In other words......mine is a tribute to the best singers and bands as well as me
Ya know, a few months back I was looking at a few Meatloaf titles that I wanted to select to make a great Meatloaf mix and I saw the track Life Is A Lemon and thought "man, that kinda sounds a little cheesy and childish", but I decided to download it anyways just for the hell of it.At first listen I thought it wasn't all that bad, but the more I listen to it, the more I like it now.It's got a somewhat sinister, evil sound to it (which I like) rather than just a basic old pop-rock song.

Anyways, I'll always have music in my head and a hell of a lot of it...lol!!!I already have an enormous collection of music of just about any style including rock (both hard, soft and regular), funk, blues, soul/r n b, jazz, progressive, psychedelic, metal (of all kinds) and even some hip-hop which only widens my collection year after year.Putting the concept of tracks that I'd deem appropriate for my whole family to hear at my funeral, I'd enjoy for them to hear tracks like these:
