Balls To The Wall - Accept

Back In Black - AC/DC

Blues Before Sunrise - Leroy Carr

Ball Of Confusion - The Temptations

Bo Diddley - Bo Diddley

I don’t know this one, but I’d vote for the song of the same name by Neil Sedaka.

It’s pretty obscure, kind of niche music, but I’m into that indie hipster stuff.

:smile: You kids!

I’ll go with another one of those indie, hipster tunes from Taytay:

Blank Space - Taylor Swift
Big Time - Peter Gabriel
Bring Me To Life - Evanescence
Bob - “Weird Al” Yankovic

still thinking about one more that someone else hasn’t already jumped on…

I came up with “Blank Generation” by Richard Hell and the Voidoids and “Bye Bye Love” by the Everly Brothers after I posted my five nominations. Maybe you like one of those?

ETA: and only now I thought of CCR’s “Born On The Bayou” :man_facepalming:. It’s one of my favorite rock songs. Does anybody want to take it?

The Everly Brothers it is!

Bye Bye Love - The Everly Brothers

Thanks!

Boris - Melvins

(Been looking forward to b)

Build Voice - Dan Deacon

Black Grease - Black Angels

(It might be their best song, and they generally rule)

Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath

(still so damn heavy)

Begin the Begin - REM

You’ve got one more, “Begin The Begin” has already been posted.

Baltimore - Nils Lofgren
Brandy (You’re A Fine Girl) - Looking Glass
Brilliant Blues - Pete Townshend
Black And White - Todd Rundgren
Band On The Run - McCartney/Wings

Lots of good stuff already suggested, so this time I’m sticking to a loose theme:

Billions - Caroline Polachek
Burning Bridges - Sigrid
Beach Boy - Benee
Blank Space (Taylor’s Version) - Taylor Swift
Barely On My Mind - The Regrettes

I feel like I’ve just been exposed as a shill for Scooter Braun.

(The) Boys Of Summer - Don Henley
Baker Street - Gerry Rafferty
Behind the Wheel - Depeche Mode
Bizarre Love Triangle - New Order
Borderline - Madonna

Black Horse and a Cherry Tree - KT Tunstall

Black Magic Woman - Santana

Black Sheep - Gin Wigmore

Boogie on Reggae Woman - Stevie Wonder

Bungle in the Jungle - Jethro Tull

This is a letter with a lot of good songs! I came up with a list of about 30 candidates just off the top of my head.

Bring It On Home To Me - Sam Cooke
Boulder to Birmingham - Emmylou Harris
Blackbird - Nina Simone (definitely not the Beatles song)
Blue - Lucinda Williams
Big Country Blues - Townes Van Zandt

Looking these over, I must be in a melancholy mood today.

Left for others to nominate: The Ballad of Ira Hayes - Johnny Cash; Behind Blue Eyes - The Who; Bloodletting - Concrete Blonde; Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain - Willie Nelson; Box of Rain - The Grateful Dead; Boys in Town - The Divinyls; Big River - Johnny Cash

D’oh, my favorite Who song, and I forgot it.
