Willie Nelson -I think the Elvis and Michael Buble covers are just as great.
Also Fly Me to the Moon - Sinatra, and Ribbon in the Sky - Stevie Wonder are a couple songs that I would be fine with if they were the only songs left on the planet that I could ever hear.
but can't play it all the way through without hitting "next" ... or listening to a discography for a particular group/artist and find myself hitting "next" for multiple songs that I don't particularly love by that artist...
It is indeed rare that I can select an artist and just let it play for hours without ever hitting "next" for any song or part of a song ... that I literally enjoy listening to the entire song of whatever song happens to play for an artist
Rod Stewart and John Fogerty/CCR are the artists for me...
I can literally put on music on random for the above and just let it play and 8 hours later I will not have touched the keyboard to skip a single song.
(together with the The Beatles, Dylan, Eagles, Abba, Sting, Neil Diamond, Meatloaf... haha, I had to stop or else the list may never have ended)
Imagine

Like A Rolling Stone--Dylan.

Lots of Beatles Songs in my second 10, none near the top, strangely.
Want a laugh? See the Billboard top 100 of all time. A remarkably awful list.

Someone else listed Danny Boy; Jackie Wilson singing Danny Boy is gonna' give any other song a pretty solid run for the money.
Also Fly Me to the Moon - Sinatra, and Ribbon in the Sky - Stevie Wonder are a couple songs that I would be fine with if they were the only songs left on the planet that I could ever hear.
Worst. Song. Ever.
Also, if you're a Robert Johnson fan I hope you like Charley Patton too.
Louis Prima - Sing,Sing,Sing - ( New Window )
Thunder Road by Bruce...
+1
When talking about music, I have never understood why people use the word "best" when "favorite" is a much more accurate word choice.
