Cash - Hurt

What a song! 


And the 'just missed' is supposed to be one that's really crappy.

I don't really like Diamond Lights. 

[Nakor]

 
Please add my one that missed as anything by George Michael.

 

[jammer]

Cash - Hurt

What a song! 

You guys realise that Hurt by Johnny Cash  is a cover.

Oddly enought the original is actual by Nine Inch Nails.

[Nakor]

Oh Jammer I know.
Saw the Nails a few weeks ago, that Kurt is out there baby.
Cash's version just adds a little something.

Just sat down to play my first game since posting and somebody has a Bob Marley aviator.
I missed Bob off my list. . . . .Foregive me lord for I have sinned.

I can't argue with you. One of the last songs cash ever recorded, and drenched full of meaning after his wife's death. A flipping amazing version.

What a list! fine taste sir, fine taste

Thank you, was tempted to list all Oasis tracks but have broader tastes these days.  Champagne Supernova is my all time favourite song though.

a great song...but it doesn't mean anything. I mean, Its still good listening, but doesn't that make it hollow?. Under the bridge on the other hand...

[Chili]

How exciting, i love doing song lists!  It is VERY hard though to just pick 10.  They are ever changable also but here is my current top 10.
 
The Strokes  -  Reptillia
The Smiths -  Girl Afraid
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Sexy Mexican Maid
Sly & the Family Stone - Everybody is a Star
Radiohead - Street Spirit [Fade Out]
Nirvana - Rape Me
Funkadelic - One Nation Under a Groove
The Doors - People are Strange
Janes Addiction - 3 Days
Kings of Leon - Holy Roller Novocaine

On the bubble    LFC - Anfield Rap

[12barblues]

Resisting the temptation to list about a thousand, here's an almost random selection of faves in no particular order:

1.The Who - Won't Get Fooled Again
2. Van Morrison - TB Sheets
3.Michael Hedges - Aerial Boundaries
4. Eddie and the Hot Rods - Do Anything You Wanna Do
5.Duke Ellington - Caravan
6.Tom Waits - Tom Traubert's Blues (Three Sheets To The Wind In Copenhagen)
7.James Brown - Get Up, I Feel Like Being A Sex Machine
8.Bob Marley and The Wailers - Exodus
9.Marianne Faithful - The Ballad Of Lucy Jordan
10. Little Feat - Rock 'n Roll Doctor

Near misses (restricted to number one hits only):

Paul Macartney - Mull of Kintyre
Billy Ray Cyrus - Achy Breaky Heart
Grandma - St Winifred's.....no...no........can't go on.................it's too awful to contemplate...........

12barcoulddothiseverydayforamonthblues

P.S. Agree about 'Hurt'. With the accompanying video, it's gut-wrenchingly powerful stuff. Who would have thought Johnny Cash covering a Nine Inch Nails song would produce a masterpiece. Now there's an idea for another thread....cover versions (good and bad)......

[Ginger]

Hmmmmmm, I always find this question really hard to answer, especially as my taste varies so much. I'm bound to remember loads of top tracks later, but for now i'll have a quick stab at it.

In no particular order:

The Four Seasons...............Vivaldi
Days Go By........................Dirty Vegas
Iris.....................................Goo Goo Dolls
Don't want to miss a thing... Aerosmith ( yes i'm a soppy cow)
Everybody Hurts..................R.E.M
With Or Without You............U2
Hotel California....................Eagles
Alanis Morrisette.................You Oughta Know
Source...............................You Got The Love
Insomnia.............................Faithless


Oh damn, that's 10 already!!!! eeeeeerrrm, well others that would be/should be in there too:
Tomcraft.........Loneliness
Evanescence..My Immortal
Enigma.........Sadness
Oasis............Champgne Supernova
Seal.............Killer (ft.adamski)

Actually who am i kidding ,I could go on for ages. When we do a top 100 then I'll have another go lol.

[ifm]

Seal.............Killer (ft.adamski)

wasn't that Adamski (ft seal)?

[Nem]

Yeah, great song though.

[Ginger]

Hard to say really, it is Seal's song but you're correct (i'm pretty sure anyway) that when it first came out it was listed the other way around.
