My tastes are rather odd. Here are some of my favorites:
1. Rebecca St. James, "Wait For Me: The Best From Rebecca St. James." Though, I also liked her album "God." She's a great Christian artist.
2. The soundtrack for the movie "Shrek." The "Shrek 2" sountrack was pretty good too, but I definitely liked the first one better. Even though I normally hate the Baha Men, I often sing along to their song on it, "Best Years of Our Lives." In addition, Dana Glover's "It is You (I Have Loved)" is easily the most beautiful love song I've ever heard, I'll have it played at my wedding some day.
3. Bill Cosby, "Himself." This was back when he was in his prime, and even though it was made about 25 years ago, most of the jokes are still relevant today, and still hilarious.
4. Adam Sandler, "What the Hell Happened to Me?" Incredibly funny album. It has the first version of his "Chanukah Song,", and most of the other tracks are pretty funny too, especially "Respect."

Best years of our lives? The soundtrack?
I'd be interested in hearing that song.
I'm a sucker for a love song anytime.

;-)

The soundtrack for the movie "Shrek."
"Hallelujah" by John Cale is also a beautiful song. Too bad the soundtrack CD used a version by Rufus Wainwright instead, which is okay but not as good.

"They're All Gonna Laugh at You" was first, and superior to his sophomore effort. How can you forget "Lunch Lady Land" and "Toolbooth Willie"?

My personal favorite.....

The soundtrack for Star Wars IV: ANH. The music of John Williams is inspiring, and the first few notes of the theme song are memorable.

Heck, my husband wanted to use the first song off of the soundtrack for our wedding march. As much as I thought about it, I refused.
