Great thread idea, matt ! Don't how many we can cite, but here are a few: David Bowie - Station To Station The Beatles - Come Together The Rolling Stones - Gimme Shelter Spiritualized - Ladies & Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space The Beach Boys - Wouldn't It Be Nice Pixies - Debaser |

'Smells like Teen Spirit'.
'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band', but it segue's perfectly into 'With A Little Help From My Friends'.
'Gimme Shelter'.
'Vertigo' by the Libertines, sure that won't win.
I like 'Airbag', too....
Thanks.

That's a great selection there to be getting on with - polling is open lads and lasses, you can choose anything up to five choices.

i know this one has a snowball's chance in hell of making it in against the other heavyweights already mentioned in the poll, but i will put it up here anyway. i'm going with the opening track off of one of my all-time favorite albums:

Some excellent suggestions so far, so I'll just add Running Up That Hill by Kate Bush, which I think hasn't been mentioned yet. EDIT: I hadn't seen that the poll was already going. Sorry, long day...  |

May WITBN not be the first to win, I'll totally nominate God Only Knows later on. |

May I make a plea to all y'all voting for I Wanna Be Adored and Wouldn't It Be Nice to reconsider? I mean, I love those songs as much as the next guy does. But wouldn't you rather end our compilation with I Am the Resurrection and place Cabin Essence somewhere in the middle? If you change your vote to Building Steam with a Grain of Salt, I'll give you a home on the range!  |

I honestly don't care that much for I Wanna Be Adored, it just doesn't seem to have as much melody as I'd expect from the Roses.

And now I do think that I forgot to cite "Care of Cell 44" by The Zombies. Brilliant track, aswell. |

I'm gonna take this opportunity to plug Building Steam with a Grain of Salt once again. With only 5 more votes, we'll be able to pull off a shocking upset that will send a strong message to Noely G that his fans not are musically conservative luddites like he is!

Just think, we could be famous, Pitchfork could do an article on us....... ( cue vast swathe of votes for Stone Roses). |

Disappointing thing about Adored winning means that we won't get a chance to possibly vote for any of their superior tunes like She Bangs The Drums or Resurrection in forthcoming rounds (each act limited to one song).
In no way an I trying to influence the vote here.....

Went with Smells Like Teen Spirit as it's probably my favourite Nirvana song so no superior song is being left out. Otherwise I would've gone with Airbag by Radiohead or possibly Whole Lotta Love but both artists have better songs.

Shoot! I just remembered Led Zeppelin's Black Dog when we going through this. With that said, I'd like to add it as a write-in  |

I must say that I'm disappointed the poll.

so it seems 'the perfect' album already has flaws, and we're only one track in so far |

So how long will it be until we start voting for the second track?

Didn't even notice you could vote for 5 songs. So I also voted for the Stone Roses one as I noticed it has the same amount of votes as London Calling. I prefer I wanna be adored.
Such a strategic voter, me.
