All of PSB's singles are great in there own individual way, except the appalling "A Red Letter Day" and the boring "I Get Along". All the others are brilliant, especially "West End Girls", "I Wouldn't Normally Do This Kind Of Thing", "Can You Forgive Her?", "Opportunities" & "Miracles".

The CELL by Stephen King instantly hit number 1 in New York Times Bookseller Lists selling well over 200 thousand copies in three weeks. This affirms my opinion: People really need an occassional good horror read...

You're welcome :D But how will you make the scoring? I mean the top song in a list will get 38 points and the last one 1 point, the in-between ones getting corresponding points in a reverse way? Or just feeling content to say that so many people put that song number one so it must be...etc etc...

16 people have voted. I'd say we need about 40 votes to make it even remotely reliable.

It is always refreshing to see New York city boy and Se A Vida E floating (mostly) at the bottom of any best-of lists...

18 votes so far, well done to everybody who voted :up:
I agree with you Blue Swan, I would like to see about 40 votes. The possibility to vote will remain at least until the end of this month. :)
