It's with Ben Folds if I recall, I really think it has charm and I was a Pulp fan of old pre His n Hers, and could get on board with it, mainly for the Ben Folds element though.

I just simply don’t now. That’s a little bit down to naturally moving away from High Fidelity style top fives, definitive lists. But mainly it’s because I realised it’s pretty difficult and fairly futile to weigh up and decide whether I like “The Boxer” more or less than “Fake Plastic Trees”. If I’m ever asked what my favourite song is (I never am) I normally rattle off a few bands and say that’s the stuff I like. Two beautiful, classic songs. I love The Boxer and I love Fake Plastic Trees even more. In fact I just remembered that's the Radiohead song that's really my favourite, I've played it so many times, more than any other. And I read that High Fidelity novel and enjoyed it and identified with it, with its various top five lists. :s Edited August 22, 2023 by robby b 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just not something I do anymore, I don’t tend to think of things in a definitive league table sense. I suppose I could make a top ten of Pink Floyd songs, but I’d get to ten and think “Ah maybe what I would be putting in at number eleven should be here instead.” And I know the list would be different on another day, so I don’t know how much value I’d put on any list I created. On the other hand I suppose it might be of personal interest to me if I had done my ten favourite songs aged 18, then at 28, then 38 and so on and see how it changes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted August 27, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted August 27, 2023 OK. I know I said I wasn't going to play, seeing as it's impossible. But I've concluded that, if I HAVE to choose, with the proverbial gun to my head, it would have to be this: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
