I P Knightley Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I have a few, Paul Weller - You do something to me Pavarotti - Nessun dorma Kinks - Waterloo Sunset Stone Roses - Waterfalls The Connells - 74 75 In my '60s top 3 and probably all time top 10. I was speaking recently with Mick Avory (Kinks drummer) who says they are going back in the studio and should be touring later in the year. Anyway, my all-time best song is a straight duel between The Who - 5:15 and Bruce Springsteen - Badlands.

Malcolm Tucker Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I have so many, but these ones stand out above the rest I'd say.

I P Knightley Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 ok here goes again http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=OiHv_VZFJR8 Brilliant song - nearly made it into my top 3 on a recent lads' music night out. Saw it performed live about 3 years ago by Casbah Club, a band with Bruce Foxton, Bruce Watson (Big Country), Mark Brzezicki (Big Country) and Simon Townshend (Pete's brother). Foxton took the lead vocals for this and a couple of other Jam songs and it was fantastic - sounded a lot better than that youtube clip but I recognise that the sound on youtube's never that great and when I saw the band, I'd had a few pints of definitely un-watered down Stella.

Say What Again Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Again, not the song I think is 'the best', but songs that will never be far away from being favourites of mine for one reason or another. This one, if you'd asked me 15 years ago, would have definitley been my answer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkJNyQfAprY The next is just a great track which will always remind me of a 'special' time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
