Dolittle - Pixies
Ladies and Gentleman We're Floating in Space - Spiritualised
Meat is Murder - The Smiths
Magical Mystery Tour - The Beatles (US Album version) |

It closes The Social Network which I've just watched tonight with my son. Its perfect. "
It's up there with "rain" as one of the Beatles hidden classics |
