VU - Sister Ray (to ensure it pisses off the neighbors)Clash - Death or Glory (hard to pick but wins out for convolving fucking with nuns)Replacements - Color Me Impressed (the best song on their best record)Wilco - Misunderstood (for the haters)Spaceshits - C'mon Let's Suicide (to up the guitar and lo-fi quotients a bit more, because I know that's what ILM likes best)
5 for 2005 - I absolutely cheated here, to check on dates and get song names right, in my perfect world these are the songs that'd be blarin' out of car windows on hot summer nights:
The Fevers - Bound To CryDemon's Claws - Blood On My FangsKing Khan & BBQ Show - Shake Real LowThe Ponys - FerociousKing Louie - I'm 13 and I'm Too Ugly To Live

(as the thread says songs, I've had to leave out my favourite piece of music ever, which is Steve Reich's 'Variations for Winds, Strings and Keyboards' which would go above all of 'em.)

Cocteau Twins: SummerheadAdorable: A to Fade Inthe Faint: Mote (I prefer it to the original!)Throwing Muses: Mania (a live version that is chaos compared to the one on the album, but stuns me so much)Pixies: Hey (love, and then some)
