Lol. This is such an insanely difficult question. I posted my response earlier, but just noticed that I left The Police off my list. Oy. I'm old school, and keep thousands of tunes stored on my phone. Been in waaaay too many locations with little or no wireless coverage, so I keep my stuff on my SD card.

 

I have 39 Police tracks in my phone, behind only The Beatles (110), Rush (60), and Pink Floyd (41). I have dozens of artists with 10+ tracks, including The Eagles, ZZ Top, XTC, Styx, Aerosmith, Blue Oyster Cult, Cheap Trick, Chicago, Hall and Oates, Devo, Dire Straits, Tom Petty, ELO, Elvis Costello, Eurythmics, Fleetwood Mac, Green Day, Stones, John Mayer, Michael Jackson, Paul Simon, Peter Gabriel, Prince, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Sheryl Crow, Steely Dan, Stevie Wonder, Talking Heads, Alan Parsons Project, The Cars, The Cure for The Doobie Brothers, The Doors, The Pretenders, U2, Van Halen, and Yes.

 

Then there's the best hits of Motown, and hundreds of one hit wonders. Sheesh.

Love it!  And good to see another Cheap Trick fan!

 

I walk a lot in the late afternoons over the winter months and have really enjoyed these albums while doing so:

Delicate Sound of Thunder - PF

Clockwork Angels - Rush

Live Over Europe, 2007 - Genesis

Toys In The Attic - Aerosmith

Dream Police - CT

Live In Gdansk - David Gilmour

Damn The Torpedoes - TP

Captured - Journey

 

I used to think I had a LOT of songs in my Spotify at 1,171... but soon realized it was a drop in the bucket to some folks.

 

Yes, I know I'm WAAAAY off topic.  Flog me.
