    Stone Roses, looks like it will be a walk in the park.

    forgotten how good a song Nightswimming is. Had to go for Stone Roses. REM must go through in second - far superior album to Oasis.
    I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.

    Has been a favourite of mine since the album was released alright. I remember being down the local arcade/pool hall (The Vic for all those from Limerick), aged 12 and constantly pumping 50p into the jukebox to play this and Altern 8's Evapor 8, good times

    That was you?? You weren't the guy who played the entire Black album every saturday night in Quinn's, were you?

    Anyway, went with What's the Story, close call with Stone Roses

    Not me chief, I wouldn't put one track off Black on in Quinns lest the muppets get too excited

    The old jukebox in Quinns though, down where they put the non smoking section for a while had some quality albums on it

    REM for me, with Outkast as a close second. Relieved that it's the Stone Roses, not another choice winning though...
    That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.

    Help me, Arthur Murphy, you're my only hope!
