    Back in the day, my boyfriend and I, a couple of dedicated hippies, lived in an apartment building right above a neighbor who didn't want us there so she played James Brown records 24/7 to annoy us. We used to be very careful to look disgruntled when we walked by her apartment to make sure she would never figure out how much we liked James Brown. We put a big mattress on our floor so she wouldn't hear us dancing to her music right above her

    I remember my sister and I were at a Temptations concert and we wanted a cigarette so badly. She said, "Let's wait for a bad song and we'll go to the lobby for a smoke ", and then looked at each other like, "Yeah, right. Like the Temptations ever sang a bad song". We waited for a song we didn't know all the lyrics to and joined a crowd of smokers in the lobby. When the first seven notes of My Girl started, everyone in the lobby silently looked at each other, threw their cigarettes and stampeded back into the theater! One of my best concert memories!

Also a tune that I think should be on the list is probably the most popular songs during the Christmas Holidays every year...Mariah Carey's, All I want for Christmas is you. I'm not really a dancer, but it's hard to stay still every time I hear it.

    Minutes after my newborn daughter was born, I found myself holding her while she cried, as one does. In my wish to convey my assurance to my bewildered baby girl, I found myself softly singing, "Three Little Birds," as she slowly calmed down. I never wanted to stop, and apparently neither did my daughter... or her little sister after her. Almost a decade later, whenever they need Daddy to help through a truly tough time, they will ask me to sing this song to them.
    It still works...
