    These two are joint top - I can't separate them. Two best songs on the best album ever.

    2. Neil Young - Revolution Blues
    2. Neil Young - Ambulance Blues

    The rest are in no particular order and are included for various reasons.

    The Frames - Revelate
    Gomez - Wippin Picadilly
    Neil Young - Computer Cowboy
    Bob Dylan - Like A Rolling Stone (Live 1965)
    Ben Folds Five - Brick
    Andrew WK - She Is Beautiful
    David Crosby - Cowboy Movie
    Leonard Cohen - Jazz Police

    Well, there's 10, invariable I could probably find 10 or 20 more that I would dispute the list with (apart from top 2). Most notable absence is Joni Mitchell, mostly because I can only think of her in albums rather than songs. Even looking back at the list, I don't listen to most of those songs much now, but at one stage each of them meant a lot to me.
