Shouldn't we agree on a song and all vote for it?

Q magazine did this recently with 1001 top tracks.  To be honest, I don't think too much of Q, incredibly bland magazine.


I suspect it will be along these lines...


http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/music/3281327.stm


1. U2 - One
2. Aretha Franklin - I Say a Little Prayer
3. Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
4. The Beatles - A Day in the Life
5. Elvis Presley - In the Ghetto
6. Eminem - My Name Is
7. Radiohead - Creep
8. Destiny's Child - Independent Women
9. Oasis - Live Forever
10. Ike and Tina Turner - River Deep Mountain High


The more complete list may be here

MJ the only real choices for the Rats could ever be Mondays or Rat Trap. Other tracks don't stand much chance of getting votes elsewhere (non-fans).

This is not at all about you, ArrGee


Seriously, if we want to raise visibility for Rats and Geldof music, we can't be snobs about it, we gotta aim for the masses...

Absolutely MJ, I don't care what the magazine/radio station etc is, if there's a vote to be made for songs I'll vote Rats. It doesn't matter whether I read or listen or watch, we just need Rats votes and lots of them.

But given the Rats did not make the 1001 best songs last time out.... http://www.rocklist.net/q1001_songs.htm


No chance of them making a top 100.


And if I had to choose my five all time fave songs, Mondays and Rat Trap wouldn't make it into a Rats top five!  I'd vote for Kicks, Howard Hughes, Eva Braun, Clockwork and Fall Down.  But who else will?


my five would be....



  • Ballroom Blitz (Sweet)

  • Razzmatazz (Pulp)

  • Reward (Teardrop Explodes)

  • Take Me Out (Franz Ferdinand)

  • Step On (Happy Mondays)

Sorry I am a music snob, I'd rather the Rats not be associated with any list Q produce!

Mondays and Rat Trap are not my personal choices by any means. Dave wouldn't get a look in in the top 5000 so I had to vote for them



I posted this on here to encourage Rat votes not Franz Ferdinand ArrGee
