One Song

One song that you think everybody should have a copy of and you can listen to over and over again never tire of hearing ?

Kennedy by The Wedding Present for me

Kennedy by The Wedding Present for me

Too much apple pie should be my motto :icon_bigg



I would pick These Days. My favourite version is by Kathryn Williams, but the versions by 10,000 Maniacs and Jackson Browne (who wrote it) are also good. Probably a bit too miserable for most people though.

 

[Melton Fox]

I Remember You - Skid Row

It would no doubt sound like a cheerful little ditty compared to some of my stuff...

 

[Orifice]

'Take Me' - Wedding Present.

7+ mins of perfection. Nothing else needed.

Except maybe 'Interstellar Overdrive'

I started off depressingly well with 1-6....must have mislaid my Abba greatest hits as well...

what about happy talk

 

[webmaster]

what about happy talk

I prefer the Dizzee Rascal version. "Money don't grow on no stick". Can't argue with lines like that.
