'Carnaval de Sao Vicente' by Cesaria Evora. My favourite song in the whole world, and extremely 'summery'.

'This Charming Man' by The Smiths - sounds brand new, every time I hear it (and I play it a lot!).

Oooh child by the five stair steps for good moods

Come pick me up by Ryan Adams for when you've been dumped and want to drink all the wine

In your atmosphere by John Mayer for guitary loveliness

My current obsession is a song called Tech Noir by Gunship. Some lovely harmonies but don't be put off by the John carpenter apocalyptic intro

Little Wonders by Rob Thomas. It's from Meet the Robinsons and it's just a really listenable song.

Julie-O by Mark Summers :) cellist learnt it especially for our wedding and I dream of spawning a child that can learn it and play it to me in my twilight years. It's kind of a nostalgic/romantic/this is life kind of feeling.

French Navy by Camera Obscura
It's dreamy, wistful, gorgeous, yet strong and manages to squeeze in the line "You, with your dietry restrictions, said you love me with a lot of conviction".

Concierto D'Aranjuez by The Grimethorpe Colliery Brass Band .Guaranteed to make me cry.

All of Angel Dust by Faith No More. Mike Patton has the most versatile voice in rock.

The Prey by Dead Kennedys.

Glamour Boys by Living Colour. Corey Glover is the best rock vocalist ever. FACT

No Condition by Bad Brains.

Blackstar by David Bowie. A fantastic essay on celebrity, possibly my favourite Bowie song, despite it being his newest. And last. Sad
