Challenge for you. Top ten songs for you. Just ten, don't cheat. These are
ten songs that you know by heart, will always want to hear, and have been
important to you. Here's what I came up with after a good deal of brainwork
and a conversation with Doug.

1. Miles Davis, "So What"
2. Kraftwerk, "The Robots"
3. The KLF, "What Time Is Love"
4. The Beatles, "Eleanor Rigby"
5. John Coltrane, "Acknowledgement" (from A LOVE SUPREME)
6. Underworld, "Born Slippy.nuxx"
7. Elvis, "Suspicious Minds"
8. Depeche Mode, "Just Can't Get Enough"
9. Pet Shop Boys, "Can you forgive her?"
10. Marvin Gaye, "What's Going On?"

(Note that I didn't manage to put Frank Sinatra, Sonny Rollins, Joy Division or New Order on there, to begin with. It's a hard, hard thing to do.)
