Got all my CDs ripped onto a Nas and I now stream it all to a Linn DS - a million times better that farting around with thousands of CDs (and it sounds better)

Top 5 will change daily

Whole Wide World - Wreckless Eric
I See a Darkness - Bonnie Prince Billy
Heros - David Bowie
Final Day - Young Marble Giants
Lean Woman Blues - T Rex

Oh my God I've only heard of David Bowie and T Rex in that line up. If this was Logan's Run world I'd be fooked!

According to itunes my top 5 is;

1 Lady Eleanor - Lindisfarne
2 Emma - Hot Chocolate
3 Gloria - Patti Smith
4 May I? - Kevin Ayers and the Whole World
5 The Ghosts of Cable Street - The men they couldn't hang.

He became a Monk in some weird religion - literally 'dropped out' as it were. Seem to remember a minor comeback some years ago - not sure. Boy was he good though - three brilliant albums and off to oblivion............

Wow, I could never list my top 5 songs. There are so many good ones, and depending on how I am feeling and the occasion my choices would change and I still wouldn'r be able to narrow it down to 5 songs.

Loretta Damage

1. I am the Resurrection - Stone Roses
2. Waterloo Sunset - The Kinks
3. Tin Soldier - The Small Faces
4. Michael Caine - Madness
5. All these things that I have done - The Killers

This will probably change as soon as I fire up my iPod tomorrow!

southdownswolf

1. The Cure - Prayers for Rain
2. NIN - Head Like A Hole
3. Pixies - Where Is My Mind?
4. Alicia Keys - Empire State Of Mind
5. NIN - Dead Souls (cover)

Of course this will change as soon as I remember 100 other songs that I love as much as these.
