My waffling on the greatness of Journey.

I was waffling on whether I should have asked my ex-girlfriend to return “Journey’s Greatest Hits.” I wanted it back when she told me she had it. When I finally listened to it, I wondered why I ever asked for it back. But I think I figured out that at least three of the songs are worth having. Really, the best of the bunch isn’t even a Journey song, it’s “Oh, Sherry” from after Steve Perry was kicked out and went solo. But I also have to chuckle when I hear, “Don’t Stop Believin’,” “Separate Ways,” and “Lovin’, Touchin’, and Squeezin’.”

I listen to my iPod on my walk to and from work and it’s nice to hear silly songs. So here’s the start of my silly commute list:

Song Group
Chains of Love Erasure
A Little Respect Erasure
Stop! Erasure
Drama! Erasure
Star Erasure
Chorus Erasure
Love to Hate You Erasure
Breath of Life Erasure
What Do I Know Josh Clayton-Felt
Don’t Stop Believin’ Journey
Separate Ways Journey
Lovin’, Touchin’, and Squeezin’ Journey
Love Will Tear Us Apart Joy Division
These Days Joy Division
Too Shy Kajagoogoo
Break Out Swing Out Sister

I haven’t made it very far through the alphabet, and I started with “E”. Also, Joy Division isn’t all that silly, but it’s good walking music anyway.
