Guest Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 how could I have left out the Stones - Gimme Shelter - (or the version by Sisters of Mercy) this is tough!! Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 and... and... and... "Ooops, word censored!"ody has any coldplay.. (maybe too depressing for desert island!!) I'd take Politik and/or Yellow - if I had more choice!! Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Well, if we're onto The Stones then I'll have Paint it Black - one of my all time faves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tina C Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 This is much too hard for me but glad to see that Layla features somewhere (my daughter was partly named after that one - but there is a whole other story attached). And as for the Stones its got to be As Tears Go By or maybe Angie. Van Morrison's Brown Eyed Girl might make it onto my list - always makes me dance. No, its just too hard, my head is spinning. And I have to do some work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd chosen Lulu, Cilla, Dusty and Petula for mine, but the boys wanted to pick the names, hence fimbles and tweenies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hymn From A Village - James (got tickets to see them in April, sooo excited!) 5. Dance Dance - Fall Out Boy (not v into emo, but Daisy and I love a bop to this!) 6. Yes - Dave Macalmont (sp, and Butler? can't remember but good memories of living abroad and dancing about to this in our scuzzy halls parties) 7. Chelsea Girl - Ride (ah to be 15 again and swooning over Mark Gardener...) 8. Cedar Room - Doves (first pressie hubby ever bought me, gorgeous song) 9. Baby I love You - Ramones (first dance at our wedding) 10. Maps - Yeah Yeah Yeahs That was so difficult! Ask me again tomorrow and the line up will be different, SO many to choose from....

Guest Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I can't make up my mind..... Music can bring back such vivid memories, both lovely and sad, and to get the mix right is hard! here goes.... 1 Club Tropicana, Wham. It's MY song - it's followed me around since my teens, and everyone knows that it's my song. 2 Have I Told You Lately That I Love You, Rod Stewart. Our first dance when we got married. 3 The Only Way Is Up, Yazz (I think!). Sixth year disco, Alisdair Powers in a white tuxedo..... 4 Wherever You Will Go, The Calling. Up full blast, just one of my favourite songs ever, but it must be played at full volume! 5 White Christmas, Bing Crosby. Has the ability to make me feel festive, and happy, whatever the time of year! 6 Cool, West Side Story. Again, full volume - just FAB! 7 Crazy For You, Madonna. First year disco, first snog....... 8 Friday Night, from the Kids from Fame, live... "Does everybody here LOVE FAME?!" "YYYYYYYYEEEEAAAAAAARGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!" "Is Fame gonna live FOREVER?!" "YYYYEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGH!" The opening lines to the song on the album - I was there, I was screaming If you listen really hard, I swear you can hear me......! 9 When I Fall In Love, Rick Astley. Was listening to it when I learned a very dear friend had been killed. Still miss him, and the song will always remind me of him. 10 American Pie, Don McLean. Was singing it, during a lock-in, the Friday before Christmas 1990, when I looked up, locked eyes, and fell in love for the first time. Can I have another 10 please.....?
