“Hey, Sam. What’s your favorite song?”
This is about as hateful a question as it is possible to ask a guy like me. I own somewhere in excess of 4,000 CDs probably and if you put a gun to my head I could make a case for at least several dozen songs that fit the bill. I could pick a number of U2 tracks, for instance (“Sunday Bloody Sunday,” maybe, especially the live version from Rattle and Hum, or “Pride”) or The Police’s “So Lonely” or “Shadows in the Rain,” which was simply chilling live. Or Queen’s “The Prophet’s Song.” Or Springsteen (“Thunder Road”) or REM (“South Central Rain”) or Johnny Clegg & Savuka (“I Call Your Name” or “The Crossing”)...
