One of my favorite at work is called "Dancing in the Moonlight"...easy listening 70's standard but I see a cartoon in my head of cats and dogs romping together

By My Side by Ben Harper. Only just discovered him but he is a great artist. Chilled and relaxing but very skilled

Thats a classic, for sure. Another one was his rendition of Lucky Old Sun.

My favorite song is "Same Love" by Macklemore because the lyrics send a message that today's world needs to hear.

My favorite I heard today was Hobo Bills Last Ride by Jimmie Rogers. Sad song.

I heard a cute one yesterday, Parody of the Swanee River by S. H. Dudley. Its a place to give you inflamation of the liver, 40 kinds of fever. big alligators to bite your legs off and so on. I laughed my butt off. Its got a few racist lines in it, that was the norm in 1906 when this was recorded, but if you ignore that its a hoot.

Macklemore - Same Love. Not the typical hip-hop song. Beautiful message

Currently, my favorite song is, Where Do I Begin by Andy Williams. I love Shirley Bassey's version though ... or Rick Astley's.
