QuoteBilly that bloody song has inveigled it's way onto my ipod (via the missus). Still can't decide whether I like it or hate it. Still it helped me make sense of your signatures.

Your missus has very good taste - wait a minute, what am I saying ...

And I'll have you know that my current signature is pure poetry.  ;)

Stopping By Woods On A Snowy Evening by Robert Frost.  Had to study it for O Level.  And "Another Girl, Another Planet" is almost a work of genius!

1. Alive - Pearl Jam
2. Ramble on - Led Zeppelin (just love the bass on this track) - won by a nose from "Babe I'm gonna leave you"
3. You can call me Al - Paul Simon
4. Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen
5. Something in the way she moves - James Taylor

This is after having to dish out some tough love and I could probably do this another 5 times with 5 different songs each time!
