Not my genre, but can’t see what makes this stand out amongst all the rest of them that get the same lyric in there, ‘serious as cancer’, somehow.

It’s not speaking to me but I find a lot of the celebrated lyricists as unoriginal and boring.

You were losing me again even with the Beach Boys(I know, I know, it’s a classic), but Stevie is great.

One of the most beautiful songs ever written, hands down. In my top 100 for sure.

51. Pump it Up - Elvis Costello & The Attractions

He's a tough one. Every Day I Write The Book would be my favorite of his I think. I liked him in the old days and his first three records were good, but I rarely play his music any longer. Not sure why -- it doesn't suit the mood of an older fella maybe? Of course he's also a Liverpool fan and a bit of a douchebag, so maybe that's why I don't care any more.

lovely song and powerful insight into her relationship with Mr Dylan.

not sure how you can go from that Rap stuff to this - nevertheless good choice.

Even the cover by Judas Priest is great.
