I was driving yesterday and "Gotcha" played on my MS ZUNE. Man...i remember playing that song over and over and over. That reminded me that i got "hooked" with other songs as well:

Pygmy Funk
Paula/Paw Prints
Incognito
Conversations
De La Luz
Del Corazón
Sweet and Savy
Last Exit
Old San Juan
What Exit
Serpent in Paradise
Film Noir
Big Dance Number A.K.A Star Wars Song!!
Joburg Jam!! Man....i really burned that one!!
A Winter Tale....It's #1 in my rotation
Get Busy
Easy Street.....Talk about a piano solo!!
South American Sojurn (RS Version)

The thing is that i'm still hooked with them to this day....those are the songs that i play the most from the band..and now i have a new one for the list....."Rockaway To Sunset"

Well..i would like to see your list guys!!!

Eril - I share many on your list -- as to the above comment -- I think that on the latest release -- "The Left Bank" is another Star Wars Number - it brings me right back to the bar scene from the first movie ( perhaps some of Jay's distant relatives ?? )

I would also add:

Funky Tina !!! (Yes 3 !)
Heliopolis

Freetime
Pacific Sunrise
Old San Juan
Oasis
Incognito
City Kids
Serpent in Paradise

Bright Lights
Para Ti Latino
Breathless
Jennifer's Lullaby
Whitewater
Inside Your Love
Walk the Walk
Patterns in the Rain
Breakfast at Igor's
South Beach
Birks Law
Same Difference
(odd that Dreams Beyond Control got a greater share than any other studio album, but yeah, I find myself wanting to play those over and over whenever that disc gets in the player)
Third Street
Group Therapy
On Liberty Road (For South Africa)
De La Luz
Westwood Moon
Midnight
Valentino's
Believe
When Evening Falls
The Unwritten Letter

Capetown Love
Funky Tina

Okay, that's it for now. Wrapped in a Dream and Good to Go-Go are still pretty new, so the songs from those albums haven't hooked me just yet. Well, Funkyard Dog has, but otherwise, these two are handicapped by the fact that I have so much other music (new and old), so they didn't get as many spins when I first got them as the older albums.

My Son was listening to this song (he's a spyro freak as well an also he plays clarinet) and he rushed back to hus dvd collection and played "Star Wars". He then told me "Dad...they sound very alike...maybe Jay was watching the movie" hehehe...and ohhh..i forgot to include on the list "Captain Karma"....i really annoyed everybody with that song!!

Ahh, the Cantina Band connection. Tell your son John Williams was a jazz musician before he started doing film scores.

Just played some tracks from Good to Go-Go. The Left Bank is one of the coolest songs. It's one of those "can't get out of my head" songs.
