Forgot the best tracks:

1. Carole King- Tapestry (I Feel The Earth Move)

Can I drop Bad for Good and volume three, move Original Sin up to 8th and add:

9. Fool's garden: Dish of The Day (Lemon Tree, Pieces or Wild Days)
10=. Dire Straits: Brothers In Arms (Why Worry)
10=. Fool's Garden: Once In A Blue Moon (Cry Baby cry)

I can change these whenever I like, can't I? My collection of CDs, tapes and records currently take up the spare room of my flat and include evertything from Iron maiden to Patsy Cline.

You're trying to make this difficult for me now

Yeah you can change then whenever you want

Look- I've just noticed that I completely omitted Dido, Aerosmith, Springsteen and Aimee Mann, but I'll wait awhile before I change it.

Which Aimee Mann song do you like?

I've got Bachelor No. 2 or, the last remains of the Dodo, which is a great album, Red Vines is probably my fave track First I ever heard so I think it's stuck.

Bachelor No. 2 is the album I was thinking off, and my favourite song from it is Save Me

BUT my favourite song by her isn't even on an album, It's "Driving With One Hand On The Wheel" on the B-side of Long Shot from the I'm With Stupid album.

I like that Save Me too, but I don't have I'm with Stupid yet, just Bachelor and the Ulitimate collection, must check if the one you mentioned is on it.

What about Dido?

It could be on the ultimte collection, I haven't got that album.

My favourite Dido song is Christmas day (I know it's only on the special edition of the album, but it's a classy song)

other than that, probably thank you (I know it's obvious!)

I like All you want

I like all the tracks, although I'm not completely convinced by the dancey one at the end, the name of which completely escapes me.

I haven't listened to it to ages, I'm currently listening to Norah Jones, The Strokes, Badly Drawn Boy and Tenacious D (wayhey!)

I've got that Norah Jones album (assuming you mean Come Away with Me"). Don't you just love "Don't Know Why"?

And also, the video for Fk her Gently by Tenacious D!

Wayhey! I love the whole of the Tenacious D album, Jack Black's so damn funny!

Wonderboy and Tribute are my favourites

I haven't heard the album yet, but I'm going to borrow it from my mate Dave tomorrow.

Good Good because it rocks.

Em- you heard Aimee Mann's new album Lost In Space yet? I bought it today and I've got to track 7 and it's pretty damn good so far!

I didn't even know she had a new album out

I shall have to keep my eye open now
