I've grown to appreciate Jimmy Buffett as I age. Must admit I did not like him when I was a teenager, when he was breaking out with his "Cheeseburger in Paradise", "Fins", and all that.

Like Steely Dan, Bruce Hornsby, and Bob Dylan, Buffet is an artist that ages well as you grow older.

My #11 song is "Live Like You Were Dying" by Tim McGraw.

This song really hits you, it is all about living life to the fullest as you never know when you are going to die. When this song came out, I had just lost over 100 pounds and began living a much healthier lifestyle. This song motivated me to start doing things I never did before such as riding ferris wheels, hiking in the deep woods, and going fishing. There's not many life-changing songs that I've heard but this is one of them.

Tim McGraw - Live Like You Were Dying (2004)

Below is my countdown so far.
