Quick - name two favourite songs! Don't think too hard, just pick TWO (2 - two - ii) songs. No more, no less. You won't be held to it, you can pretend you were ill when you picked, if you like.

AND THEY CAN'T BE BY THE FALL. (Sorry to shout but this is a crucial point)

Mine -- today -- would be:

Moon Over Marin by Dead Kennedys
&
The 15th by Wire

YOUR TURN! DO IT! QUICKLY! Don't think!

John Finn's Wife - Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds

Tam Lin - Fairport Convention



no wait.....

The Sentinel - Judas Priest
Fear Loves This Place - Julian Cope


no wait...

I could never get tired of any of these songs, which is the criteria I tried to use.

You Trip Me Up by the Mary Chain, which I played quite loudly this morning, cause I needed to knock dust off the walls.

Fantastic Voyage by The Mekons, cause I finally found So Good It Hurts this last week, bought that and Levitate.

"you Shook Me All Night Long" ac/dc

"A Pair of Brown Eyes" The Pogues

On edit: "Moon Over Marin" is way up there for me as well.

"Walking About" by Venom P. Stinger

"Enemy" by Drunks With Guns

I can't do it — some song appears in my head and I think "that's not my favorite, I don't even know who did it or what it's called" and then I ask myself what my favorite is, and so I've thought about it. No good. :wacko:
