I know a few of those, but I can't get this one song out of my head to even form what any of those could be, if it happens to go away. I might come back and try some of these =)

#13 is Rodney Atkins, "It's America".
#18 is "Wildfire" by Michael Martin Murphey (also covered by Tracy Byrd, but the MMM version has prettier piano work.)
#21 is "Total Eclipse of the Heart", Bonnie Tyler (? on artist)
#24 is "Perfect", Sara Evans.

Yep, those are correct. I had forgotten Tracy Byrd covered "Wildfire". He did an OK job, but the song doesn't fit him. Michael's version is the only one in my eyes. :) Love this song and always have.

I hadn't listen to my Sara Evans songs in a long time...now I can't get "Perfect" out of my head.

The piano beginning to MMM's "Wildfire" is what always blows me away.

I would listen to Tracy Byrd sing the telephone book, but that's just me. (My dream tour: Gary Allan opens for Tracy Byrd and Brad Paisley.)

It is definitely an awesome sound and so soothing. Anytime I hear it, I just transport to peace. :)

That's a great tour. I'm kind of a stickler when it comes to songs. Typically, the version I know is the one I love. Any remake - or even the original - is iffy. There are a few where I find the original or remake (which ever may be the case) is better or equal. The one that I'm thinking of right now is "Could Not Ask for More" by Edwin McCain, later sang by Sara Evans. (Yes, Sara is still plaguing me.)

1, Get it On sung by T Rex (Woke up to this song)
5, Swaying to the Music aka Slow Dancing - Johnny Rivers (our wedding song all those years ago - You made my day)
6, Magic Man sung by Heart (addictive song and I've always loved the seductive beat)
15, Fast as You sung by Dwight Yoakum (he cracks me up)
22, Leather & Lace sung by Stevie Nicks and ?? Henley (I can't think of his first name) (Awesome love song and made me a Stevie fan)
-A few others are very familiar but I can't place them. Wildfire rocks. I use to daydream to this song. I dated myself on my answers. Why did I only get the older songs? I guess awesome never dies. Right?

Good job.
#22 is Don Henley.
Have to agree with you on #6. The song is eerie but addictive.

Absolutely...awesome songs become classics and they live eternally. :)

Those are all correct. Country rocks.

If you think of others, stop on back.

No. 3 is Let it be me from Ray Lamontage, from Fringe Olivia/Lucas
No 9 is Foreplay/Long Time from Boston, personally only care for the Long Time chords but they go hand in hand
No 10 is I Can Help from Billy Swan, remember the hospital commercial? ^_^
No.25 is The Mating Game from Bittersweet, also one heck of a vid of Sparky (in its day)

I should know a couple of the others but my mind is not finding the song titles. I've gotta say Nos 1 & 6 are awesome.

Good job. I fell in love with the song in #3 and one of my favorite scenes is Lucas and Olivia during this song. :)

Agreed on #9. I don't care for Foreplay part. Too long.

#10 - yes. It's a fun, upbeat song.

I didn't think anyone would get #25. Sparky love.

I love your icon. :)
