IYFS holds a dear place in my heart for very sentimental reasons. Every song takes me to a different place in my life and every listen is like a trip down memory lane.
Oh, not to be getting me wrong, it's a fantastic album (all of theirs are, IMHO).

'Give Up' was my equivalent of IYFS, then.

Whatever. B&S and The Postal Service don't even compare to Tori Amos for sheer pusstitude.

Maybe it's just me but all songs sung by Nico make me want to gouge my eyes out! Meh.

Do to memory problems, I'm only going to list the ones that immediately spring to mind, ie: the ones I've listened to in the past few months.

Arcade Fire - Funeral
Rufus Wainwright - Want 1 or Poses
Devendra Banhart - Nina Roja
Ms Dynamite - A Little Deeper
And many other artists that I can't remember the name of their albums, Thievery Corporation, Cinematic Orchestra, etc.

I've really been getting into Cripple Crow recently. It took me a few listens to really appreciate it...

I always skip through most of the tracks of that one actually...
Lemme guess, self-made mix cds don't count? If yes, I'll post the track listing 😉
Normal cds:
-Alanis Morissette: Jagged Little Pill, Supposed former infatuation Junkie (depending on if I'm in the mood), So-Called Chaos.
-Aerosmith: Oh, Yeah! - Ultimate Aerosmith Hits
-Dire Straits: On E Relish
-Metallica: Live with the San Francisco Orchestra
-Supertramp: Breakfast in America
I mean no mix cd's, that is correct. Possibly Greatest Hits and the like shouldn't count either...

Edit, on going through my CD collection, and listening to Songs for the Deaf, I realise I have to eliminate that one from my list, and add:

AC/DC: Back in Black
Metallica: The Black Album
Muse: Origin of symmetry
Alkaline Trio: From here to Infirmary
Chris Rea: The Road to Hell
Guns 'n' Roses: Appetite for Destruction

Edit 2: I suppose no Film Soundtracks too, as I wanted to specify a set of songs made by a single band as an album.
