littleheavenSnurched from the majority of my f-list
- list your top five favorite musical artists.
- list your top five favorite songs from each artist.
- tag five people to do the same.
I actually found this really hard, because I tend to like random songs, rather than a body of work, especially as I've gotten older. I've done a mixture of current favourites and old ones that have stood the test of time.
Not bothering to tag - if you want to, feel free!

They're playing here next month. I am beside myself with squee. They've only toured here once before, as backup to Robbie Williams in 2003, so they didn't get to do a full set.
