If your ipod could only hold 5 SONGS...

[incredibleev]

what would they be

Bob Marley - Is This Love
Sam Cooke - A Change is Gonna Come
The Strokes - Someday
The Beatles - Hey Jude
The Ronettes - Be My Baby

i could not justify putting a rap song on this list. these are 5 songs i can listen to over and over in any order no problem. Songs just missing the listinclude P.Y.T. - Michael Jackson, Bridge Over Troubled Water - Simon & Garfunkel, Let's Stay Together - Al Green, and various Beatles, Beach Boys, OtisRedding, and Stevie Wonder songs

 

[nikfiend]

Yeah man that's just too hard to do. lol

 

[mathilda lando]

I'd be %@$%!#.

 

[dano4o8]

I'll go back to my sony walkman.

 

[mathilda lando]

Nobody answering the actual question, let me try this...

1. OutKast - Aquemini
2. NaS - No Ideas Original
3. NaS - Black Zombies
4. GangStarr - Speak Ya Clout
5. Jay - Can I Live

Ask me in 5 minutes it'll change completely.

 

[incredibleev]

the thing is theres too many people who claim to be music heads, but they can't even name 5 songs that they love more than others. Or just 5 songs that youcan listen to more times than any others, doesn't even have to be absolute favorites.

you know its ok to like songs more than other songs right? stop frontin acting like omg i cant pick 5 songs, theres just so many songs out there! please...

if you ask your favorite musician or artist, they will tell you 5 songs that are probably their favorites easily

no doubt then, but i still believe if you really truly know what music you like and you are a smart music fan you should be able to single out 5 songs that youfeel you can listen to over and over, for whatever reason.

It's still a weak argument.

As for me, I'd just put Miles Davis - Kind of Blue or either of Voxtrot's first two EPs on there.

Or maybe, it's too hard to single out 10,000 other songs and not be able to listen to them while you're moving ever again.
