I'm going to have to think about this, but I can say that no.1 is The Jam's 'Tube Station'.

The Kiss - Judee Sill
A Day In The Life - Beatles

[stonerblue]

Narrowed mine down to 1 tune per artist as its proving almost impossible to do otherwise.
Fisherman's Blues _ waterboys
Tears of a clown _ smokie and his miracles.
Debaser _ pixies
Stella _ jam and spoon.
Every day is like Sunday _ morrisey
Seven days is too long _ chuck wood
Dark train _ underworld.
Pair of brown eyes _ pogues
When you're young _ the jam
She bangs the drum _ stone roses

Reached 10 in 5mins. Gonna need a bigger list....

 

[doffer]

The Jam - Down In The Tube Station At Midnight
Wah! - The Story Of The Blues
The Clash - London Calling
Secret Affair - Glory Boys
U2 - Acrobat
Buzzcocks - Ever Fallen In Love
The Stranglers - Down In The Sewer
Aimee Mann - The Moth
The Jam - 'A' Bomb In Wardour Street
Elvis Presley - Blue Moon Of Kentucky

To be honest, it could quite easily been ten Jam songs.
