Wow, I really enjoyed this article. Many of these songs take me back. You have quite a mixture of really good Rock and Roll music. These songs are not just great at parties, but they make you feel good at anytime. Also there is a bit of nostalgia with music you grow up listening to. It always brings back simpler times, though at the time things may seem so important. I like your list really well.
