Re: 1001 Songs You Must Hear Before You Die

O dear! I'm busy at work but can't take my eyes off that index! It's not just a mammoth of a list, but the selections are awesome, they haven't been afraid to put a lot of recent stuff next to the old classics. And they didn't include Stairway to Heaven and I Want to Hold Your Hand even among the 10,001, so apparently they didn't feel that they had to include the canon, which is refreshing. Woohoo!

Re: 1001 Songs You Must Hear Before You Die

Picture: Trío Matamoros

The list includes some gems that never appear on such lists.

Lágrimas negras (Black tears) is one of my favorites

There is also a flamenco song: Camarón, sung by Pata Negra (it is a good representation of Spanish music, much better than "Dale a tu cuerpo alegría, Macarena," which was the only Spanish song that was on AM until recently).

The first seven (O sole mio, St. Louis Blues, Allons a Lafayette, Lágrimas Negras, Pokarekare Ana, Saint James Infirmary, El Manisero)) are wonderful.

Thank you, o.m.

Wow...

10,001- crazy. Great find, o.m.

So for AM purposes (whenever this gets added)- I take it the bolded titles- those spotlighted in the book- would get the most weight, and then the other titles (non-bolded in the index) lesser weight?

I also like that some of the usuals aren't included- gives some others more exposure.

Love the "Guilty By Association" (Joe Henry/Madonna) inclusion. That also was included in Q's 500 Greatest Lost Tracks.

I Wonder...

if Henrik will include just the 1,001 songs, or also include the other 9,000 or so? That would require some assistance (which I could always provide when the time comes- I did work on that 7,500 Most Important Songs feature, after all!)

JR, I am working on a spreadsheet for people to help me out. Do you have Excel now?

I Have...

a trial version that has so many "opens' left on it. Regarding the info we worked on for the last update, was that in Excel when I sent it to you?

No, it wasn't. I am thankful for all kinds of help so I'm not saying that you need to buy MS Office in order to help me, but it would make things a little easier for both of us I think.
