What’s Your List?
Back in March 2005, Esquire Magazine ran a column written by John Mayer discussing the top songs he remembers from growing up. It started a string of emails, first from my oldest brother and then throughout the family, discussing what songs were important to us. Growing up in a music hip household, you get exposed to various genres and types of music. There are songs that maybe your favorite, but then there are those that just hold a special place for one reason or another.
As you grow up, your taste in music expands and refines. Some believe that to listen to mainstream “pop” music is to dance with the devil. To some, finding out the next “it” band first is more important than actually enjoying the music. To me, music is all about emotion. It is there to help you at all times, with joy and pain and everything in between. So what’s your memorable songs? Remember, these may not your favorite ten of all time, but those songs, that when you hear them on the radio, illicit the most emotional reaction!
