Give me a few minutes and I can play this song on probly most instruments. :)
If you don't know this song perhepps it's time to stop living under a rock. Unless you've immigrated or are visiting from another country, in which case I guess you're off the hook.

"Wildflowers" - Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers

a) this one took me awhile to figure out..

c) but it would be a good song to be played, perhaps by someone who is not me...

30 Songs in 30 Days: Song # 23

30 Songs in 30 Days: Day 23 - A Song That You Want to Play at Your Wedding
"Until You" - Dave Barnes

I dont know that i would want it during the ceremony. but it'll have to be in the reception mix somewhere. The first time I heard this I was at one of DB's concerts and I spent the whole song with my jaw dropped open because the song was so lovely. he definitely saw me halfway through and smiled at my astoundedness.

Coming in at a close second is this one:
"God Gave Me You" - Dave Barnes

30 Songs in 30 Days: Song # 22

30 Songs in 30 Days: Day 22 - A Song That You Listen to When You're Sad
"Rain" - Patty Griffin

and

"Elevator" - Sheila Nichollsthis song blew my mind the first time i listened to it. it is heavy and trudges in the valleys with its weight. it's yet undiscovered by the youtubers.

There are actually two songs I listen to when I'm angry, depending on my mood.

"I Think I'm Paranoid" - Garbage


just-breathe, calm-it-down mood:
"Strawberry Kiss" - Orien (Dub Police)

30 Songs in 30 Days: Song # 19

30 Songs in 30 Days: Day 19 - A Song From Your Favorite Album
"Who Are We Fooling" - Brooke Fraser


(note: listen in HD, it sounds much better!) This song is from the album Flags. I don't really have an all-time favorite album - it rotates and changes from month to month, but I think this group of songs is amazingly written, and was probably my favorite album in 2010.

30 Songs in 30 Days: Song # 18

30 Songs in 30 Days: Day 18 - A Song That You Wish You Heard On the Radio
"Fallen For You" - Sheila Nicholls



When I played out more I used to cover this song a lot and the chord progressions always got my brain turned in knots. I love her songwriting and vocals. Weighty and daring at times. Thanks, Robert, for writing her name on the whiteboard in that room in ESM, oh i guess its been 3 or 4 years now since that day ...
