    Give us your ten favourite ever songs.

    They might not be your favourite ten right this minute, but over time what ten songs would you take to the grave as a representation of you - or what would you play on Desert Island Discs.

    Sorry if this has been done before.

    1. Oh Oh I Love Her So - The Ramones
    2. Never Understand - The Jesus And Mary Chain
    3. I Wanna Be Happy - The Queers
    4. The Man Whose Head Expanded - The Fall
    5. Rockaway Beach - The Ramones
    6. Get Off My Cloud - The Rolling Stones
    7. Here Comes The Summer - The Undertones
    8. Help Me Rhonda - The Beach Boys
    9. Gigantic - The Pixies
    10. Going Underground - The Jam

    L.D.L. You obviously like the Ramones. Pity you weren't racing with me back in march when a horse called Ramone won a big race in the Curragh at 100-1 !!!!! As regards top 10 fav songs
    10. ELENOR RIGBY ........THE BEATLES
    9. THIS MASQUERADE ........THE CARPENTERS
    8. BRING ON THE NIGHT ........THE POLICE
    7. THERE'S A TRAIN THAT LEAVES TONIGHT ......MARY BLACK
    6. THE WHOLE TOWN'S LAUGHING AT ME .......TEDDY PENDERGASS
    5. THE CLOSEST THING TO HEAVEN .......THE KANE GANG

    Well that's it L.D.L. Judging on your picks you would probably hate my ones but sure that's what makes the world go round...or as they say "whatever floats your boat". Great thread by the way. Just came across it as the old footy forums are quiet enough.
