1. "yes, anastasia"

2. "horses"

3. "precious things"

4. "bells for her"

5. "iieee"

1. "Mohammed My Friend"

2. "Precious Things"

3. "Marianne"

4. "Putting The Damage On"

5. "Spark"

 

 

And a Smiths edition to go with:

 

1. "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out"

2. "Reel Around The Fountain"

3. "William, It Was Really Nothing"

4. "Girlfriend In A Coma"

5. "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now"

2. john coltrane, "ascension"

3. velvet underground, "sister ray"

4. peter brotzmann octet, "machine-gun"

5. beatles, "revolution 9"

'pele' is my favorite tori album, but i don't think it's got her greatest songs on it. 'pele' has it on consistency & overall sound, but i think most of her best-written stuff is on 'under the pink'.

1. When the Levee Breaks

2. No Quarter

3. That's the Way

4. In My Time of Dying

5. Babe I'm Gonna Leave You

 

There's about three other tracks that all could've been #4 or #5, but eh. Oh, and I didn't count the live version of "Dazed and Confused," either. That would've made #2 or #3 if I had, I'd imagine.

 

 

Ehh, and just for kicks, here's the Velvet Underground edition:

 

1. Heroin

2. Sister Ray

3. The Murder Mystery

4. Venus in Furs

5. Some Kinds of Love

 

"After Hours" should be on there by all means, but I just couldn't find a spot for it.
