Default 5 fave songs of all time?

Hello all,

I am puting together a CD of all my favourite songs. Finding it hard now as i have racked my brains.

What's all your favourite songs of all time, maybe jog my memory to which ones i like but can't remember...

I'll start it off:

Pink Floyd - On The Turning Away
Jennifer Rush - The Power Of Love
Rockstar Soundtrack - We All Die Young
Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody
Kenny Rogers- The Gambler

Kenny Rogers

My top 5 would probably be:

No 1 - Unfinished Sympathy by Massive Attack
No 2 - Porcelain by Moby
No 3 - Play To The Music by Organic Audio
No 4 - October by Pet Shop Boys
No 5 - 6 Underground by the Sneaker Pimps

Making me smile just thinking about them

Loaded is a class song. As is Come Together. If Screamadelica consisted of just those two tracks, i'd still buy it..!!

No order of preference, but:

Louis Armstrong - What A Wonderful World (to be one of my funeral songs)
Avril Lavigne - Complicated (Dedicated to an ex)

Still thinking about the other 2....

The River - Springsteen
The Message - Grandmaster Flash
No Woman No Cry - either the Marley or The Fugees would be fine
Johnny Was - Stiff Little Fingers (the Hanx version)
Down In The Park - Foo Fighters
Hate To Say I Told You So - The Hives
The Man Comes Around - Johnny Cash
Crystal - New Order
Another Girl, Another Planet - The Only Ones
Smells Like Teen Spirit - Kelis (yes, really!)
Dock Of The Bay - Otis Redding
Under Pressure - Queen & David Bowie
American Girl - Tom Petty
Solsbury Hill - Peter Gabriel
Leave - REM
Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love - Van Halen
First We Take Manhattan - Leonard Cohen

Albatross by Fleetwood Mac???? What??? I reckon Eagle by Abba is better than that..!!

Unfinished Sympathy seems to get a lot of mentions - never quite understood that one. And nothing yet by Stone Roses - shurely shome mishtake??
