Re: Top 10
I've heard a lot of songs, too, but there are certain ones that grabbed me and never let go. Ten of the best, not exactly in order:

Slint - Good Morning, Captain
The Waterboys - Fisherman's Blues
7% Solution - The Road and the Common
They Might Be Giants - Ana Ng
Suede - New Generation
The Smiths - This Charming Man (Peel Session)
The Cure - Fascination Street
Pavement - Grounded
Nas - NY State of Mind
The Chameleons - Second Skin (Peel Session)

This might seem unfair, but I left off Underworld just because none of you should need to be told that I love Underworld or that their songs are great. I guess if I was being objective I would have thrown Push upstairs on there in place of something else, but I'm not, so live with it! This is a pretty loose list anyway. How could it not be?

Re: Top 10
Props to Scott for mentioning Let Down by Radiohead. Even though I don't even consider Radiohead one of my favorite bands anymore I have always said that Let Down is my favorite song by them and I don't normally see other people agreeing with me

New Order is one of the best groups ever with Kraftwerk and co.
No questions about that...
