OT: What's your favorite song from every band you ever listened to?
My husband and I are driving from Chicago to Phoenix next week to take in some Cubs spring training and have been looking for ways to bide the time during the drive. He came up with a game and we've been obsessed ever since. We're each creating a playlist consisting of our one favorite song from every band we ever liked or listened to. It's a daunting task considering we're both in our late 50's. We'll listen to and critique each others list over the course of the drive. He already has 6 hours worth of songs. I'm not suggesting you put your lists here, just giving you an interesting challenge in these football-free months. If you're into music, it actually can be a challenge to pick just one, especially from a favorite band.
