CDs I own for (pretty much) one song

Lisa Loeb – Firecracker – “I Do”
Chris Cornell – Euphoria Morning – “Can’t Change Me”
Buckcherry – Buckcherry – “Borderline”
Ben Folds Five – Naked Baby Photos – “Tom & Mary”
Hackers soundtrack – “Connected” by Stereo MCs
Liz Phair – Whip-Smart – “Supernova”
Phish – Farmhouse – “Heavy Things”
The Raspberries – Greatest Hits – “Go All the Way”
Nina Simone – Best of Nina Simone – “Sinnerman”
Red Sovine – Greatest Hits – “I Didn’t Jump the Fence”
Now 15 – “Toxic” by Britney Spears
Pink Floyd – Wish You Were Here – “Shine on you Crazy Diamond” (OK, that’s a bit of a joke for you real music lovers out there)

Postscript: As I typed in this post, I’ve been listening to Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers Pack up the Plantation – Live! If you’ve never heard this CD, it’s a live recording of a Tom Petty concert and when he performs “Breakdown” he doesn’t need to sing the first verse. Everybody in the audience knows the words. After the chorus, Petty faux-laments “You’re gonna put me out of a job.” One of the better concert CDs, IMHO.

You've posted about Naked Baby Photos before. I think!

Listen to Emaline, and Eddie Walker. They're some of Ben Folds best work.

Twin Falls is pretty good, too.




(and so is every other thing Ben Folds is on :) )

That would be the 20 Greatest Hits collection; the 16 greatest hits album has neither I Didn't Jump The Fence nor Phantom 309, the song I would pretty much own it for.

I urge you to crack open that Raspberries CD, and give the following tracks another shot at coating your ear with gooey goodness:

"I Wanna Be With You"
"Let's Pretend"
"Overnight Sensation"
