Gerry Top 10
Heaven Up here - Echo & the Bunnymen
Title track of the "difficult 2nd album". Just straight up, down the front of the Barrowlands going bananas, sweating youself down the 8 stane!
There is a Light That Never Goes Out - The Smiths
What can I say, one of the most beautiful songs in the world. Love it, makes me greet like a jessie.
She Sells Sanctuary - The Cult
There is still no stereo in the world that has ever been made that can play this loud enough, and god knows I've tried. The "Howling 12" remix is scandalous.

Tinseltown in the Rain - The Blue Nile
5 mins and 10 secs of popsational pop, and that only the 7". The 12" is even better. It's popmungus great mate.
I Feel For You - Chaka Khan
Best 12" ever made in my humble opinion. Hipswivellin' genius, best cover ever???
A Foggy Day - Frank Sinatra
Hard to pick one, but this does it for me. Francis Albert.....

I Believe In You - Talk Talk
Not to be confused with the better known I don't believe in you from the earlier album Colours Of Spring, this is off Spirit of Eden. Remarkably beautiful, Mark Hollis is a genius.

If You Want Blood - AC/DC
Lets' rock! No messin here, get the curtains shut, get the weans oot, and turn it up to breaking point. If you close your eyes your in The Apollo. Title track, Bon Scott at his best.
One - U2
As hard as a morning log to pick just one track, even Mary J Blige's version with them is amazing. Best band in the world ever????......
Killer on the Loose - Thin Lizzy
My fav band as you know, although in my old age can recognise they made some major keech. This is them at their rock pomp best, although I have had 5 Lizzy songs I wanted to put in.
