My music............themes from my life

I've got what some might term an eclectic taste in music - others might call it a total mish mash. Anyway, here are the Top 10 'Most played' from my iTunes:

10. Do I Love You (Indeed I Do) - Frank Wilson.............If you weren't a Northern Soul afficionado, and didn't go to Wigan Casino in the early 70's, you never lived!

9. She's a Rainbow - Rolling Stones..........I loved it the first time around,  then rediscovered it through the Bravia ad.

8. Messa da Requiem: VII. Libera me: 3. Requiem aeternam - Sutherland and Solti...........I did say my taste is eclectic ;)

7. Layla - Derek and The Dominos...........the instrumental part is stunning

6. La Paloma - Julio Iglesias...........yes, I know, it's cheesy!

5. Trouble in Mind - Nina Simone OR Humph version...............memories. What more can I say?

4. The Whole of the Moon - Waterboys..........I just really like it

3. Eugene Onegin, Op. 24: (Scene 1) Polonaise - Orchestra of ROH, Solti......for some reason, it inspires me to get on and do things. Which is good, apparently.

2. Don't Go to Strangers - Etta Jones...........a jazz classic

1. Rhythm is a Dancer - Snap!.............I spent hours running round the lakes at Roundhay Park in 2008, training for the Great Yorkshire Run. This was the track on my iPod that I flicked to if I was flagging, and it always worked! So, I love it....

  1. Eclectic is good, shows tolerance for all sorts of music styles and not just for what's in vogue. :-)
