    Yeah, cant view it for whatever reason about embedding. Is it sad I know the song from that one little clip?

    And for whoever mentioned Weezer song...listen to the Greatest Man That Ever Lived. Brilliant song.

    I didnt watch it but if you want this to be complete youll have to put the song of the winner of the x factor on this... :D

    Otherwise My Life - The Game featuring Lil Wayne adds a hip hop twang to it... It wont be a good cd if theres 20 tracks and 4 of them are by the Coronas... And Pork and Beans has been out for over a year...

    Ben Folds featuring Regina Spektor: You Don't Know Me


    Good song

    Jeez that Keane song is bloody awful. Contender for worst track of the year.

    Do you only want songs that made it to the mainstream?

    boards.ie must be acting up. It normally puts asterisks in for the word "sh*te", but in the above sentence it seems to have removed the word completely!!! :D:D

    It WAS in between the words "complete" and "youll", wasn't it ? This is a thread about music, after all.....

    Here's some Irish ones well worth inclusion:

    Neev - Gullible
    The Script - Before the Worst
    Dash - Giants
    Bailer - Sixteen Months
    Luan Parle - (almost anything from the album)
    Failing Earth - Mama

    Lol the irony of you slating an X-Factor song then naming one by The Script as being in the Top 20 of the Year is delicious.
