Reminds of the book (& film) High Fidelity...

...where the record shop owner, when asked to name his top 10 songs, agonises over the task all day and all night, changing his mind every couple of minutes.

This is more a '...of right now' than '...of all time' list - just five songs that spring to mind right now:

It's a long way to the top - AC/DC
Love Your Money - Daisy Chainsaw
At least we know that Russell Crowe's band's a fscking* pile of sh1t - Frenzal Rhomb
Buy me a pony - Spiderbait
Modern way of letting go - Idlewild

It's a bit Oz-centric, and probably subject to plenty of High Fidelty-style change, but hey, whaddya expect :)

* Forgive me, I'm posting this from work.

John. Busy lad.
