My favourite song?

Aww... "Ave Maria". How can you improve on that...... no matter who sings it? And then there's Amazing Grace, and what about Hallelujah? I do so like K.D. Lang's version. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPJkiB2o0sw

I'm not really into classical music, but Strauss gets me tapping my feet, and there are a few pieces by others I quite like.

And then there's my dad's music! My dad played the piano accordian. He could play it standing up, sound asleep!! Snoring even! :D Whenever I hear something he played over and over, the memories come flooding back and so do the tears. "A white sports coat and a pink carnation" is the one that comes most quickly to mind. There were many others, but this favourite of his has a special place in my heart.

And like others, I named my daughter after a song. One evening I heard Don William's singing "Amanda", and that was that...... such a pretty song with such lovely words:

Then there was the keyboard piece my DD played in the Yamaha music festival when she was 11 years old. She won the 2nd place medal, after only 3 weeks of lessons...... that was special.

Oh... and I just remembered Danny Boy.... hauntingly beautiful.

I really like Irish ballards and especially the one that was played at my wedding..... "Forever and Ever" by Foster and Allen.

Before we were married we had a favourite restaurant where we'd often go to dinner. There was a band there so we'd dance after we'd eaten, and they played this song beautifully. Needless to say that one is very special to us. I'd have shared it with you, but couldn't find a copy on the Net.

I could go on, and on, but this is just about one favourite song :D

I haven't heard my favorite song yet. Still waiting for someone to show up at my door and sing, "You've Won the PCH $1,000,000 Prize!" :D

Guess I won't ever hear that, as I haven't entered in years, lol!

Other than that...

I was in a songwriting class once, and we had to choose our three fave songs. Mine were: "Something" by the Beatles, "The Music of the Night" from Phantom, and Willie Nelson's "You Were Always on My Mind."

I know I really love something when my knees tingle. Placido Domingo makes my knees tingle!!!

Oh great, now I have to get out my Willie Nelson CD's...

Favorite childhood nostalgic western song: "Happy Trails" by Roy Rogers and Dale Evans

I love the shrek version of hallelujah.

Unchained Melody..Rightous Brothers (sp) , Wonderful World..Louis Armstrong, I will always love you..Whitney Houston..tons more but my brain hurts. :-)

I love "Unchained Melody". What a classic love song!!

Favorite song to bop around the house doing housework to: "Rockin' Pneumonia and the Boogie Woogie Flu" by Johnny Rivers.

Favorite song?.... There are sooooo many! I will say Angel Eyes by Jeff Healy will always be one of my time favs because it reminds me of a dear friend who passed away when we were teenagers.

Blackbird will be my favorite McCartney song because it will always remind me of DD when she was a toddler (it was one of her faves).

And Patsy Cline will always remind me of my grandmother.

Way too many to list, anything from Mozart to Metallica! Exculsions to rap and hip-hop, urban noise I can do without.

Aww Legzz.....my DDH used to sing this to me a long, l-o-n-g time ago. He had a really good voice. Whenever it would play on the radio he'd always sing to me. I miss that.
