Your favourite 3 (or more) songs of all time

[Perry Milkins]

I could list out plenty of Eagles Tracks that I really rate, but i was trying to limit myself.

i also missed out Focus, Thin Lizzy, Eva Cassidy, and of course stacks of Mozart , faure, bach etc.

If someone pushed me to find out my song that would be last played at my funeral, it would be La Crimosa, Mozart's Requiem. Possibly the most sublime piece of music ever written

Where can I find Wombling Merry Christmas by Rihanna?

 

[Durlston]

Borderline - Madonna. Reminds me of my childhood in the eighties. Whenever I hear it a lot of happy and sad memories come back.

Where Is The Love? - Black Eyed Peas. Powerful lyrics about wanting peace in the world.

Blinded By The Lights - The Streets. A night out that goes wrong. Plenty of naughty words in it.

No Idea...I just thought it would make an alternative version with her voice and mike batt's harmonies

ahah. On the same complation album as Middle of the Road covering 'Paranoid' then??

 

[Pevenseagull]

Tricky, because they change every so often, but right now (in no particular order) it's:

1. Gold Soundz - Pavement (a lovely, lovely song - classic Pavement acher)
2. You Never Should - My Bloody Valentine (when the extra guitar comes in halfway through, I feel like I've left the ground)
3. Plainsong - The Cure (instant classic. I love The Cure)
4. Do You Know How To Waltz? - Low (from silence to wall of sound in 14 minutes. Shocking coming from a band who had barely risen above a whisper on two previous albums)
5. There Is A Light That Never Goes Out - The Smiths (the theme tune of many a drunken evening)

you appear to have my record collection
