Post your top 5 songs of all time

Oh FUCK IT.

Soul II Soul - Keep On Movin'
Prince - Purple Rain
Zoe - Sunshine On A Rainy Day (single remix)
Madonna - I Want You
N-Joi - Anthem

It really depends on my mood but I'd hazard a guess that this little lot would class as "most likely to appear in my Top 5 the most times"
 
Whilst noting that this whole concept is inherently ludicrous, strong contenders, in alphabetical order, would be:-

Arcade Fire - Rebellion (Lies)
Brainbug - Nightmare (Sinister Strings Remix)
The Cardigans - Communication
Drugstore -Song for the Lonely
Kirsty MacColl- Days
 
In no particular order, and subject to change

Chromatics - Cherry
Stina Nordenstam - Little Star
Sade - I Couldn't Love You More
Massive Attack - Unfinished Sympathy
Soul Capsule - Lady Science (NYC Sunrise)

Keep On Movin’ almost made my top 5!!! Just a perfect timeless song. Amazing groove, 10/10 vocals and harmonies and lots of really emotive ebs and flow but with ultimately the same BACKBONE from start to end. Effortless, chic song.

Yellow is the colour of SUN RAYS!

DAMN. This is SO hard. I want to do a top 100 but it’s a probably a bit indulgent.

I mean PERHAPS.

Whatever I’m extending my list

06. Soul II Soul - Keep on Movin’
07. Sault - Wildfires
08. Frank Ocean - Godspeed
09. Fiona Apple - Every Single Night
10. Gloworm - Carry Me Home

Wait, my top 5 songs of anything EVER?

This has also fully consumed me and I'm resisting the urge to post a full top fifty just so it's out of my brain and I can resume some semblance of a normal life.
 
That Richard Youngs song really kills the playlist! :D

If you want to swap it out for Massive Attack's "Protection", feel free.
 
Another 5 for today:

Kate Bush - Running up that hill
Prince - When doves cry
Fleetwood Mac - Dreams
Mike Oldfield - Moonlight shadow
Carly Simon - Coming around again
 
I’m as basic as the day is long, but these are bangers for the ages.

Britney Spears - …Baby, One More Time
All Saints - Pure Shores
Madonna - Like a Prayer
ABBA - Dancing Queen
Steps - Last Thing on my Mind

ABBA and Steps (and possibly Britney) there’s actually about ten of each that I could interchange but it’s quite hard to fully decide after decades of liking them and favourites changing throughout the years.

Here’s songs that keep appearing on my Spotify ”On Repeat” playlist year after year:

Carly Rae Jepsen - Run Away With Me
A-Ha - The Sun Always Shines on TV
Neneh Cherry - Buffalo Stance
Livin Joy - Dreamer
Diplo - Be Right There
 
It's an impossible task but I think these are songs that if I encounter them in the wild, I will always let out a gay shriek

Frozen - Madonna
Genie in a Bottle - Christina Aguilera
Babylon - Lady Gaga
Always Be My Baby - Mariah Carey
Lay All Your Love On Me - ABBA
 
Omg I live for nonsense like this. There was this time when I was a Covid refugee stuck in Cambodia and I had nothing to do so came up with my top HUNDRED and did a grandiose countdown on Facebook of all things. What mad times. I'm sure that list would look fairly different now, but the top five will always be the same:

'Born to Run' - Bruce Springsteen
'When Doves Cry' - Prince
'A Change Is Gonna Come' - Sam Cooke
'Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space' - Spiritualized
'Heroes' - David Bowie

I was metres from the front when Bruce performed 'Born to Run' live at Wembley a few days ago and I promptly BAWLED MY EYES OUT because I'm fucking ridiculous.

Also love looking at others' lists! Much to shout-out but @untilted 'Sinnerman' is in my all-time top ten <3 and @jivafox I dunno why but I love that 'Rush Hour' is your fave song ever. I only discovered it last year but what an unheralded gem!
