This was very hard to do. All I did was swap this song for that song until I couldn't do it any more. I came up with this but.......
1. This Years Girl
2. Beyond Belief
3. Deep, Dark Truthful Mirror
4. Sulky Girl
5. WIWC (Cruel Smile version)
6. The Other End of the Telescope
7. Big Tears
8. Radio, Radio
9. Imagination (Is A Powerful Deceiver)
10. I Wanna Be Loved
.......I would like to propose that we poll the ten LEAST favourite EC songs. A much easier task, for me, anyway. And I think that would be pretty interesting as well.
(Have you done this already?)

The least favourite shouldn't be too bad - all I'd have to do is dig out The Juliet Letters - I'm sure all 10 of them are on there!
And as far as 10 favourites is concerned - no chance. By the time I compile it, the new album will be out and there'll be some new ones!

Pip and Sulky......I totally agree. I hated trying to pick out ten favourite songs when there probably aren't even ten songs of Elvis' I dislike. (Actually that would be pretty easy by just saying Ana Solfie/For the Stars or whatever it was. But whatever it was, it was soooo awful.)
Maybe I could live with the top 25 favourite Elvis songs. After all the man's got an incredible catalogue.
