2. Velvet Sunsets - The Music Emporium - The Music Emporium
3. A House Is Not A Motel - Forever Changes - Love
4. Neighborhood #2 (Laika)- Funeral - Arcade Fire
5. Elevation - Marquee Moon - Television
6. Lazy - I Could Live In Hope - Low
7. Remember The Future Part One - Remember The Future - Nektar (Okay, I cheated...)
8. Time - Dark Side Of The Moon - Pink Floyd
9. Happiness Is Easy - The Colour Of Spring - Talk Talk
10. God Only Knows - Pet Sounds - The Beach Boys

I find the concept of pinning down an idea of your favourite songs a challenging process. There are many songs that I have rated a perfect score to but to narrow the songs down to the ones that are the closest to you is difficult. But I'm going to try to compile a list of what my favourite songs are.

(In no particular order)
Satellite of Love - Lou Reed
Champagne Supernova - Oasis
Age of Adz - Sufjan Stevens
No Surprises - Radiohead
I Am Trying To Break Your Heart - Wilco
Someone Great - LCD Soundsystem
Pink Triangle - Weezer
Warning Sign - Coldplay
Today - The Smashing Pumpkins
Svefn-G-Englar - Sigur Ros
The Thoughts of Mary Jane - Nick Drake
Androgynous - The Replacements
Coffee & TV - Blur
If You're Feeling Sinister - Belle & Sebastian
Gold Soundz - Pavement
In My Life - The Beatles
A Certain Romance - Arctic Monkeys
Wake Up - Arcade Fire
