Ten Songs I Will Play Over And Over And Over Again If Nobody's Around To Stop Me

  1. "Abandoned Love" by Bob Dylan
  2. "Angel" by Bob Dylan
  3. "Boots of Spanish Leather" by Nanci Griffith (a Dylan cover)
  4. "Brokedown Palace" by the Grateful Dead
  5. "If You Knew" by Jeff Buckley (a Nina Simone cover)
  6. "Redwood Tree" by Van Morrison
  7. "Sweet Lorraine" by Patty Griffin
  8. "Wagon Wheel" by Old Crow Medicine Show (a Dylan cover)
  9. "Warmth of the Sand" by Dashboard Confessional
  10. "Yellow Ledbetter" by Pearl Jam

For a girl who professes to be madly in love with Van Morrison, you'd think there'd be a bit more VanMo and a bit less Dylan on the list, wouldn't you?

Jeff Buckley = dying cats

First of all - I dig the different background.
I am SHOCKED at the lack of Jack Johnson on this list. And I'm a bit surprised at the VanMo choice - awesome song, but surprising that was the sole selection.

And, of course, what about the infamous Dexys Night Runners' "Come on Eileen"?

It hasn't been the same between me and Jack Johnson since the alley behind Iota. I mean, really, once you've seen the guy wander out of the bar into the freezing cold to sit on the ground and play a few songs for those who can't get in, no other listening experience quite compares.
