revised and edited about 10 times
and will probably change 10 times tonight
and i know its 20

Looking down all the posts so far, and allowing for my ignorance of a lot of those listed, I found that I like the following number of songs.

Cornelius Atweazle - 3
Pooliekev - 4
Grabec - 8
Richard Head - 3
ADG - 2
ECG - 8 (out of 40!)
Salty - 1
Blue Monkey - 3
Lager Lout -10 (out of 20)
Jonny - 11 (out of 30)
Jishtownend - 1
The Lightning Tree - 9 (out of 20)
Mr Ed - 0 (out of 40)
BWH - 0
Albatross - 3
Andyp - 0
Hawklord - 2
Katcha - 3 (out of 20)

Just goes to show how our tastes differ. God knows how Mr Glasses is going to judge this!

That gives me an idea for a second list:

Chop The Tree - Icicle Works
Love Is Full of Wonderful Colours - Icicle Works
Reaping The Rich Harvest - Icicle Works
As the Dragonfly Flies - Icicle Works
Lover's Day - Icicle Works
In The Cauldron Of Love - Icicle Works
Out Of Season - Icicle Works
Factory In The Desert - Icicle Works
Birds Fly (Whisper To A Scream) - Icicle Works
Nirvana - Icicle Works

I've copied Billingham Poolie, there are loads of songs that I haven't heard of either but some people have listed some pure crap.......

The scores on the doors (number of songs that I like)

Mr Catweasle - 1
PoolieKev - 5
Grabec - 2
Richard Head - 1
ADG - 1
ECG - 1
Salty - 0
Bluemonkey - 1
Lager Lout - 3
Jish - 0
Lightning Tree - 3
Mr Red - 3
Billingham Poolie - 4
Albatross - 1
AndyP - 0
Katcha -2
Hawk - 0 (should actually be minus numbers for having jump around amongst them - thats a criminal record if ever I've heard one.)

My God what an admission you like 3 Cliff Richard songs!!!

i actually like 5, I couldn't see Missletoe and Wine or Saviours day..... It was good to see some old classics like Living Doll and Congratulations there though......

I think you will Mr Atweazle's idea was to have a 'The Ultimate Bunker Album 2007', ie it would be 'released' in 2007, not a compilation of 2007 songs. I'm sure all the songs you mentioned are very commendable, but I haven't heard any of them, unless my sons have been playing them, so I can't really comment on how good or bad they might be.

And why do we need 'to get out more', don't most people discover their new music on this interwebby thing in our own homes now?

As a Leeds Utd fan I just wanted to say your choice of music on here (and your music threads in general) make me want to attend your end of season disco. Hope you don't mind me havin' a punt - but 10 is impossible and will change tomorrow and only No. 1 is in order:

Feel Like Goin' Home_Charlie Rich
Every Little Bit Hurts_The Clash
Try A Little Tenderness_Otis
And I am Telling You_ Roberta Thomas
A Change Is Gonna Come_Sam Cooke
Here I Go Again_Archie Bell and The Drells
Rainin' In My Heart_Al Green
Like A Hurricane_Neil Young
You Got The Love_Candi Statton
Willin'_Little Feat!

live 12" version or album version
