[Khamelion]

Thought this would be a semi serious topic, but when the OP adds Rick Ghastly in his top 5 I knew it had to be a joke topic.

 

[BROOKIE]

us and them - pink floyd
across the universe - the beatles
badge - cream
jailhouse rock - elvis

[Liverbirdie]

1. Ball of confusion - Temptations (not anything like there other stuff, apart from Psychadelic shack). Try it I never used to have a number 1, until I heard this.
2. Book of brilliant things (Live version) simple minds
3. She sells sanctuary - The Cult
4. The cutter - Echo and the Bunnymen
5. I dont know what it is but I love it - Chris Rea. For memories, I believe the LFC team were singing it in the tunnel before the teams came out when they played Roma in 1984, just before walking into the lions den. I believe some of the Roma players then visibly wilted.

Sorry but I'm really serious. I've loved that song since the first time I heard it. Got to be honest here, it's your five favourite songs, not "your five favourite that you think will be accepted by everyone else".

 

[SS2]

Just randomly pick any 5 songs from the Bon Scott era of AC/DC and that'll do for me.

 

[Tommo21]

A day in the life....the Beatles

The end...the Doors

Imagine......John Lennon.

Almost cut my hair....CSNY.

God only knows......the Beach Boys.

Colin Raye-If you get there before I do.
Dusty Springfield-Son of a preacher man
