    8th place is a classic. I adore Eddie Vedder's voice. I could listen to him read a menu and be mesmerised. I also love this song and the album was one I bought twice as the first got worn out. It's one that survived the novelty bonus which pushed some other better known songs down the list. It is of course



    Artist: Pearl Jam
    Song: Jeremy

    Things are starting to heat up now...7th place is by a band I've heard of but not heard a lot of their music. My first impression wasn't that great - I liked it but felt that it went on a bit too long. The more I listened though the more I liked it. It absolutely nails the category (as do all the top 10 songs really).

    So I have a confession to make. I'm not really a big Elvis fan. I enjoy some of his stuff but I've never even bought a greatest hits. So imagine how thrilled I was to see an Elvis song submitted.
    The person who submitted this one knew what they were doing though. This is a song that always hits me right in the feels. It is of course,



    Artist: Elvis Presley
    Song: In the Ghetto

    That's what nabs

    Now...before we head into our top five, we had an anonymous entry, considerately compiled by someone who was worried that a certain player wouldn't feel able to freely share his love of this next artist without censure and mockery. They felt this was the song that a certain someone really wanted to submit



    Bonus points for anyone who guesses both for and by whom this was submitted ;)
