Soosan,
I love your songs! Kiss by Prince is second only to "I Want To Be Your Lover" by Prince, and I adore the Talking Heads. My favorite song is "Home" which I insisted be played at my wedding. I think they played Psycho Killer too, but I was too out of it to know for sure. Of course, my "Blue" album was as beat up as my CSN&Y album and my American Beauty album. Those albums are permanently embedded in my hard drive. We must be the same age or maybe we're just both weird.

If I had to be perfectly honest about songs, I would say:
1. Moondance - Van Morrison
2. Oooh baby baby - Smokey Robinson
3. Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing - Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell
4. I'm Gonna Make You Love Me - The Supremes & Temptations
5. Dancin In The Street - Martha Reeves & the Vandellas
But don't tell anyone. Can't let it get out that this hard-boiled attorney has a mushy side.
