Mine, for those interested, are in no particular as follows...

Here are some of my favs:

Somebody to Love - Queen
Becuase - The Beatles
Nightswimming - REM
Angels - Robbie Williams
Street Spirit - Radiohead
Freedom - George Michael
Let Me Live - Queen

Seriously, those are good enough choices. I don't care for U2 except for much of "The Joshua Tree," from which my two favorites are "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" and the hypnotic "Mothers Of the Disappeared."

Roomie has introduced me to an eclectic range of (mainly) punk recordings; "Bad Penny" (Big Black), "Turn Around," "Mammal," "Spider" (They Might Be Giants) and "What Are You Going To Do With Your Life?" (Echo & The Bunnymen) particularly stand out.

I confess to a not-so-guilty fondness for ABBA. "Waterloo," "Knowing Me, Knowing You," "Chiquitita," "SOS," "The Way All Friends Do," and so on.

My favorite Beatles song will always be "Penny Lane."

NP: purely by coincidence, "As The Piper Dreams" (music by Jerry Goldsmith, lyrics and performance by Carol "Mrs. Goldsmith" Heather, as heard on THE OMEN COMPLETE! thanks again Brad!)
