I got started late on this music posting thing- some of my picks are already posted (R-E-S-P-E-C-T/ Find out what it means to me...), but let me throw a couple of others in the mix.
I love, love, love Little Feat. This is an older song (from Let It Roll) but its a fairly recent performance and the lyrics are pretty timely. I could have put at least a dozen of their songs on my list, but I'm posting this one because it I listened to it once about 6 weeks ago and it's been stuck in my head off and on since.
I can't make a list without John Lee Hooker- he was the coolest cat ever. His biggest song might be One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer, but that has been associated with George Thoroughgood for a long time, so how about Boom! Boom!?
Stevie Ray Vaughan, can't leave him off my list. He's another one I can hardly pick just one for. Under duress, I'm posting Couldn't Stand the Weather. WAIT! Never mind. Let's do Life Without You.
You might now be saying these guys sound nothing like Adam, so how did I end up in love with Adam too? I think it's because of the genuine emotion they all sing with, but really? I have no idea.

The "Man" at BM is on top of the temple. So, does that mean the temple gets burned too?

At first I thought he was at BM because he was talking about the beauitufl desert sunset last night.

OMG, are any of you guys listening to BM stream right now? Hilarious story from a participant Flagrant about celebrities on the playa...will be back later to contribute my 5 songs and the story of private parties on the playa if no one else has yet. Gotta do my own personal burn at sunset! I want to hear the celebrity story. But doesn't a private party kind of violate the spirit of BM? :-/

Apologies if this has already been posted. It's such a favorite of mine, I wanted to claim it as one of my top five.

Also, it's a little known fact that the voice of Jiminy Cricket was also Otis on "The Andy Griffith Show," which I also love. LOL! Part of the fun of today's thread has been the flashbacks to the past and remembering when I first heard some of these songs. Lots of emotions stirred up, for sure. I used to watch reruns of The Andy Griffith Show and had a huge crush on Opie when I was 7 years old. He looked just like a kid in my class at school. A crush renewed when Ron Howard played Richie on Happy Days, lol. I'm amused that my first love was a ginger. ;D
