Have any of you seen the film High Fidelity - it is full of John Cusack making lists of top 5 this and top 10 that.

Funny film. Worth watching IMO.

AWD, will keep an eye out for it, however, it doesn't alter the fact you did not add a list

Mine would have to be :

Hendrix - All Along the watchtower
Chili Peppers - Soul 2 Squeeze
Eagles - Hotel California
Hendrix - Crosstown Traffic
Chili Peppers - Me & My friends
Janes Addiction - 3 Days
Free - Alright now
Joan Jett - I Love rock'n'roll
Aerosmith - Dont wanna miss a thing
Guns 'n' roses - Sweet Child 'o mine

Sorry if its a bit Rawkified, i would have had more chili songs - but I think if they were all in the top 10 it would be boring

Allan,

When you say the sisters played hardly anything decent, does this mean you saw them at a gig??? If so are they on a tour?

In no particular order.....

1. The Whole of the Moon - Waterboys.
2. My Life - Billy Joel.
3. Dignity - Deacon Blue.
4. Crocodile Rock - Elton John.
5. *Born to Lose (see below)
6. The One - Elton John.
7. Bring Him Home - Soundtrack from Les Miserables
8. Summer Sun - Texas.
9. Strange Town - The Jam.
10. Disco 2000 - Pulp.

* I'm not 100% sure that this is the actual name. However, the song is essentially the same as a piece of music (Aria sp?) originally released by, wait for it, Aker Bilk. A virtual pint in it for anyone who can name the vocalist.
