I have two...
Airplane by BOB and Hayley Williams (from Paramore)
aaaannnnnnnddddddddddddd
Halo by Beyonce
Kind of funny, cos I'm not usually a Beyonce fan, but I totally love that song!!
ETA: They're my current favourites....my favourite all time songs are Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon and Garfunkel and ..... I'm having a blonde moment, but it makes me cry every time I hear/sing it.....okay, remembered!! In the Arms of An Angel by Sarah McLachlan

Those three are my all time faves...also Silver springs by fleetwood mac, that gets me howling like a baby whenever I hear it.
And so does your fave, Kate, it reminds me of my Dad, he loved simon and garfunkel.

Hallelujah - Gin Wigmore
Green Eyes - Coldplay
Calling You - Blue October
Hey - Pixies
Almost anything by Kimya Dawson
Almost anything by The Killers
Almost anything by Bon Jovi

I also LOVE Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell Ain't no mountain high enough - their version is the best imo.
I like most NZ music (dp calls it stoner music ) but The blackseeds, Che Fu, Fat Freddies... Anything by them
A song from now I like is that one "You beat my drum hard"

Mad World is pretty awesome...after I posted in this thread last night I went to YouTube and searched for a whole lot of songs. I love Nathan Brake's version of Mad World, from Aussie Idol. Also Hallelujah....like the one Stan Walker sang.
Also a massive fan of Paramore!!!

Kate, I haven't heard that BOB/Hayley Williams song..will have to You Tube it.
I love I dreamed a dream that is on the Glee #3 soundtrack, song by Lea Michele and Idina Menzel.. so beautiful and I had tears the first time I heard it. I also love their version of Poker Face.. and I don't even like Lady Gaga.

Kickstart my heart is awesome FTR, especially if you know the story behind it. It was the first song they recorded when they all went sober after Nikki Sixx died...twice. Or something along those lines. Need to buy another copy of The Dirt. The copy I had is MIA.

I LOVE P!nk, Lady Gaga & Paramore - my three all time fave artists/groups.
I'm actually loving most of the music out atm on the charts, I have been out of the loop for AGES but recently started making the effort to watch C4 and have the radio on.
Loving Katy Perry- California Girls (really like the video to go with it)
BOB-Planes
Bruno Mars/Travis McCoy - Billionaire
Gaga- Alejandro (naturally lol...)
Muse- Neutron Star Collision
and OMG the new Adam Lambert song is addictive - If I had you! I hated his first song ...but the 2nd was ok, and now I love his music.
Same with Muse, never liked them until recently, now I'm holding out for them to announce a concert here soon since they're touring Aussie later this year.
So, who out of all you Paramore fans are going to see them Live when they come back later this year? I had a ticket to their concert in march but wasn't able to make it due to circumstances at the time- i was so so gutted! I'd been hanging out for it, for AGES! Will def be going this time around, no questions.
Oh and I quite like that Rihanna - Te Amo (sp?) song.
Oldies but goodies would be : Exponents: Why does Love do this to me?
Anything crowded house.
Anything Alanis
Madonna, Mariah ...Michael Jackson etc etc. I'm a real 80's -early 90's girl.
Right, bed time for me. Good topic to start :)
Ps. Mel, love how you pointed out that you dislike Gaga lol
