[moorlad]

After the geet U2 debite the other day I got to wondering about what youse ****s actually listen to. So I'd like to set youse an challenge to come up with ten (10) songs all from different artists what are your favourites.

1. Emergency - 999
2. Chelsea Girl - Simple Minds
3. Faster *****cat - The Cramps
4. Gates of the West - The Clash
5. New Rose - The Damned
6. Identity - X-Ray Spex
7. Sally Maclanan - The Pogues
8. Empire State Human - The (original) Human League
9. Out of Control - U2
10. Walk on By - Stranglers

I could of done more, for example Elvis Costello isert in there, and I of just been listening to loads off of his ace early stuff. I wanted to fit Ghosts of Princes in Towers (Rich Kids) in as well, but only 10 are allowed.

Faster *****cat were 1983 (from Smell of Female, after they sorted their label dispute).

I was only listening to Sally Maclannan yesterday and its a great song,the song that follows was their version of Dirty Old Town and thats better than the original...

Shanes solo album The Snake is well worth a listen with Her Father Didnt Like Me Anyway and That Womans Got Me Drinking being standout tracks...
