I was taking "song" literally, not counting instrumentals (though "The Diamond Sea" may be a half-cheat). My list would be very different otherwise.
"Zoo Music Girl" rules. I should pull out the Birthday Party more often.
I think "Warsaw" may be my favourite Joy Division song. Otherwise, "Shadowplay", possibly.

AARGH! Sometimes I shouldn't post here while I should be working instead. I just realised that I managed to make an error in one of my supposedly-five-favourite-songs-of-all-times picks. It's as if my brain did some sort of erroneous auto-correct after typing 'the Co':The Paul Simon selection should be 'The Cool, Cool River'While I do like The Coast, there's five or six songs from the Rhythm Of The Saints album that I would rank above it. Over the last few years, I got increasingly fascinated with The Cool, Cool River.
