Just put together a little compilation of your favorite songs by track number. What I mean is that song number one must be the first song on its original album, and song two (not Blur) must be track two on its album, etc.

Rulez:

You should have between 12-20 songs or it doesn't count (not that anyone's keeping score or anything, but this is to distinguish between no effort and too much effort).

No two songs from the same album on which they originally appeared.

You can have as many album closers as you want, but the last one on your list HAS to be an album closer. It's completely arbitrary but what the hell, you kids need structure :mad:

I'll post mine later, unless I think you're doing it wrong in which case I'll show you what I want

I'll do one in a minute maybe. Whenever I want to put together a quick collection of songs, I usually do it by the numbers.

Okay so this thread doesn't look so empty, I'll make a quick one based on what I like lately:

1. Sonic Youth - Teenage Riot
2. Television - Venus
3. Minus the Bear - Drilling
4. The Jesus Lizard - Slave Ship
5. Pixies - Holiday Song
6. Pavement - Zurich Is Stained
7. The Replacements - Bastards of Young
8. Sun Kil Moon - Duk Koo Kim
9. Red House Painters - New Jersey
10. The Dismemberment Plan - The Other Side
11. Husker Du - Books About UFOs
12. Fugazi - Lockdown
13. Nomeansno - I Am Wrong

This is hard because I really like a lot of 2's and 6's. Also that whole "must end on an album-ender" thing is stupid so you don't have to do it from now on if you dont wanna :)
