					<description><![CDATA[Interesting topic!   Quick picks off the top of my head -


MELODY:

&quot;Fare Thee Well Love&quot;  (Rankin Family)   Moves me to tears, even though
I don&#039;t know the words.

&quot;Ode To Joy&quot;  Again, don&#039;t know the words, but become unbelievably 
energized when I hear it.

&quot;Sing To Jesus&quot;  (Fernando Ortega)

Almost anything by Beach Boys, or Dianna Ross &#038; The Supremes, or 
Jerry Lee Lewis simply because of upbeat tempo. 


STRONG BEAT:
(Again, don&#039;t know the words, but can&#039;t sit still when these play):

&quot;Wild, Wild West&quot;
&quot;Strokin&#039;&quot;
&quot;Mustang Sally&quot;
&quot;Addicted To Love&quot;




LYRICS:

&quot;Jesus Take The Wheel&quot;  (Carrie Underwood)
&quot;When I Look To The Sky&quot;  (Train)
&quot;Against The Wind&quot; (Bob Seger)
&quot;Already There&quot;  (Lonestar)
&quot;Holy Water&quot; (Brooks and Dunn)  Actually don&#039;t enjoy their voices!

Travis Tritt, Garth Brooks, &#038; Reba McIntyre are exceptional when it comes to story-telling/lyrics.



MUSIC SELECTED FOR BEST VOICE:

Sarah McLaughlin
Roy Orbison
Everly Brothers
Vince Gill
Celine Dion


ODDBALL  (Weak lyrics, melody and voice, but I love this song anyway!)

&quot;Angelina&quot;  Billy Bob Thorton


Life changing?  Not so far...but it certainly is a medium that brings much
pleasure!]]></description>
