fcuk me that was harder than you'd imagine... not listened to it for a while but likin nearly all the songs on it this morn

History Chimes featured in an episode of Lead Balloon recently.Bit fcukin depresiing though

If there is only four tracks to name, it is too much difficult. Let's say four tracks of the "heaven up here" (or there).

A Promise

The Cutter

Forgiven

My Kingdom

Oddly, I've heard Lips Like Sugar so often that I honestly wouldn't care if I never heard it again and I must sadly say that I still haven't gotten round to buying Siberia.:o Covers of Run Run Run and Paint It Black are just as good and better than the originals, respectively IMO.

1, ocean rain 2, rescue 3, seven seas 4, going up

about 24 years ago, a load of us kids were at lime street station and ian mac was in the queue for the london train, as typical kids it was a case of you go and ask him, no you go, im not going, anyway jeff went up and got him to sign his school bag, a few bemused looks as it didnt say mr echo!

That is your opinion, but not mine or....

1.- Bring on the Dancing Horses (Extended Mix). 2.- Ocean Rain. 3.- Rescue. 4.- Killing Moon.

Bonus:

Crocodiles. Do it Clean. Bring on the Dancing Horses (Early Version)!

Bastard! Top 4??? How the fook can I just whittle down the songs of my favourite group ever to just a piddling top 4?? Get away. I won't do this, reduce my love of this band to such bite-sized triviality. No way. :no:

For it to work it has to be a top 40. And even there I would be tying my brain cells in knots to try and come up with a definitive order.

So, no can do. Bring On The Dancing Horseradishes - and let them do it some justice. Heads Will Roll over this, A Promise you.

Way Out And Up We Go.....

E C H O A N D T H E B U N N Y M E N R U L E
