Toaster's Territory
Beth's Favorite Songs

Here's my favorite songs list. I'm a dedicated car radio station surfer--I'm always looking for something better that's on--but these are songs that donŐt get preempted by any others, songs that you'll usually find my singing along to (although many of them don't get much radio play!). Some of the songs I consider to be great music, but others are just songs that happen to be significant to me, often because they're associated with a specific time in my life. However, they're all songs that I still enjoy hearing today.

The songs below are in no particular order, with the exception that I tried to list them ROUGHLY from older songs to more recent. Oh, one more thing--you won't see any songs here that appear on the favorite albums I mentioned previously; obviously, each of those albums has at least a few songs I consider to be favorites, so I didn't think they needed to be listed again.

  • Kiss, "Beth" (that was an easy one!)
  • Van Morrison, "Brown Eyed Girl" (ditto)
  • Bruce Springsteen, "Jersey Girl"
  • Four Seasons, "Oh What A Night"
