    Stone Roses - I wanna be adored. Actually also the live version of the Second Coming where it was the intro to Breaking into Heaven into the Adored

    Happy Mondays - Loose Fit (Perfecto Mix), with a spliff being sparked up as the opening....

    The Charlatans - Spronston Green - the live version

    U2 - Zoo Station

    I'll think further....
    If you attack me with stupidity, I'll be forced to defend myself with sarcasm.
