A summer night in Durham is always a good night

Old Elvet is my area!

A summer night in Durham is always a good night

Old Elvet is my area!

I have lived in Lincolnshire for close to 30 years now but Durham will always feel like home. I passed my driving test in the City. Remember the policeman in his box in the Market Place?

Christ it's hard to pick one song but after a bit of consideration I think it would probably be Unfinished Symphony by Massive Attack

[Pondrew]

I just died in your arms tonight - The cutting crew
Black magic woman - Santana
Summer of 69 - Bryan Adams

If we are now making lists (which it seems we are!), then the first and last ones of those would be in my top twenty aswell TBH.

Maybe it's because I'm part Welsh!

Cutting crew is my favourite

One track is impossible

Obviously! :roll:

The thread title is 'favourite song of all time', not 'every song you've ever heard'!

Depeche Mode - Enjoy the Silence
Genesis - Follow You Follow Me
Jon & Vangelis - I’ll find my way home
Peter Gabriel - In your eyes

But those would be in my list to be honest; especially the last two.

[ref]Pondrew[/ref], Given I have a few thousand go to tracks, trying to pick, one or ten is impossible

and thank technology for Spotify, Apple Music & Tidal et al

That scene with John Cusack with the ghetto blaster over his head playing Peter Gabriel, awesome.
