks for reminding me of that one.
My #47 is a song that came out just a couple years ago from perhaps my favorite new artist of recent years, Zach Bryan.
Zach Bryan - Oklahoma Smokeshow (2022)
This song to me is about a man who loves a girl who will never escape the rough small town she was raised in. He wants to take her out of that town but she is trapped there, having fallen in with the "bad boys", who dashed her dreams of ever finding a better life with this one man. She is now trapped in this town for good and the man is forced to realize she has made her choice and is doomed to her fate and her "puddle of tears."
I've been playing this song extensively since it came out and thus it is already in my Top 50 despite being only a couple years old.
Here is a running tally of my iTunes countdown so far.
You're already on the ping list. See Post #3 above.
You've got a great list going, too!
