AstroKat 534 Posted July 23 Agreed. While Centerfold does make my top 10, there's a couple of others I would have preferred to go through. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't hate Pie Jesu as a song, but it's no chance here, and I have a soft spot for the Frog Chorus from childhood. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

En Passant 3,741 Posted July 23 10 minutes ago, RoverAndOut said: Don't hate Pie Jesu as a song, but it's no chance here, Nor me. I love all sorts of things, Beethoven's 7th especially off the top of my head, but it's no pop song and nor is this. It's a decent list actually with, strangely, not one thing I absolutely detest for a change. Jimmy Nail isn't going to make it either but even that I don't hate. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
