Ooooh, this is a great thread. So much joy packed away in here.

Of those mentioned already, I love Echoes and Five Years. Just adore them.

But for me, and this is a purely personal thing, it has to be this. Been lucky enough to see it live three times, the last two with my daughter, who was only two years old when it was released and used to have to put up with me playing it far too loud in the car while I drove her round the streets of Delhi. Each time I’ve seen it, I’ve been on the spectrum between light weep and sobbing.

Already got my ticket to see it a fourth time at Sheffield at Tramlines this year.

Earmarked as my funeral song, which isn’t morbid at all. It’s perfectly thought out. It’s never played on the radio EVER. You have to seek it out, which means it will never sneak up on unsuspecting souls and upset them after I’m gone.

Always had Like A Friend down as my favourite Pulp song. Saw them live in Finsbury Park in 2023, and it was special all the song, it like Cocker has you in the palm of his hand, a cathartic live experience.

Totally. I was there that night too. Euphoric is absolutely the right word for that evening.

From a great artist close to the end of her life, one of the most heart rending performances ever.

Well, today it’s Bob Dylan’s version of “ Some Enchanted Evening “

I’m 75 plus, mind.

And a big shout out for the aforementioned “Vincent”, a great song, song writer, and singer.

Best song, or favourite song? There’s a huge difference there.

BEST



An absolute odyssey of a song. It’s what people think Bohemian Rhapsody is. A mental 9-minute genre bending work of art.

First listen is just this weird R&B/Pink Floydish/ambient thing. And then you read in to what the lyrics mean and realise it’s a song with quite deep meaning lyrically too. A masterpiece.

FAVOURITE



The perfect ending to; imo, the best album ever released.
