Lyrics

Heard there was a poll about the nation's favourite lyrics or some such. Anyhow, missed that one so ' any nominations? I'd say 'favourite' rather than 'best' cos. best takes too much effort.

I'd nominate (in no particular order):

1. New England ' Billy Bragg
2. Cleaning out my closet ' Eminem.
3. Alison - Elvis Costello
4. Mass Destruction - Faithless
5. Seventeen ' Janis Ian (yeah I know)

Honorary mentions for anything by Kirsty McCall or Arctic Monkeys.

Yes, definitely Common People - been wracking my brains (a bit) over this one, but CP has gotta be my fave. And, of course, 'Close (to the Edit)' by the Art of Noise. :-) * P * :-)
