“F” Part 2 of 3

Firehouse - “When I Look Into Your Eyes” from Hold Your Fire and “Love of a Lifetime” from Power Ballads Gold.

Fisher - “I Will Love You” from True North. I thought this was Sarah McLachlan. A friend made me a Sarah McLachlan mix CD and this was on it. When I imported the songs into iTunes, I couldn’t find which McLachlan album it came from. After much searching, I discovered little-known Fisher.

Five for Fighting - Almost the complete American Town album and the following tracks from Message for Albert: “Happy”, “10 Miles for Nowhere”, “Ocean” and “The Garden”.

Five Iron Frenzy - The Christian ska punk band from Denver that ended their existence just as I was getting hooked; go figure. “Kamikaze” and “Rhubarb Pie” from Cheeses... (of Nazareth) album, the complete All the Hype that Money Can Buy album, entire The End is Near album, most tracks from Five Iron Frenzy 2: Electric Boogaloo, “Mama Mia” from Miniature Golf Courses of America, “A Flowery Song” from Propska One and “Second Season” and “Litmus” from Our Newest Album Ever!.

Fixx - “One Thing Leads to Another” from Now That's What I Call The 80s.

Fleetwood Mac - In my Top 20. I have the following complete albums: The Dance, self-titled, Greatest Hits, and Rumors [2 Disc edition]. The interpersonal turmoil these musicians went through while still managing to stay together as a band is amazing. Stevie Nicks, Mick Fleetwood, Lyndsey Bunkingham, and Chrisie and John McVie are all staggering.

Flight 180 - “Sunday Jack” from Cheapskates: Softer Side. This is arguably the best track on this compilation. A contemporary swing track that is so fun!

Flipsyde - "Someday" from We the People. This was the themefor NBC's coverage of the 2006 Winter Olympic Games.

Flo-Rida - “Elevator” and “Low” from Mail on Sunday. It is kind of funny that Flo-Rida is spelled the same way as Florida. How original, or is it?

Flobots - Entire Fight with Tools album. “I can ride my bike with no handlebars, no handlebars, no handlebars”. How cheesy, but it is very catchy. The whole album is unprecedented, there is nothing out there like it.

Flogging Molly - Complete Drunken Lullabies album. Modern Irish drinking songs from a modern Irish punk rock band. I could dance and drink to the Flogging Mollies night after night.

Flyleaf - “All Around Me” from their self-titled album. An mellifluous tune.

FM Static - “Something to Believe In” from What Are You Waiting For? Christian punk rock.

Foghat - “Slow Ride” I have the 8 minute version and 4 minute version both are on separate albums; Foghat Live and Fool for the City, respectively.

Fono - Complete Goesaroundcomesaround album. An older Christian rock band. This record was released in 1999, but sounds more like it could have come from 1989.

Foo Fighters - Entire albums: The Colour and the Shape, self-titled, One by One, and There Is Nothing Left To Lose. “Long Road to Ruin” and “The Pretender” from Echoes, Silence, Patience and Grace, and “Best of You” from In Your Honor. Another Top 20? Possibly. Yes, I am keeping track of who is on my Top 20.

Foolish Things - “Even Now” from the album of the same name and the complete Let’s Not Forget the Story.

for the Holiday - “Colours”. A now defunct hard rock band. Two of the members now play for Meese.

Foreigner - “Cold As Ice” from Classic Rock Gold, “I Want To Know What Love Is” from Power Ballads Gold, and “Waiting For a Girl Like You” from ‘80s Gold. A classic ‘70s and ‘80s band.

Forever the Sickest Kids - “Hey Brittany!” and “Whoa Oh! (Me Vs. Everyone)” from Underdog Alma Mater. Sounds just like Fall Out Boy or Simple Plan. These two songs are note-worthy songs that you’ll be singing along with whenever you hear them.

Fort Minor - The hip-hop side-project of Mike Shinoda, the vocalist, guitarist, and songwriter of the alternative rock band Linkin Park. "Where'd You Go" and "Remember the Name" from The Rising Tied. Again, great songs to crank in your car and sing along.

Fountains of Wayne - “Stacy’s Mom” from Welcome Interstate Managers. A popular hit back in 2003.

Frank Mills - “Music Box Dancer”, the title track and also a one-hit wonder; a very popular one, though.
