This is a simple bluesy, folk tune sung a cappella. Sonia Dada is aChicago
8. Van Morrison Someone Like You
TJ first heard this song at a wedding a couple of years ago and knew he had to own it. He didn't get around to purchasing it until 2010. This song touches him both musically and lyrically and can be summed up in one word “Love.”
7. Sade Kiss Of Life
The girl is back. Sexy, sultry, smooth and as sensual as ever.
6. Paul Simon She Moves On

This is a song that touched TJ's heart both lyrically and musically. It needs no further explanation.
3. Bob Marley Redemption Song
TJ has enjoyed Reggae music since visiting the Caribbean on our honeymoon. Listen to the Caribbean influence...
2. Steve Earle Colorado Girl
How folksy can you get. He was surprised a folk song made it this high on his list, since he is normally a rock or alternative guy.
1. Alejandro Escovedo Anchor
This song has a Texas rockabilly sound that is heavy into guitar. The background vocals are strong and effective. This song was his anchor for the year; it really pulled him in because he's always loved his love.
I hope you've enjoyed TJ's list as much as I did. I have already given him another assignment: come up with a list of his ten most influential women in music. Due date the end of winter. Watch for it.
