60 Day Challenge: Day 2: Your top six favorite songs.

Norah Jones-The Nearness of You
The Nearness of You has been covered numerous times, but it's magical coming out of Norah Jones. I was flipping through the channels at one point, and it was on a movie (can't even remember the movie now). Miss Norah Jones herself was sitting at a piano singing this song, and I loved it. Every time I've heard it since then, I can't help but think "I'm going to dance to this song at my wedding." Really--can you imagine loving someone so much that being near that person is enough?



U2 feat. Mary J. Blige -One
Love conquers all. We really do have to carry each other.



Shakira-Suerte Yeeaaahhhh! I love Shakira--I feel like we're kindred spirits because we're both petite (Who else can pull off lyrics that when loosely translated mean "Lucky that my breasts are small and humble so you don't confuse them with mountains?") And plus, this version appeals more to me than the English version, Whenever, Wherever




Coldplay-Til Kingdom Come
I love the acoustics. I love the lyrics. I love the vocals.  It's just beautiful.



Nancy Sinatra-Bang Bang
I love a song that tells a story, and really no one can do it better than a classic voice like Nancy Sinatra.

So I know I'm supposed to post 6 songs, but I've decided that when it comes to blogging, the rules don't really apply to me. And plus, I reserve the 6th song that I happen to like now but may not like later. The five above are pretty much stable.
