And here is the difficulty, if I produced a list (which self confessed I can't), quite rightly you would all immediately point out that I had missed out such and such.An oversight on NY: I meant to put Like a Hurricane or Hey Hey My My in. Problem is that there's a load os songs that I like equally as much as songs in the 100; especially the latter part of the list.
Rory wouldn't make it even if I just chose songs by 100 different acts but if I did a list of the 100 best live acts I've seen, Rory would feature.
