Man, where to begin?

A friend of mine, who knows plenty about music, but mostly from a sheet music perspective, has been on my case for a while now about making a definitive KPH mix (and y'all know how bad I am about making mixes). Like list "every favorite song"...

So, I'm going A-Z, leaving out some stuff, and trying to keep this to 2 (CD) discs.

I'm actually close to finish, but I wanted to see what I'm forgetting and put this to y'all.

If you're down, list your favorite song from your favorite artists...
