Blurred Lines is an excellent song/groove that has got under my skin too.

I have also just heard Dylan's 'Santa' - i really don't have the words........

Just been playing Yellow Brick Road, it would be one of my top sonds also.

Angus & Julia Stone are amazing. Saw them at Shepherds Bush a couple of years back and she played about 15 instruments. Truly talented...and then there are boy bands!

Funnily enough, loads of their tunes are now being sampled for dance tracks.

For me it has to be the discovery of Ane Brun thanks to Mac :)

It is hard to pick one track but this one is just spine tingling .

Difficult to pick one song as i listen to so much over a year, so on the basis of my iPod's 'Top 25 Played' list, my number one is currently Anathema - Untouchable Part 2.

And a song that makes me happy and sad at the same time...

The Perfect Life from Moby's Innocents album.

Thanks for them Joel, tastefully done, not what I was expecting at all... not sure Yello brick road worked that well though, the other two may even be an improvement!

They are the real ones rather than mixes

Lol!

They sure sound different... Big jet plane is slower, Yellow brick road vocals sound like they've been recorded in an echo chamber I guess they've been rearranged for Youtube.
