View Poll Results: What is Music? (Poll added on 6th of May 2012).
Simon and Garfunkel - I am a rock; Bridge over troubled waters
Black Sabbath - Paranoid
John Denver - many tracks
Adele
Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody
Music has always provided the soundtrack to my life, with favourite artists and tracks changing according to my moods, constant overall favourite since my teens has been John Denver.
When I started collecting LPs I found a lot of John Denver, like this one:
Back Home Again (1974) e.g: https://youtu.be/f_2PcNl3r7A John Denver- The Music Is You (1974, LP) https://youtu.be/FOTOc_UvHfA John Denver- This Old Guitar (1974, LP)
John Denver's 'Back Home Again' vinyl LP was the first one that I ever bought. Since then I've accumulated several more JD's, either vinyl or cd, and my sister collected half a dozen others (coincidentally without any duplicates with mine) which in recent times I've copied, so I now have a fair collection of tracks.
It was a tragedy for environmental issues, and music, that he died as young as he did.
Good read on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Denver
I've not got to Rio Grande Park in Aspen, Colorado yet but will be sure to bring an .ogg player...
Rokytnji+ sometimes is best listening to two tracks at once... I had put Joe Walsh's - So What LP on when I saw your post so I skimmed it, then went back to Regina Spektor - Chemo Limo at which point Time out started and the two mashed up perfectly (wish I was recording!) Never know what we'll swim into?

Bob Dylan - Don't Think Twice It's Alright. From the “Freewheeling” record.
I have always had more than 1 “favorite song”. But this one had stayed in the list and always on top, since I was about 12 and alone at home with my older brother's record-collection.
Some years ago, I had even used a crappy notebook-microphone to record those chords for sort of a “jingle” for my web-site. As my fingernails are fragile and keep cracking, I use a plectrum more and more often... The results are never quite what I am after. Yeah. I cannot but thrust this on you: 1piece.ogg.
