[Quatterarbro]

This is going to be hard.

[Spudzilla]

Just sent mine in.

[TAT]

I don't know if I could compile 50, let alone 100 songs...

fuck

[Spudzilla]

That's why we do only 10

I just picked my favourite song by an artist then listed them in order, just to get some variety in there.

[TAT]

Only 10 :psyduck:

[Lazlow]

That's how these things work TAT.

TBH I don't think you're going to get enough diversity in here to even get a definite top 10.

[Spudzilla]

Oh damnit, I've now thought of about another 20 or so songs I could have voted for.

[AndrewFoersChumpington]

Post your votes please, I want to judge you depending on whether or not you have taste.

[FrozenSoul80]

I don't like private votes. My songs, in no particular order:
-Life on Mars? - David Bowie
-Hey Jude - The Beatles
-Swing Life Away - Rise Against
-Monster Mash - Bobby Pickett
-Words - Kate Miller-Heidke
-The Love Cats - The Cure
-Imperial March - John Williams
-Thunderchild - Jeff Wayne
-Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen
-Beat It - Michael Jackson

Actually, I'm quite happy with that list. It sums up my (poor) musical taste quite nicely. Do I have to PM this list for it to be counted?

[Spudzilla]

1. Achilles Last Stand - Led Zeppelin
2. Echoes - Pink Floyd
3. Close To The Edge - Yes
4. Orion - Metallica
5. In The Court Of The Crimson King - King Crimson
6. Won't Get Fooled Again - The Who
7. YYZ - Rush
8. Hallowed Be Thy Name - Iron Maiden
9. Karn Evil 9 - First Impression: Part II - Emerson, Lake and Palmer
10. Phaedra - Tangerine Dream

Seriously, there'd be no way in hell I could name 10 songs that would be my favourites. I'm just going to wait until this final list comes out and then deride all of your opinions.

[TAT]

-Thunderchild - Jeff Wayne

Dude I went and saw the live musical version (with Shannon Noll~) When it came. It was fucking awesome.
I used to listen to my dad's CDs of it when I was young, creeped the shit out of me, but very very awesome.

[FrozenSoul80]

SOMEONE ELSE HAS HEARD JEFF WAYNE'S RENDITION OF WAR OF THE WORLDS?!
Dude, I was brought up on Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of War of the Worlds.

H.G. Wells is also one of my favourite authors >_>

[jewbee]

Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of War of the Worlds is the ONLY version of War of the Worlds.
