See, this isn't that tricky! Great suggestions so far. (But I already picked The Reel, Whirly..... so you get to pick another Chems song!)




Damg it, the one song that's a notch of surpremacy (according to my ears) above the rest gets nixed from my list... All righty, Chems choice 2 would be The Test.

You left out a few? You were asking me to name songs cuz you couldn't think of any more!



I could never do this. I couldn't even name 100 bands, let alone 100 bands that I listen to.

Yeah, I did. By around number 64 my brain was hurting. I left out Cocteau Twins to name one... and I never did think of a decent Cure song to put in there. And out of formality I should have put House of Pain in there somewhere as well as that horrible right Said Fred song. I also neglected some cheesy new wave hits along with others that have been buried in the back of my brain such as Toy Dolls and that Warm Leatherette song. And I missed my chance to give Gunter some praise (which would have pleased Bosco I'm sure, lol). And there's more classical stuff I could have added and even a couple of musicals songs.



I think I gave itunes a long once over but felt like I was cheating somehow. Most of that was done from memory and walking over to the cd shelf and trying to remember all those old dusty discarded cassettes that I haven't heard in years. It was so hard not to give a band more than one slot.



All that said I am not doing another list! :P

31. Sneaker Pimps- 6 underground

32. Blur- Me, White Noise

33. CCR- Run Through The Jungle





Sneaker Pimps! I really love them, well, at least their first album. I must dispute with you that the Nellee Hooper edit is superior to the original. And, overall I gotta say Becoming X and Walking Zero I like more than that.



Anyways, I'm too lazy right now to make a whole list, but here is some things I haven't seen other people put so far:



1. Woven- Pillage (I just found this lil' treasure, I'm lovin' it!)

2. Propellerheads- History Repeating

3. Fatboy Slim- Everybody Loves a Carnival or Star 69 (music video version)

4. Leftfield- Afrika Shox

5. The Beatles- Love You To

6. Dandy Warhols- We Used To Be Friends

7. Froufrou (aka. Imogean Heap)- Breathe In

8. Gorillaz- Clint Eastwood

9. Imogean Heap- Hide and Seek

10. Karminsky Experience Inc.- Exploration

11. No Doubt- Hella Good

12. Orbital- Frenetic

13. Theivery Corporation- Facing East



Anyways, also kudos to whoever mentioned Gossip Folks, one of the few Missy Elliot tunes I like. :)

8O This should have been tops on my list. Day-um!



Although three of yours were already in my list: The Reel, Safe From Harm, and I Think I'm In Love. Don't feel obligated to replace them with three more tracks, but please feel free to.

I picked Nightclubbing and opted for Blondie's original of Atomic. Great soundtrack though.
