99 songs, 99 reasons -

Ninety-nine songs that I love. Some with rhyme and reason, some with stories, and many serendipitous discoveries amounting to this collection of sounds that are inked in to my every day being.

In no particular order, like a giant impractically sized round-table. In instalments. You're welcome.

Something strange starts to happen about two minutes in to this song. You'll have to listen to it to find out. The track is one of the many highlights of what was sadly their last album; I am actually grateful it was their last, too many bands re-unite for the sake of mediocrity. I often find the counter-melody that in invades this song swimming around my head during waking moments through the night time. if you've never ventured past Doolittle, Trompe Le Monde is not a bad place to continue on to. I don't have a favourite pixies song; they all keep grappling for first place.
