Like a Rolling Stone- Dylan
Almost any instrumental version is fine, but if the lyrics matter go with Sinatra. (Laura, that is)
I promise you this one will get my vote. I don’t know the other one by the Residents, but that’s okay.
This is tough, more like three of my favorite songs that I could think of that begin with “L”, but here’s mine at this moment:
Loomer - My Bloody Valentine
Like a Prayer - Madonna (that bass line is killer!)
Love on a Farmboy’s Wages - XTC
Let it Bleed, Rolling Stones
Leopard Skin Pillbox Hat - Dylan (as performed by Beck)
Let The Monkey Drive - Sparks
Lido Shuffle - Boz Scaggs
Lucifer, The Alan Parsons Project
Little sparrow- Dolly Parton
Love is a battlefield- Pat Benatar
Like a Virgin- Madonna
Love Stinks - J. Geils Band
Long, Long Time - Linda Ronstadt
Lilac Wine - Eartha Kitt
Little Wing, Jimi Hendrix and/or Stevie Ray Vaughn
Living in the USA, Steve Miller Band
Long Stick Goes Boom, Krokus
Last Christmas – Post Modern Jukebox
Life in the Fast Lane – Eagles
And another vote for Long, Long Time.
We are over the limit, but what the heck, keep it going and I’ll do two polls.
mmm
Outstanding choice.

Listen Like Thieves - INXS
Long Day - Matchbox 20
Lady - Styx
Some last minute additions:
Loan Me A Dime - Boz Scaggs (the best Non-Allmans Allmans song)
Ladies of the Canyon - Joni (cuz’ you got to have Joni)
Last Day of Our Acquaintance - Sinéad (see: Joni)
Let the Mystery Be - Iris DeMent (A philosophical song))
Lion in the Winter - Hoyt Axton & Linda Ronstadt (No one ever mentions how good she was at duets)
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N. - Noah And The Whale
Let Your Yeah Be Yeah - The Pioneers
Life On Mars? - David Bowie
