And there was me thinking it was the very long title of a swedish song by a Swedish band called " en prestation"I see now that i was so into the process of selecting songs that i wrote the last sentences in swedish. Silly me. SO IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THATS NORMAL.

Scorpions - Time. Great shower song.
If I'm taking a loooong shower, it could be Gordon Lightfoot's Canadian Railroad Trilogy, or Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, but I wouldn't call them favorite songs. Favorite shower songs, sure. Although there's one passage in Edmund that gets me every time.

I didn't realise that Tracey Ullman sang! (She is a very funny lady.)
I was totally down on her a period when i was 18 or so. This song is from that period. Another good one is My guy. Did yo see her playing Ofelia in an adaption of the play?
No, I haven't seen that. (Just listened to that song... she was so young then!)
We all were. I had just started university and everything was fun.
I forgot Allman Brothers "Jessica." It's a completely joyous piece of music that is easily within my Top Ten of all time.
The same group's "Whipping Post" is a great shower song too. Just ask my family. They might not say "great," though.

I am just having funnies thinking of Grandpa singing in the shower!
Tom Petty - Free Fallin was a dance that my niece and I did, and I must sing that one loud and badly.

No way I could ever make a list. I love music too much to pick just a few. I do enjoy reading other folks lists. Love many that have already been mentioned.
