2.  Walking in Your Footsteps--The Police

Quoting:The other low point on Synchronicity.  2.5
4.  Father of Mine--Everclear Pretty blah, as is most Everclear.  2
6.  Everywhere--Michelle Branch Michelle is an incredibly limp songwriter; I find nothing at all interesting about her music.  1.5
8.  Three Times a Lady--The Commodores The Commodores make good music.  4.5
9.  Scenes From an Italian Restaurant--Billy Joel His best.  5
10.  Absolutely (Story of a Girl)--Nine Days Easily forgotten artifact from the turn of the millenium.  1

13.  Gangsta's Paradise--Coolio  Has really not aged well at all.  3
14.  The Most Beautiful Girl in the World--Prince  Not my favorite from him  3
15.  Mr. Roboto--Styx  Remember that VW commercial that used this song?  It played the only good parts of this song.  The other five minutes are AWFUL.  2

17.  Like a Bird--Nelly Furtado Once I got what the song was about, I fell in love with it. 4
18.  Talking in Your Sleep--The Romantics  The Romantics were a power pop group, not a new wave band.  This song doesn't suit them at all.  2
19.  Sexual Healing--Marvin Gaye  Sexy.  4.5
21.  When It's Over--Sugar Ray  The line "When it's over... can I still come over?" hit me harder than many so-called "emotional" songs  4.5
22.  The Authority Song--John Mellencamp  3
23.  Hello--Lionel Richie  Lionel Richie does not make good music.  It is not he who I'm looking for.  1
24.  Bring Me To Life--Evanescence  It's going to sound ridiculous ten years from now, but for now it's the most awesome and wonderful song ever!  4.5

End Quote



Little Willy by The Sweet is excellent.  :D

Sexual healing by Marvin Gaye, Talking in your sleep by The Romantics, The most beautiful girl in the world by Prince and Gangstas Paradise by Coolio are good.  :)

Someone saved my life tonight by Elton John, Three times a lady by The Commodores, Hello by Lionel Richie and Mr Roboto by Styx are awful.  :(

The rest I'm not sure about.  ???
