My Top Best Favorite Songs of All Time!

These are definitely my all time favorite John Lennon songs....

I'd class Working Class Hero as one of the most infuential and important songs to me!

I love John for his truth... for his wisdom and for his talent! WHAT A MAN!!

And Watching the Wheels I find myself really relating to... and it has such a gorgeous melody too. Another result of John Lennon's genius.

This is very rare footage of Paul jammin' when he's first writing and creating the song Blackbird. It's here you can see for sure that the tapping in the song is from Paul's shoes.

I believe this incredible film clip is a small clip of the genius that was Paul McCartney.
His genius... partnered with John's genius created so much of the best music ever created!

I started listening to this song when I was about 13 years old using my Mum's vinyl LP Tapestry record.

Since that day it has always been the most powerful and most beautiful song to me. If you ask my brother he'd probably tell you how annoying I was at one stage because of how often I played it :)

This song is ME... that's how I feel anyway.. it's truly how I feel and it's truly what I do each and every day (well at least try to do). I always felt like this song was a confirmation to me... almost like a pat on a back as well as a guide for me to stay focused on smiling to the world and showing all the love in my heart. :)

This song means so very much to me and I would defintely say it was the first favourite song I ever had in my life.

This song has been my own personal anthem since I was 19 years old when I first bought the brilliant Crowded House album 'Recurring Dream'.

I've used it many a time to get me through hard times and I'll use it plenty more in the future!

To me this song tells me... no matter what happens in life... it's ok... at least it didn't kill you... keep going!

The words to this song are just so beautiful... I believe they describe unconditional love! The kind we all need in our lives and the kind we all must give in order to receive it!

All my friends and family tell me all the time that I'm a hopeless reminiscer! I can't help it... I just love to take trips down memory lane whenever and wherever I can... and I feel like this song is my soundtrack to those journeys :)

An oldie... but an oh so goodie :)

NB - unfortunately Youtube restrictions would not allow me to post the original music video from the song so if you want to watch just search the song directly via youtube.

My older brother introduced this song to me and it moved me from the first time I heard it.

It's a Jazz Blues song from the 60's.. it's just sensational!!

Savoy Brown's album Raw Sienna is so cool if you're looking for awesome Jazz Blues!

Since my brother died this song has been my way of feeling him when I need to... I listen to it and think of him.

There's just something so beautiful about this song... I absolutely adore it and have for over 10 years. I can listen to it over and over!

it's about 'That's the Way'...

This song sends shivers up my spine every time.
I listen to this song... a lot... it's a very positive song for me... it uplifts me... it re-charges my purpose!

I remember when I first heard it and how I was instantly in love with it... but then after researching about it... It was made even more special to me when I found out what the lyrics where actually about and why Sarah Machlachlan wrote it.

She wrote it after reading a Rolling Stone article about a musician turning to heroin and subsequently overdosing. She said she could completely relate because although she'd never done heroin... she'd done plenty of other things to try and run away from pain and responsibility.

Quoting Sarah:
"I've been in that place... where you're so fuc$ed up and you're so lost that you don't know who you are anymore, and you're miserable.. and suddenly here before you is an escape route. I've never done heroin... but I"ve done plenty of things to escape."

She has said previously that this song is about "trying not to take responsibility for other people's $hit and trying to love yourself at the same time"

Well...I completely relate on every level. Not only does her stunning voice touch a deep part of me.. but the words and meaning mean even more because I ran from my pain in my early 20's! I ran for a long time! I still struggle from time to time... feeling myself starting to take the direction of wanting to run and not confronting my feelings but thankfully I've now learned enough and am in a strong enough place that I know I'll never run like I did again!

This song is the epitomy of breathtaking to me! It's just stunning!

And it's one of the songs I love to listen to that just confirms my belief in love being THE most important thing in life.

And I completely adore Adele!!

I remember when this song first released many years ago... I could not stop listening to it. I would put it on in my house during the days at full ball and listen to it over and over. It would make me feel incredible every time I listened to it... still does!

Each and every time I hear this it gives me little goosebumps.
Tina's voice is absolutely breathtaking when partnered with this beautiful song.
One of my absolute favourites!

There's just something about this song that I love so much.

I do have a strong belief that fear is what cripples us so I guess this song reminds me of my beliefs and re-inforces that I should always try not not to let the fear control me.

A song from one of my all time favourite movies - Puberty Blues.

It's such a lovely sound to this... especially the chorus.. it's a very haunting song.

I'm a Massive fan of Aussie music from the 70's & 80's... I'll do another lense on all my favourites in that genre cause that list is a BIG one!

But a standout one for me is this awesone Men at Work song.. actually there's not many Men at Work songs I don't like.

I found Tunng about 12 months ago and instantly had a big crush on them!
