There's a single clipped hi-hat towards the end of The Rip that always makes me really want a house beat to kick in over the outro.

geoff barrow basically turned the rip into an epic banger a year later with the horrors' sea within a sea

32 3294 Franz Ferdinand - Ulysses
Probably the worst song to appear on any of these lists.

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. 34 3596 Glasvegas - Geraldine

I've changed my mind after listening to One Day Like This again. It's absolutely great and deserved more than one vote. The clash between the rhythm and the floating strings, Coldplay could never do something like that, they've never been able to handle two ideas at once.

Completely missed this poll somehow. would've given another vote to Machine Gun (it's loads better than The Rip). Some of the stuff here is baffling though. Glasvegas?!
