Are you asking other people to post songs they think are universally loved regardless of a stereo's quality? Sounds like way too big a target to bother hitting. Like you said, so many diff. people, so many diff. tastes.
I can think of songs that just floor me, but I know a lot of other people wouldn't care about.
Or did you just want to promote your Irish taste in music? hehehe
C'mon Azryan, I know it is a big target but this isn't a finite medium. I am very interested in what others think are the knockout tracks. All of them. I don't care how many there are.
The only reason my list was so Irish is that I was listening to a few Irish compilations this morning when I posted.
Kiss from a Rose is almost there for me too. It used to be but I haven't listened for a long, long time as I over played it.
Private Investigations from Dire Straits just came to mind.
BTW, a good recording is also important, but there are tracks that I am really into that weren't recorded well so I assume other will have similar experiences.
