Best Song Ever - Add your top 15 songs now!
Hi all,
I just wanted to see if it was possible if we could establish a best song ever on DS! To start with I was going to ask everyone to add their: Favourite Top 15 Songs Ever to this thread. Everyone has until next Saturday the 14th of February to add their Top 15 to the thread (I will be on hols for the week so keep bumping please!) And after everyone has added I will do up a list of the most popular 15 - I think it would be interesting to see! |

I don't want to do it because I'll only get annoyed when the top 15 features Run by Leona Lewis and The Promise by Girls Aloud

This is going to be a nigh-on impossible list to compile. You're going to have hundreds of songs to sift through. For what it's worth I'll have a stab at it:
Radiohead - Street Spirit Sisters of Mercy - Body Electric The Cure - Charlotte Sometimes Joy Division - Day of the Lords The Smiths - How Soon Is Now? Manic Street Preachers - Of Walking Abortion Cocteau Twins - Pearly Dewdrops Drops David Bowie - Wild Is the Wind Ultravox! - I Want To Be a Machine My Bloody Valentine - You Made Me Realise The Pixies - Where Is My Mind? Catherine Wheel - Flower To Hide The Jesus and Mary Chain - Upside Down Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark - Of All the Things We've Made Pink Floyd - Echoes I'll probably think of another 15 tomorrow and another 15 after that...I probably have over 200 absolute favourites, but that's enough to be going on with for now
