Believe me, if I had connections with any of the pizza empires would I be here? It's my real name, and for four years in HS I sat behind a kid named Paul Pickles.

I stand in the minority here, but I can think of worse corporate villains than McDonald's. They donate millions to charities every year, founded homes where families can stay near their sick children in the hospital, give many young people their first jobs, and provide a decent if unoriginal meal for an OK price.…

Not a Pandora fan as they base music preferences on sound rather than personal taste. Moreover, unlike Spotify and iTunes they pay peanuts to the artists. You may or may not like Pharrell Williams' "Happy" but he deserved more than 2K for a song which dominated radio most of the first half of last year.

Joe's last Top 10 hit was written and produced by Bryan Adams, who nearly kept it for himself. Smart move Bryan, great rendition Joe of "When the Night Comes." Joe would never give you a thoughtless rendition of a song, his version of Bob Dylan's "Dignity" is worth digging up.

Loved these guys, sang tough rock songs and did it with a sense of wacky fun. "Him or Me," with its melodic verses and fierce chorus, could have set a template for Madonna. "Mr Sun Mr. Moon" started out as a jingle for a child's doll.

Accurate, especially on Train who should have stopped after the Elton John tribute "Drops of Jupiter." One thing to imitate your idols, another to cynically name drop them in every next single.

Surprised athletes have not entered this discussion. Can you imagine a world without Muhammad Ali, Henry Aaron, or Michael Jordan?

Mentioned two Beatles in the FB thread, but when Dick Van Dyke is no longer among us we will lose one of the most likable and talented men who ever appeared on TV. People will call it "the end of an era" and will be right.

But a song about cheating with such upbeat, chipper melody! Makes me wince. Incredibly enough, Peter Yarrow of Peter Paul & Mary was inspired to write "Torn Between Two Lovers" after seeing Dr. Zhivago. How could such a great film inspire such lousy music?

Almost forgot how much I hated this song then, worse now. The only reason why it does not go into the seventh circle of hell with "Torn Between Two Lovers" and Sylvia's "Nobody" is it is rarely played on radio today.
