Quick! Pick yout FIVE favorite songs of all time without consulting your record collection

^^yes

Echo & the Bunnymen - Over the Wall
David Sylvian - Taking The Veil
Joseph Arthur - Travel As Equals
Paul Simon - The Coast
King Crimson - Islands

Will probably be flagellating myself in a bit for not including anything by Roxy Music, David Bowie or Gene Clark.

AARGH! Sometimes I shouldn't post here while I should be working instead. I just realised that I managed to make an error in one of my supposedly-five-favourite-songs-of-all-times picks. It's as if my brain did some sort of erroneous auto-correct after typing 'the Co':
The Paul Simon selection should be 'The Cool, Cool River'
While I do like The Coast, there's five or six songs from the Rhythm Of The Saints album that I would rank above it. Over the last few years, I got increasingly fascinated with The Cool, Cool River.
