Oh dear, stuck in a time warp I am .. (and talking like Yoda)

Oooh this is hard.

Probably

No Angel - Dido
Jamiroquai, any of his, so best of
Frank - Amy W

Other 2 I'll have to think about.

You're not allowed best of's! Or compliations for that matter. NBG I do like the fact that you went for Frank rather than Back in Black - are you a teensy bit smug like me that you were into Amy W before the rest of the world was?

It'll have to be the self-titled stone roses then.

Ooh yes I am smug

I do like Back to Black but there are more songs on Frank that I like.

2 more

James Morisson's debut album but the name escapes me and Kaiser Chiefs latest, Yours Truly Angry Mob.

Oh! We DO have a music topic! Sorry, I'm a bit slow...

Off the top of my head:

Portishead: Dummy
Sinead O'Connor: The Lion and the Cobra
The Pogues: Rum, Sodomy and the Lash
Morcheeba: ... what is it called?
Lee Morgan: Cornbread

What a random list!

I really wanted to put the soundtrack to West Side Story, but I think I would be thrown out of the topic!

1. Gold Mother - James
2. Design For Life - Manics
3. Stevie Wonder album with Superstitious' on it, can't remember name. Colourbox?
4. Definitely Maybe - Oasis
5. The Black Parade -MCR

At least it's eclectic, lol!

MrsJamin, are you Nick Hornby, lol?

Randomly thinking of most played:

Stone Roses/Stone Roses

Funeral/Arcade Fire

Nick Drake/Five Leaves Left

Joni Mitchell/Ladies of the Canyon

Neil Young/After the Gold Rush

No I'm not Nick Hornby but I do wonder about '5 best covers', '5 best soundtracks', '5 best pop songs' etc, I could probably start a million music threads! But I won't.
NBG you lost me on Kaiser Chiefs, I can't stand them. MrsBabookaloo - If we did best musical I think I'd include West Side Story too . Sorry nickytwotimes "design for life" is a song - Everything Must Go is the album and that would get into my top ten

Oops!

The Beatles - Revolver
Prefab Sprout - Steve McQueen
Go Betweens - 16 Lovers Lane
Orange Juice - You Can't Hide Your Love Forever
Aztec Camera - High Land Hard Rain

Bubbling under:

Scott Walker - Scott II
Nick Drake - Bryter Layter
Pale Fountains - Pacific Street
Roddy Frame - Surf
Echo and The Bunnymen - Ocean Rain.

If anyone who knows me in RL is reading this I've almost certainly outed myself

A Prefab Sprout one would be there for me - but there were 2 good ones weren't there? Steve McQueen and ooo what was t'other?

Swoon and Jordan:The Comeback were both great in differing ways. Protest Songs was none too shabby either.

Swoon. I think I'd go for Swoon.

i keep trying to write a list, but it is way too hard...

My all time favourite album is Violator by Depeche Mode - not very trendy to like, I know, but it was the sound track to my first year at uni...

beyond that there are just too many!!

Thanks for reminding me about Stone Roses and Nick Drake. Will put on list to go on ipod!

Bryan Ferry - The Bride Stripped Bare
Simon and Garfunkel - Bridge over Troubled Water
Prince - Purple Rain
George Michael - Faith
David Bowie - HunkyDory

But there's at least another ten all time favourites, those are just the first springing to mind.

By the Way - RCHP
Black Album - Metallica
The Holy Bible - Manics
Appetite for Destruction - G'n'R
Countdown to Extinction - Megadeth

Not in any order!
