Counting Down my iTunes Play Count (VANITY) -- Day #30

[Alberta's Child]

Day #30 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!

Pinging to those from the previous threads. One of the most underrated songs of all time, in my opinion. Bob Seger's one classic from the early 1990s. Unbelievable piano track on this.

"Then you walk to the window and stare at the moon ... riding high and lonesome through a starlit sky."

Let me know if you'd like to be added or removed from the ping list!

I’d also point out that this is the first time an artist/band has shown up on this list for a second time!

Hard to figure how you’re going to squeeze the 1,000 better songs into your last 20 slots.

[Alberta's Child]

No worries. I’m gonna let you do it. :-P

[freedomjusticeruleoflaw]

Ok. Start with Shangri La by ELO.
Then Dirty Work by Steely Dan
How about Thirteen by Big Star?
Or Wave by Beck?

Great artist, great song. I go nuts when “Hollywood Nights” comes on the radio when I’m driving. He is an American legend.

Hoping we’ll get to see Bob do the Star Spangled Banner at a Tigers World Series Game.

[leaning conservative]

That would be amazing!

[Alberta's Child]

You may think those are great songs, but that's not how this list was compiled. Read the original post on the thread!

I don't even have most of these on my iPod at all.
