so over at facebook, people are doing these 25 lists…..

my friend jon moy tagged me on this, a different kind…but i was unsure of the rules except what was in the title. he wanted to do a version of the random 25 that was not as pretentious. in my continuing efforts to descend the ivory tower that seems to be my lot in life, i will do this too.

here at agapeshack.com, i will also periodically post videos of the songs as a public service to people who want to hear the soundtrack in my head. but first, the list:

U2 bad
U2 all I want is you
U2 stay
Radiohead let down
Rolling stones under my thumb
Beatles in my life
Arcade fire wake up
Killers all these things that I’ve done
Stone temple pilots plush
Frank Sinatra new york, new york

these are songs that i chose for a mix of reasons….some define me…some played crucial roles at turning points in my life…some continue to shape me….some i can listen to over and over…some i would jump to hear live…and many if not most, encompass all these reasons.

because it is so hard to narrow down to 10…i have included 2 more songs that are more recent and perhaps would have made the list if they had been born first/before. tough luck, come laters.
