Memory Lane Songs

I'll have a first pass at this for popular music:

• Favorite melody - "And Your Bird Can Sing" -- The Beatles
  
• Favorite rhythm - "Ticket to Ride" -- The Beatles and "Johnny B. Goode" -- Chuck Berry (my daughter loves to dance to this)
  
• Favorite overall music - Rock and Roll
  
• Favorite lyrics - "Strawberry Fields Forever" -- The Beatles or "Quicksand" -- David Bowie
  
• Favorite way in which song evokes emotion (good or bad)

1. Good - "And Your Bird Can Sing" version from Anthology II-- The Beatles
2. Mixed - "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing" -- Aerosmith
3. Bad - A Kate Smith song (racist)
   

• Favorite way in which song evokes memory (slight variant of emotion) - "Driving Home For Christmas" -- Chris Rea
• Favorite in terms of boldest departure from previous songs by artist -- The Beatles "White Album" or "Low" by David Bowie.
  
• Favorite in terms of influence on your life in some way or fashion "Live Forever" - Oasis. Fisrt guitar solo i ever really learnt. A great tribute song to John Lennon.

And your good self sir?

I can put up with the resident parent picking on me but when she picks on Katherine I get damned annoyed. God grant us the strength to endure this spiteful soul.
