Cool

My Top 5 would be;
  1. "Stairway to Heaven" Led Zeppelin
  2. "Dust in the Wind" Kansas
  3. "Me and My Arrow" Harry Nilsson (In the Land of Point, where there is no point at all! Classic)
  4. "Songs of the Quendi" Sally Oldfield (ask ngcles The Observologist.)
  5. "The Flat Earth" Thomas Dolby

And the least meaningful is Plastic Bertrand "Ca Plane Pour Moi" - "This works for me" (or something like that!). Especially love the first lyrics which translated into English is;

"Wham bam, my cat Splash
is rolling around on my bed. He swallowed
his tongue as he drank all my whisky
As for me, I've hardly slept, I feel empty and reprimanded
I had to sleep in the gutter,
where I had a flash of inspiration
Oooo-ooo-ooo-ooo!
In four colours..
."

Oh dear! (better in French!)
Much too deep for me, but there you go!
