06 July, 2021 - 0 Comments

During an interview, The Beatles’ Ringo Starr once gave fans a list of his favorite songs. He said it was hard to narrow his favorite tracks to just a few. Interestingly, he pointed to one of Elvis Presley’s early songs as one of his favorites. Here’s why he enjoyed the song so much.

“I love music,” Ringo told ABC News in 2009. “You know, people say, ‘Your top 10.’ I don’t have a top 10, I have a top thousand or 2,000. Music has meant a lot, you know.” Ringo settled to list the songs that sounded best to him at that point.

He chose a handful of classic tracks by artists who became famous in the 1950s and 1960s and one song by a contemporary artist. He pointed to Little Richard’s “Good Golly Miss Molly,” Bob Dylan’s “When the Deal Goes Down,” and The Beatles’ “Rain” as favorites, while praising Taylor Swift’s “You Belong With Me.” He also praised the Black Eyed Peas without saying which of their songs he enjoyed. Ringo mentioned an Elvis song as well: “Don’t Be Cruel.”
