Just wondering what three songs of Linda's are your favourites? I know it's hard to choose just three, but I am sure you like some more than others. As for me, they are the following: - Hurt So Bad--the song that made me (re)discover Linda and her music
- Easy For You To Say--why this didn't become a bigger hit, I'll never know why
- Someone To Lay Down Beside Me--just a lovely song overall
Ask me next time and it'll be a completely different list! ;D

Off the top of my head, "Prisoner in Disguise", "I Believe in You", and..."Down So Low"...and now I feel like a trader to those songs I didn't list.

Winter Light Long Long Time Hasten Down the Wind
(This is such a impossible question to ask as I like most of her music so much, that it's difficult to narrow it to three.)

No way to choose just 3. also depends on my mood.

No way to choose just 3. also depends on my mood. answer for today's mood. that will let us all know how you are feeling. today is a "sail away" or "baby you've been on my mind" day for me. i don't care what the critics said about "sail away" or its original meaning, I just love that song. linda changed the meaning for the better with her interpretation. hers is a catchy, happy anthem and would convince me to get on that ship.

I guess if it came down to three, it would be the following:
1. YOU'RE NO GOOD 2. BLUE BAYOU 3. POOR, POOR, PITIFUL ME

For initial post, I don't remember if it was from a recent Karla Bonoff concert I attended or perhaps in a recent interview at Whine at 9 (http://www.whineat9.com/podcast/Episode%20109%20-%20Musical%20Chairs.mp3), but the song Someone to Lay Down Beside Me is about a prostitute.

^^^ Clever! OK, fine then! I should've included: She's A Very Lovely WomanMaybe I should of made it a top 10, but that would've been tough too.

A very difficult choice of course, but I'll try these.
I Can Almost See It (a popular choice it seems and rightly so) It's About Time Tracks Of My Tears
the following are all big favourites of mine and were also considered for a top three place.
Back In The U.S.A. The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress Faithless Love Many Rivers To Cross Look Out For My Love Heart Like A Wheel Rock Me On The Water You're No Good He Darked the Sun ( from the Linda Ronstadt & Heart Like A Wheel Raven CD) Oh No, Not My Baby

Tough to narrow it to only three, and like several of you, it changes.

Always a tough question. She has performed in so many different genres that picking just three is really difficult. But today, I would list the following. But I'll cheat a bit and list alternates, too!
When I Fall in Love (alternate: Skylark) Poor Wandering One (alternate: Sorry Her Lot) When Will I Be Loved (alternate: In My Reply)

Hi Can someone explain to me why the words "Party girl?" appear below my username? I never put it there - and I can't seem to get rid of it.
Anyone?
Thanks - M

My understanding is it changes when you make X number of posts or if you lifted your party dress once too often. (shame on you Mark)

Ha - I figured it must have been something like that. As for the party dress ... well, not that there's anything wrong with that ... ;-)
