S D F Top 40 Countdown for Casey

[edafan]

18 So far I have picked songs because they were among my favorites, but this time trying to fit the spirit of the thread, how about "Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me" by Gladys Knight and the Pips?

Just to let you know,
These were the last words my late great wife, an English teacher, said to me before she passed away on April 16, 2012

Let's keep it there....
#17..."Neither one of us" by Gladys Knight and the Pips

Although this is just in fun, wouldn't that song sort of go against the grain of the rest of them? The OP said that we should pick songs that are positive in their message and exhibit happiness or excitement. This one, although one of Glady's all-time greats, is definitely a sad song of regret.

david you may be correct, but that song has so much soul and so much meaning I am going to allow it be in here.

When I hear that song it reminds me of the last few minutes with my late great wife.
Neither one of us wants to be the first to say goodbye. We didn't say goodbye. When she could only hear, and not speak, I said to my son,"Go save those lives of those children with your work at Genzyme", and we were each holding her hand, and she nodded in agreement, and she passed away.
