the wife and i were discussing tunes we don't mind hearing over and over again. or songs that float yer boat.

as she is 10 years my junior our tastes overlapped a bit, but here's mine anyhow.

led zep' - immigrant song

doors - riders on the storm

free - all right now

beach boys - good vibes'

wheatus - teenage dirtbag

radiohead - creep

frankie knuckles - your love

allison limerick - where love lives.

what's yours. (i'm sure this has been done before but what hasn't :roll: )
 
All good stuff. How about:-

I'm sure you're only allowed eight pieces of music on DID so I'll keep to that:

Pretty Vacant....Sex Pistols
Public Image Ltd....P.I.L.
Transmission....Joy Division
Tinseltown....The Blue Nile
Paint it black....Rolling Stones
There is a light that never goes out....The Smiths
Rock the Kasbah....The Clash
Temple of Love....Sisters of Mercy.

Loads more to choose from but if they called the show Desert Island Itunes/mp3's it could run for days.
