My top 15 songs

I love my music! I cannot live without music! Almost in everything I do, I have music playing in the background.
My first job when I get in my car-actually second, since I have to put the key in the ignition-is to turn the music on. When I take a shower, the music is on. There's nothing better than a good singalong when taking a shower, though my neighbours I'm sure will disagree.
But there are some songs that have become part of me, closely linked to good and bad memories alike. You will notice that of the songs I'm listing, most have sad, or even depressing lyrics. That's me! Even when I listen to music, I need to think!

1. Blue Monday - New Order
   My all time favourite song, of my all time favourite band!
   "How does it feel to treat me like you do?" - The story of my relationships
2. Shake the Disease - Depeche Mode
   "...you know how hard it is for me to shake the disease
   that takes hold of my tongue in situations like these..." - I asked my first love to go out with me by playing this song on her walkman. I was too scared to ask!
3. Diamonds and Rust - Judas Priest
   Yeah, I know it's a Joan Baez song, but I prefer the Priest version.
   "...yes we both know what memories can bring,
   they bring diamonds and rust..."
4. Touched By The Hand Of God - New Order
   "...and now I'm down here all alone, with every feeling that I own,
   you can't take that away..." - what can I say?
5. Subculture - New Order
   "...what do I get out of this?
   I always try. I always miss..." - Applicable on many periods of my life!
6. Heart - Pet Shop Boys
   "...if I didn't love you, I would look around for someone else,
   but every time I see you, you have the same effect.
   My heart starts missing a beat!" - For my certain someone
7. Comfortably Numb - Pink Floyd
   "...when I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse out of the corner of my eye.
   I turned to look, but it was gone. I can not put my finger on it now..." - It always brings tears to my eyes. The solo guitar at the end goes through to my bones!
8. Appetite - Prefab Sprout
   "...I don't want to sell you lies,
   I only mean to do you right..." - That's me!
9. What Difference Does It Make - The Smiths
   "...heavy words are so lightly thrown..." - For all my ex's.
10. Landing in London -3 Doors Down
    "...and all these days I spend away,
    I'll make up for it. I swear!..." - reminds me of my girl! (I always keep my word)
11. Take It Easy - Eagles
    "...don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy..."
12. Missing - Everything But The Girl
    "...and I miss you, like the desserts miss the rain..."
13. P.S. -James
    "...You're falling, you're falling, falling from your god-like distance.
    You're fashion, just fashion, fashion doesn't keep.
    You're sour, so sour, all is hope and trust is misplaced.
    You're sour, now you are alone..." - I was playing this song when I resigned from my previous job
14. Five-O - James
    "...if it lasts forever, hope I'm the first to die..."
    "...are you here for the party, or are you here for the pain?..."
15. Alaskan Pipeline - James
    "...oh, you say life's so unfair,
    ooh, you can ill afford to hold to this views,
    ooh, you need something to blame.
    But it's you! It's your truth!" - Helped me through so many difficult times!
