your 100 favourite songs

[naughty boy]

I know!

No, but it does change over time, doesn't it? There are around eight more which shouldn't be there, I think. But it's hard work thinking of what should go in their place.

[Fonz]

There's a small handful I would change, but that's natural. These things should evolve. An interesting exercise like he to do a new list in a couple of years. BUT WITH NO REFERENCE TO THE EXISTING LIST. there would still be a lot of concordance, but the debate about 'which tracks to remove' would be moot.

[Jumper K]

Another fuckin thread of endless lists of shite. At least the now playing thread is brief...

Still waiting...

Nice song but not in the top 100

[Ranking Ted]

Utter foolishness, no good can come from this.

I'll try to get my list up this weekend.

What a fraud.

[naughty boy]

I need to make room for a Sparks song!

BUT WHAT SHOULD GO?

[The Red Heifer]

Party Fears Two!

[naughty boy]

NEVER!

[fange]

I need to make room for a Sparks song!

BUT WHAT SHOULD GO?

Mayo Thompson out, Sparks in!

[naughty boy]

I couldn't possibly! I LOVE that Mayo song!

[Goat Boy]

Ach I can't be bothered

[naughty boy]

Shame.

[naughty boy]

and now I need to add '(Hey You) The Rock Steady Crew' but can't decide what to take out...

[fange]

Easy! The Rock Steady Crew, hold the Mayo!

[Loki]

[naughty boy]

NO FUCKIN WAY

[clive gash]
