[ducktrapper]

Hey Uncle Rob, I decided on the way in to work this morning with Waiting For Columbus on the stereo, that Spanish Moon may be the best rock'n'roll song ever.
Here's mine (but you can only hold me to them for a day).

Spanish Moon - Little Feat
I Feel Fine - Beatles
It Makes No Difference - The Band

[kilgorekid]

I'm with Unclrob on Doctor My Eyes
Also:                     Deacon Blues   Steely Dan
                           I Left My Heart In San Francisco      Tony Bennett

I won't mention any of Lawrence Welk's polka classics!

[poki]

Rocky Mountain High - John Denver
Country Roads -  John Denver
Dust in the Wind - Kansas

not sure if these are my absolute tops but they remind me of favorite places where i'd like to live and sort of once did long ago.

[jimmy buffett]

I was just playing Rocky Mountain High just this evening, and I second poki's selections, along with Dr My Eyes from unclrob.  I would have to add Reeling in the Years by Steely Dan to my list (and of course, Ricky Don't Lose That Number  ).

I want to add

Going up the Country -canned heat

[ducktrapper]

I could pick a different three every day for ... ever prolly. Today esses.

Stuck in The Middle - Stealer's Wheel
Smoke of a Distand Fire - Sandford/Townsend Band 
Satisfaction - Stones

[naboz]

How's this for varied;
Conversation 1 & 2, Chicago,
Are You Going With Me, Pat Metheny,
Turning, Turning Back, Alex DeGrassi...
come to ponder, these could be my desert island picks, but I can carry much more nowadays on the ol' mp3 player!

[Celticjam]

My ipod says:

1. Let It Be - Beatles
2. Acadian Driftwood - Band
3. Willin' - Little Feat

Side note -- 4. is Doctor My Eyes

[flaggerphil]

"Satisfaction"  The Stones
"City of New Orleans"  Arlo Guthrie
"Living in the Past"  Jethro Tull

At least for today...

[bucky1]

Tom Paxton- Leaving London
John Prine- Souvenirs (OK, all of his other songs, too)
Kinks- A Rock and Roll Fantasy

[ducktrapper]

Today?

Mr. Crabby - Lambchop
What's He Building - Tom Waits
2-4-6-8 Motorway - Tom Robinson Band

[Novalis]

Very tough question, probably I could give a different answer every day depending on my mood, but here's a go at it:
1) Candles in the Rain/Lay Down (Candles in the Rain); the first two tracks on the 1970 Melanie album should only count as one song.
2) 49 Bye-Byes by CSN
3) The Weight by The Band

[mudbox]

Last to Know, by the delightful Alejandro Escovedo
Chivalry, the perennially contentious Mekons
Beat the Retreat, the redoubtable  Richard Thompson

Hear 'em and weep....

[eon462]

I think I would grow tired of any song if I heard it enough

[Mantula]

1) Aiofe by Flairck (don't forget to check Erik Visser's guitar collection !)
2) Distant Son by Dougie MacLean (my favorite musician by far)
3) Meta Sequoia by Harry Sacksioni (from the Netherlands)
