Eleven sweet songs...

[Stoney]

Hmmmmmmmm "what have I done? What have we made?"...... as a talented wordsmith wrote a few years ago.lol

Anyways, since my esteemed friend Jib' has come up wit a reasonable idea........ Here we go......

Vengeance (tho' Smalltown England, Christian Militia and the trax off PRICE 12" were all close!).....
Ambition (Drag It Down and more all contenders, HEROIN would've walked it if it'd been on the lp!)
Lights Go Out (remix please! my god almost impossible on that lp It's why I cheated a bit).....
225 (again neigh on impossible........ White Coats oughta have it's listing!).....
Marrakesh (tough but every time for me.........)
White light (harder than I thought it would've been......)
No Pain (Over The Wire just missed out.....)
Orange Tree Roads.....( I'd already said so....... ..)
Fireworks Night......
Rivers (instant favourite song from a strong cd!)
States Radio (another really strong cd and hard to pick........)


Now these will possibly change tomora, but what compilation cd it makes! Nice idea fer a thread Jib's old lad!

Since there's two of we NMA Family diehards here, I'll let the Man speak for himself.

1. Big Blue
2. Orange Tree Roads
3. Prayer Flags
4. Headlights
5. Mambo Queen of the Sandstone City
6. Today is a Good Day
7. Ocean Rising
8. Eleven Years
9. Bury the Hatchet
10. The Mermaid Song
11. North Star

1. Stranger
2. Aimless Desire
3. Ambition
4. Refugee
5. LS43 (This song scares me)
6. Bluebeat

But it's Friday night, and we are tired, so we are going to leave our list as it is.

OK - Last time I brought a baseball bat to a hockey game and I learned a valuable lesson: It is wise to read the beginning of the thread, thereby grasping the concept of the thread. Ahem.

My list consists of not necessarily my faves from each album but the ones that affect me consistently; steal my breath, rile me up, frighten me, etc.. Hard to choose, but damn the torpedoes...

1. No Man's Land (My theme song after being laid off - eleven months of it.)
2. Ambition
3. Lights Go Out
4. Green & Grey
5. Before I Get Old
6. White Light (It's impossible for me to sit down - the epic intro guitar riff is, well, ....epic.)
7. Lullaby
8. Stranger ( When I first heard this I said," This is the last punk song. Ever. A little band belting out pure emotion. Today, amongst all the beautiful heart-felt words in the catalog I find that none resonate with me more than,
"Once we went back to the house we were born in
The glass was smashed and there were boards on the doors

and it seemed so right that the past was all laid to waste

and our trail covered up and lost"

My story and I'm glad for it.)

9. LS43 (This song freaks me out - it feels like two crazy people out in the night doing things. Scary things!)
10. Sky In Your Eyes
11. Disappeared

-William
