Also: 19th Nervous Breakdown is the Rolling Stones, not The Who.
Wow, no idea how that happened.
I trust everyone will know what I meant.
mmm
I voted for 19th Nervous… and didn’t even notice.
Hehehe, “4th Of July” is X, not Concrete Blonde.
Just thought of 22 Acacia Avenue - Iron Maiden. Oh well.

Both are my bad. I was probably already thinking about looking up a link to the Concrete Blonde performance later in my list when I was typing the X song. And the Wilson Pickett song? I just fat-fingered that one.
Hey, at least the links go to the right songs and performers!
We have a tie for the Number One “I” song and we need to have a showdown.
Please go here to vote.
mmm

Too late to add “2120 South Michigan Avenue” by The Rolling Stones?
At first I voted for Satisfaction, Don’t Fear the Reaper, and 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover.
Sorry Paul, I had to take yours out and and replaced it with Otis’s Dock of the Bay.
Tough call.
I see your 5:15, and raise you 905.
Just a heads up on a new rule : Please do not post title suggestions for others to submit. This takes a little of the fun out of the process.
It is ok, after the polls are posted, to name titles that have been overlooked.
Thanks,
mmm
