Okay only 9! So, anyway, I thought about this perfect 15 business...I got to 9 songs, which I think are core to my musical life (i.e I always find myself listening to them again)...

1. Alice Cooper - Teenage Lament '74
2. Megadeth - Devil's Island
3. Philistines Jr - 145 Old Mill Road
4. Poison - Fallen Angel
5. The Carpenters - Can't Smile Without You
6. Lotion - Pajamas
7. Original Harmony Ridge Creek Dippers - I Give My Heart To You
8. Temple of the Dog - Hunger Strike
9. Dinosaur Jr - Freakscene

That's it...I guess they are pretty rock-centric.

How about a freakytrigger section on Perfect 15...you know with commentary?

"Hunger Strike"! Thats my friend Seanie's favorite song ever. "I dont mind stealing bread from the mouths of decadeeeeayyeence..."

yay philistines jr!

jel explain what is up with the number 15 thing! is this some sort of conspiracy?! why is everyone making lists of 15 songs all of a sudden?! is 10 too conventional? why not 11? i am confused!

because of me!!

I have not seen any votes for Taj Mahal - Chevrolet.

because they are afraid of the power and truth-giving energy of the number 14!!

5 (= the number of pure evil) x (3 = ethan is 12-ft lizard-lord #3 as revealed elsewhere) = 15!!

DO YOU SEE!!??

I want to play too. I'm having trouble discerning betw. fave songs and perfect songs. Heatmiser - Mock-Up
DJ Shadow - Mutual Slump
Nick Drake - River Man
Underworld - Pearls Girl
Sugarcubes - Birthday
Fairport Convention - A Sailor's Life
Taj Mahal - Chevrolet
John Coltrane - My Favorite Things
Sade - I Couldn't Love You More
Eric B/Rakim - Microphone Fiend
Seal - Violet
Cat Power - Colors and the Kids
Stereolab - Super-Electric
PJ Harvey - Rub 'Til It Bleeds
The Beatles - Blackbird

Admittedly some of those are because I wanted to pick something by a particular artist.

the carpenters do the barry banilow song? woah - now that is very cool.

Ah, you blew it at the end - not a think I liked until Freakscene.

Dan's is far more up my street - some really great stuff there: Coltrane, Shadow, Underworld.

hey, I'm not Dan! :-)
