3. Late for the Sky, Jackson Browne
4. Dark Side of the Moon (album that plays almost like on song), Pink Floyd

I like a lot of oldies songs, too. Simon and Garfunkel are one of my favorite all time bands, next to Metallica. Weird, eh? :)

My favorite S&G song is.. Well, hmm. Sounds of Silence, I am a rock, The Boxer, Cecelia..
