top5

What could you say about taste except “mine’s the best”. But to give you an idea about my taste I wrote down my 5 favourite songs in several genres and linked it to some examples of this music. Sometimes I didn’t find my favourite song, so I took some similar song from the artist. Sorry for dead links: The ASCAP and their underemployed attorneys take care that some of the best video and audio footage isn’t available anymore. So when I selected this all the links were fine but it is a lot of work to update hopefully I’ll soon find the time. Anyway, have fun with the links which still work!
