    Gouge Away by The Pixies at the end of Doolittle, a song which summed up perfectly what the band were about

    In this sort of topics it's time to brag about my favourites Placebo

    For three albums long they had the concept of a last song, then 10 minutes of silence, then followed by a "hidden track". Very clever as it leaves you with temptation and excitement for another 10 minutes while the CD should be over really, and two songs on one-track-of-22-minutes scares of mp3 rippers and copyers

    My favourite song of all time, "Burger queen" is the closing track of Without You I'm Nothing, the regular closing one that is. Brilliant song, very melancholic and sad, then 10 minutes of silence, and then the hidden track "Evil dildo" which is basically a stalker's message from Brian Molko's answering machine that they put music on... Brilliant




    My other favourite band Echo & The Bunnymen had the magical epic "Ocean rain" as last song on the Ocean Rain album, they still have "Ocean Rain" as final encore at concerts nowadays.
    Then at Evergreen album they had "Forgiven" as last track, a very nice ballad...




    Other nice "last songs":



    Heather Nova - Just been born / South
    Marilyn Manson - Coma White (+ hidden track) / Mechanical Animals
    Marilyn Manson - man that you fear (+ hidden track) / Antichrist Superstar
    U2 - All I want is you / Best Of 1980-90
    Dido - Take my hand / No Angel




    By the way, what do you lads think of "saving the best for last" ? Is it a good idea to close the album with a cracker song, or -what some artists do- keep a very good song for the last spot but one, then to close the album with a sort of "outro" song ?

    I agree with a lot of the above - no point repeating them. Others i like are:

    Just cos they're recent probably...
    Mylo - Emotion 98.6/Detroy Rock & Roll
    The Chemical Brothers - Surface to Air/Push The Button (agree on the others also)
    Just comes to mind...
    The Verve - Come On/Urban Hymns
    "I don’t want to tempt fate, but Thierry Henry is not having one of his best nights." - RTE co-commentator Jim Beglin, minutes before TH struck the stunning winner.
