7. Ostinato Repetuum (by the Danish band Afenginn)
8 Dirait-on (for SATB choir, by Morten Laurisen)
9. Soaring Like an Eagle (3-part choir, by Linda Steen Spavacek)

2. To Make You Feel My Love (Garth Brooks)

11. Sonantina No. 1 in C Major, Op. 36, Movment 1 (Clementi)
12. All of Carmina Burana (SATB choir & orchestra, by Carl Orff)
13. TONS of Scott Joplin songs, including Leola, Searchlight Rag, Glaudiolous Rag and Magnetic Rag

A few things to note:
I am an ATHEIST. There are lots of Christian/God songs, yes, but I care about the sound of the music, not the actual words.
So yeah. Just by looking at the songs listed, would you think my tastes are weird? This is the **** I listen to regularly...in the car, when working out & when working on the computer. When I'm alone in the car I play them and sing them; and I also sing them in the choir.
Be honest now!!
