"Desert Island CD-R"

Think it's been a long time since someone mentioned this.

Basically, try and list thirteen songs that would make 'as close to' the definitive music cd, that you're stuck on a desert island with, with no electricity, but never mind about that.

13 tracks, what songs would you choose? (Don't worry about the length, just make it thirteen, even if you have Shine on you Crazy Diamond followed by In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida and Tubular Bells)

Listening to One now, fantastic.

Can't find a detailed version of True Love Waits mind, but hey

Actually, might be the New York 2001 version. Not sure, iTunes is a bit baggered. Still, whatever version of it you get/have, it's a beautiful song.

Would need to think about this properly, but off the top of my head, in no order:

Well, actually, the only album I have by them does have some truly great songs, but none of them compare to Billy's earlier stuff - I mean, 'Lyric' rocks.

No FFAF, Cyclone?

Because that's only good when you're off your head, NOT when you're contemplating the mysteries of the universe and your shoes on a desert island.
