So with these I'm open to suggestions. However to prevent some evil entries I'm going to require that all suggestions are seconded and thirded You can make no more than 5 suggestions per member.

it's not a perfect system but it's better than opening the floor to either:
- songs that charted the best, as this would include entries such as the X Factor Finalist charity covers, Cheryl Cole, Comic Relief singles or - letting tibb decide all entries themselves, since we'd just have 49 gaga demos and a few take that singles. I think this is the best way to include diversity, and, yes this sounds snobby, better songs.

nope, they can be album tracks. I'll ignore remixes unless they were released as singles (the R Kelly Ignition remix for example)
