      None of those four even close to my top 15. "While my...". would be the closest. Although "Hey Jude". would be top 20 too

          There is one song that has been my favorite from the first time I heard it . will it make it to me?

                  I think I recall and I think it will.
                  If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

                    Who is the rule keeper? you couldnt buy any of those songs individually - could you/

                    I will abide by the ruling of Lucky.

                      As much as I appreciate the compliment, I don't relish the idea of being the rule keeper.

                      I will say this...I seem to remember someone saying earlier in one of our threads that medleys counted as the individual songs in them. If so, I'd be inclined to stay with that. Some of the medley stands on its own, some doesn't. Some I'd pick alone, some not. As a whole, one of the finest pieces of music ever, IMO, a certain top six pick.

                        There are valid arguments either way, so the decision was to keep it the same as it was in the earlier draft -- each individual song is one pick. Revo made his pick based on this ruling, so it's not fair to change it now.

                          The Rule Keeper is always modest.
                          Considering his only baseball post in the past year was bringing up a 3 year old thread to taunt Hornsby and he's never contributed a dime to our hatpass, perhaps?

                            Three George songs in the first eight picks. I like it.

                              'Something' is #3 on my list.
