Day #25 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've been posting them here on a new thread that compiles the growing list one day at a time over the course of several months. I only post them on weekdays and may miss a day or two here and there, so this will probably be done by early November.
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 contributions for both the 3rd and 4th quarter fundraisers. I would encourage everyone on these threads to do the same! :-)
Have fun with this, folks!

Great playlist! I could listen to that.
Awesome. Thanks!
I heard this song yesterday again for the first time in 35 years and it is great, “Don’t Change” by INXS.
I will give a listen, but disregarding any politics, he was always a c list version of Springsteen.
I just watched the video & it was good. Loved seeing Mathew McC!
The first time I saw that video I had to look twice to make sure my eyes weren’t deceiving me!
My #29 song is by Al Stewart, his first big hit song from 1977 (released in 1976), "Year Of The Cat". It became popular as I was having my first crush on a girl from my biology class in high school. An unrequited crush at that but the first crush is always special nonetheless. So this song will alway remind me of...Teresa. I looked her up on the Internet a few years back and she is divorced. She should have gone with me but too late now, I'm already married and coming up on 40 years!
The saxophone break in this song is pretty incredible.
My list so far...
