The idea behind this, completely of my own making, is to pick my favourite opening track in my album collection, then my favourite second track, etc, all the way through to track X, being whatever is the last track on the longest album I have. This isn't an "ultimate album" - it isn't my top 12 tracks. Instead, rules for inclusion are that each artist can only have one track, and each track number has to be included, even if I don't particularly like any of the songs...


Let's get on with it.

01: Foo Fighters - All My Life (One by One)
I love the energy in this song. The lyrics meant a lot to me when I was going through a difficult part of my life, and listening to it now makes me feel good that I got through that.

02: Guillemots - Made-Up Lovesong #43 (Through The Windowpane)
This is musical art. All Guillemots songs, but particularly this one, seem to be crafted rather than just written. Fyfe's vocals towards the end of this song are brilliant.

03: Delays - Long Time Coming (Faded Seaside Glamour)
