I was asked the MOST simple question at work today and it is driving me bananas as I realised I couldn't answer it, so I thought I would put it to the floor and see what happens.
The question was "What is your favourite ever record?"
I am a big Beatles fan so immediately thought of some of their tracks but couldn't actually answer the question.
In no particular order, and not exclusively, here is a VERY sad list
In my life
Revolution
Here comes the sun
Long and winding road
Strawberry fields forever
Won't get fooled again
Year of the cat
Lola
Praying for time
Mack the knife (Sinatra version)
Johnny be Goode
Roadrunner
etc etc
Sorry to burden you all, but can't sit here and suffer on my own!!

Savage Garden - Truly Madly Deeply
Is there really a record called 'Year of the Cat' ?

In The End by Linkin Park. If you listen to the lyrics it a bit like an IVA/Bankruptcy story!

i love folk music especially anything by joan baez, have been lucky enough to have seen her in concert 4 times, another one of my favs is the promise by tracey chapman, but i do love any music.
