Entre_Perpetuo Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Inspired by the 10 rock albums everyone should own list, but I think this is a far more interesting question. These aren’t necessarily your ten favorite songs, nor the only ten songs that people should know. Just make a list of ten songs that would benefit anyone trying to get to know you better. Maybe they’re related to important facets of your personality, your history, or your beliefs. Maybe you just make jokes and references to them a lot. Could be any reason. Go! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
