My all time top 100 tunes

[DotCommunist]

I dreamt of 'boys of the old brigade' last night so its in my top 100 of the subconscience

 

[MrSki]

Don't talk about dreams please.

 

[ska invita]

I think the idea of this thread is that you listen to ringo's 100 on saturday, not work out your own

Tough decisions, anyone else fancy trying to list theirs?

 

[DotCommunist]

Don't talk about dreams please.

I've been working on mine for about five years. It's really difficult!

Both! Listen and put your own up here. Then make a recording so we can all hear it

Get on with it Supine When are you going away?

I think the idea of this thread is that you listen to ringo's 100 on saturday, not work out your own

Are those things mutually exclusive then?

I'm really struggling now. I played two almost rans on my radio show last night and realised that they HAD to be in my top 100. I can only find one tune to take out though

I also just realised that I have four records from one artist in there, and it's not my favourite singer Dennis Brown. I'm in shock, and I can't take one of them out either, I may have to reevaluate my entire world over this and change my favourite singer. It's too much!
