5. I can't decide between that
And "Woman". Both came out at a special time in my life, and I love the emotional memories they create.

As for "Imagine": Imagine a world where Lennon survived. How different would that be?

6. "Love" . . .
Love is feeling, feeling love,
Love is wanting to be loved.
Love is touch, touch is love,
Love is reaching, reaching love,
Love is asking to be loved.
Love is you,
You and me,
Love is knowing,
We can be.
Love is free, free is love,
Love is living, living love,
Love is needing to be loved.

10. How
It was between How and Jealous Guy. Both are incredibly beautiful songs but I have to give How the edge.

25. Love that song...
Lyrics and music are very ethereal and dreamlike. Kinda like a 'sonic meditation' for me when I hear it...
