Tā. Dators pārstartēts (vispār liekas, ka kaut kad pienāks tā diena, kad visa lielā datoru un interneta pasaule vienkārši kaut kādā mirklī sabruks putekļos). Tātad. Manā uztverē absolūti superīgas dziesmas. "Bridge Over Troubled Water" (Simon & Garfunkel). "Suzanne" (autors Leonard Cohen, izpildītāji -- visi, kam nav slinkums). "Handbags and Gladrags" (pazīstamākie varianti -- Rod Stewart, Stereophonics). "Hey Jude", "Let it Be" un "Lady Madonna" (visi -- the Beatles). "Later" (Sonja Bishop, pirms pāris gadiem Latvijas Eirodziesmas finālā). "Mr. Pitiful" (daudz variantu, tajā skaitā filmā "The Commitments" -- dziesmas vidū ir vienkārši fantastisks klavieru "riff"). "Unchained Melody" ( vispazīstamākais izpildījums -- Rigteous Brothers, īpaši filmā "Ghost"). "Mēmā dziesma" (manuprāt vislabākais ir Bet Bet izpildījums). "Mony Mony" (daudz variantu, iespējams pazīstamākais izpildījums -- Billy Idol). "Hollywood Nights" un "Night Moves" (Bob Seger). "Mustang Sally" (izpildījums -- droši vien absolūti visi blues dziedātāji visā vēsturē, kopš dziesma ir sakomponēta 1965. gadā). "The Circle Game" (Joni Mitchell). "Proud Mary" (autors John Fogerty, protams vislabāk pazīstama dziesma pateicoties Tina Turner un viņas neģēlim vīram). No John Fogerty un Credence Clearwater Revival arī "Fortunate Sun" un "Down on the Corner". "I Drove All Night" (dziesma rakstīta Roy Orbison, labāk pazīstama Celine Dion un Cyndi Lauper variantos). "Love Can Move Mountains" un "Water From the Moon" (Celine Dion). "Woman in Love" (Barbara Streisand). "Never Can Say Goodbye" (pazīstamākie izpildītāji Gloria Gaynor un the Communards). "Don’t Leave Me This Way" (pazīstamākie izpildītāji Thelma Houston un atkal the Communards). Ļoti daudzas Crosby Still & Nash dziesmas, sevišķi "Teach Your Children Well", "Suite Judy Blue Eyes", "Helplessly Hoping" un "Love the One Your With". "Born to Be Alive" (Patrick Hernandez). "Smoke on the Water" (Deep Purple). "Magic Carpet Ride" un "Born to Be Wild" (Steppenwolf). "Jolene" (Dolly Parton). "Sunset Grill" (Don Henley). "Dance Me to the End of Love" un "Closing Time" (Leonard Cohn). Kā jau teicu, viss, ko jebkad ir dziedājis Elton John, bet sevišķi "Someone Saved My Life Tonight", "Something About the Way You Look Tonight", "Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me", "Gray Seal", "Levon" un Funeral for a Friend". "Wild Ride" (Dwight Yoakam). "In the Ghetto" un "Suspicious Minds" (Elvis Presley). "Thanks to You" (Emmylou Harris). "Orinoco Flow" (Enya). "Beautiful in My Eyes" (Joshua Kadison). "Baby, You Can Sleep While I Drive" (Melissa Etherdige). "Goodbye, My Lover" un "So Long Jimmy" (James Blunt). "The Chain", "Gold Dust Woman" un "Go Your Own Way" (Fleetwood Mac). "Stairway to Heaven" (Led Zeppelin). "You Can Leave Your Hat On" (Joe Cocker, Tom Jones). "Blue Morning, Blue Day" (Foreigner). "The Thunder Rolls" (Garth Brooks). "Everybody Hurts" un "Losing My Religion" (REM). "Freedom" (George Michael). "Whatever’s Written in Your Heart" (Gerry Rafferty). "Share the Land", "No Sugar Tonight" un "American Woman" (Guess Who). "November Rain" (Guns & Roses). "Sympathy for the Devil", "Angie" un "I Can’t Get No Satisfaction" (Rolling Stones). "Wuthering Heights" (Kate Bush). "Boondocks" (Little Big Town). "Tolerate This" (Manic Street Preachers). "Maggie May" (Rod Stewart). "Drops of Jupiter" un "Only Cab on the Road" (Train). "Wish You Were Here" (Rednex). "Let me Entertain You" un "Angels" (Robbie Williams). "Cat’s in the Cradle" (Harry Chapin). "The Boxer" un "America" (Simon & Garfunkel). "We Are Family" (Sister Sledge). "Take Your Mama Out Tonight" (Scissor Sisters). Nu, un daudzas citas, tajā skaitā manuprāt nepārspējamā Ziemassvētku dziesma -- "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer."
