Based on the results so far and with a bit of excel wizardry heres the most popular by album (as long as everyone had them in the same order..if it wasn;t the vote didn't count :) )

Vengeance
No Greater Love
Poison Street
225/Ballard of Bodmin
Lust for Power/Innocence/Get me out/Purity/Whirlwind
Fate/Bad Old World
Wonderful Way to go/Long Goodbye
Ornage Tree Roads
Ble Beat/Red Earth
BloodSports
States Radio
I wouldn't say boo to a goose. I'm not a coward, I just realise that it would be largely pointless.

Liked the idea of this thread so thought I would bump it back up. Anyhow here is my eleven.

 1. Christian Militia
 2. No Rest
 3. Love Songs
 4. Green and grey
 5. Marrakesh
 6. These words
 7. Headlights
 8. Snelsmore Wood
 9. Red Earth
10. High
11. Today is a good day

If I had to pick 2 tracks of the other 2 studio albums Brave New World 2 of B Sides and Abandoned Tracks and Brother of Lost Songs
We always burned brightest when no one was watching.

Not so easy to choose, especially because sometimes it changes. It depends what happening these days, my humour, people around me, but I will try:

1 - Lib Ed
2 - Better than them (the 1st NMA song I´d listened)
3 - The Hunt
4 - 225
5 - Purity
6 - Here Comes the War
7 - Courage
8 - I love WWTG, but Lullaby is my favourite NMA song
9 - Someone like Jesus
10 - Southwest
11 - Prayer flags
12 - All consuming fire
13 - La push

my fav' NMA song on each album would be for the moment ('cause it can change with the time..)

Running in the rain
The Attack
Ballad
Inheritance
Vanity
My People
White of their eyes
Leeds road 3am
LS43
No mirror no shadow
Today is a good day

Modern Times
Caslen ( i think an interlude would be very good in the next NMA studio albums)
Music is what feelings sound like

1. Smalltown England
2. Drag it Down
3. Heroes
4. I Love the World
5. Purity
6. Fate
7. No Pain
8. Orange Tree Roads
9. Another Imperial Day
10. Bloodsports
11. States Radio

I found Carnival and Hopeless Causes were the hardest to pick just one song from. And Purity only beat Marrakesh by the tiniest of mood swings.

Lets give it a go...

Christian Militia
Better Than Them
The Hunt
I Love The World
Eleven Years
Bad Old World
Queen Of My Heart
Flying Through The Smoke
Carlisle Road
Wired
States Radio

But how can you possibly have an NMA playlist without b-sides?  So I'm going to throw in BROTHER, MODERN TIMES and PRISON.  Hey, it's my playlist...

This reminds yiu just how diverse and amazing NMAs back catalogue is, there's scarcely an album filler on any of the band's albums, I find with most bands I skip a lot of album tracks, but I don't do that with NMA much unless I'm really in the mood for a specific track or run of songs...
Clever monkeys with technology, barely outta the caves and trees, it's all vanity - and ch@os rules it all!
