Lifestops

) Definition:
My favorite song is on the radio and nobody better say anything, do anything--except perhaps to sing along.
These are songs that I have collected over the
years. From time to time I remember a song that was critical to
breathing. More songs will be added. In addition, many good songs
continue to be written.
My taste in music is very
eclectic. It spans three decades consisting of such genres as
country, pop, classic rock, contemporary rock and Christian.
It runs the gamut from Alabama, Amy Grant and Backstreet Boys to Roxette
and Bon Jovi.
As with any music the words by
themselves do not make the song. Often it is the music itself that
draws me into a particular song. Bruce Hornsby, for instance, has
an incredible piano sound. Bryan Adams improved upon a very
good song, Heaven, by redoing it unplugged. Celine Dion and Peter
Cetera have voices that are very distinct and could make just about any
song at hit. And some songs just have a very good message in them
and it does not matter who sings it. True Colors, which was
originally done by Cyndi Lauper, sounds just as good done by Phil
Collins.
At the same time there are those songs that are Lifestops for no
apparent reason other than they are just good songs.
