  14. Oooh, that’s a tough one, but probably have to go with Tender

  25. “Theme To An Imaginary Film” is my favorite. Has been since I found it on a collection of b-sides my brother made me, years ago. I later found it’s on the special collector’s edition disc, too.

  26. There’s No Other Way

  35. Country Sad Ballad Man

  36. So easy it’s not even funny:

    “You’re So Great”

    That tender, warbled ballad from the self-titled that’s got Graham’s fingerprints all over it: heartbroken, vulnerable, dead-center honest. Still my favorite all-time track from the band.

  37. Me, White Noise

  38. To the End (La Comedie) feat. Francoise Hardy

  39. Morricone. Excellent “Good Song” b-side that captures them at an innovative and bittersweet moment in their history.

  40. Strange News on Another Star

  41. Chemical World

  42. Chinese Bombs!

  43. “Coffee & TV”

  44. While I was watching this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-T8LMZhz6FQ , “Tender” turned into my favourite song. I hear it and I just start to cry, I can’t help it.
    I need this box set so much as I need my lungs to breath.

  45. The classic “Song 2″

  46. There’s no other way

  47. This is the next century
    Where the universal’s free
    You can find it anywhere
    Yes, the future has been sold
    Every night we’re gone
    And to karaoke songs
    How we like to sing a long
    Although the words are wrong

    It really, really, really could happen
    Yes, it really, really, really could happen
    When the days they seem to fall through you, well just let them go

    No one here is alone, satellites in every home
    Yes the universal’s here, here for everyone
    Every paper that you read
    Says tomorrow is your lucky day
    Well, here’s your lucky day

    It really, really, really could happen
    Yes, it really, really, really could happen
    When the days they seem to fall through you, well just let them go

    Well, it really, really, really could happen
    Yes, it really, really, really could happen
    When the days they seem to fall through you, well just let them go

    ====
    Yes I hope it really, really, really could happen, I hope I could really win this If you guys just let the Prize go.. to me.. If I win, tomorrow is truly my lucky day :)

  48. end of the century

  49. Tracy Jacks!

  50. Ba ba ba ba BUGMAN was the first song to jump into my head ’cause it just f’n ROCKS!

  51. “Tender”

  52. Fool’s Day

  53. “On the Way to the Club” – great song

  54. Out of Time

  55. Trimm Trabb, Magic America, Young and Lovely

  56. The Universal.

  57. For Tomorrow

  58. Parklife!

  59. Battery In Your Leg

  60. Coxon’s guitar playing was a big inspiration for me, so songs like “Bugman” and “Country Sad Ballad Man” really embrace some of those great elements, but “The Universal” and “Beetlebum” are still just incredibly hard to beat.

  61. This Is a Low.
