Lose yourself. Eminen is the only rap I can listen to. I can't say I like all of his but he has a rhythm that works for me.

Dave Grohl is high on my list of worthwhile musicians, the Foo Fighters get the deciding vote. It's a great track.

I know 'The Strawbs' but the Rasberrys frontman looks like Paul McCartney, you sure its not him?

I think it has to be The Stones for this one.

Wow...two very different interpretations of the same theme. Roberta Flack has a beautiful voice, but I vote for "Where Did Our Love Go?". Yearning, but hopeful.

Susie Q, even though it seems my vote has been rendered irrelevant.

Besides my coin toss on the last one went with War, making it 4-4.

Not sure what happened to my post.
