I think I covered all Genres.

What, no Stone Roses in the 90s section?

And I'd sub: "Love" for The Cult track; "Personal Jesus" or "Blasphemous Rumours" for Depeche Mode; "How Soon Is Now?" for The Smiths.

Also: wasn't "Human" from Chrissy Hynde released in the 90s, not 80s?

Also: "Solsbury Hill" is Peter Gabriel, solo; not Genesis. In fact, he wrote the song to *celebrate* his departure from Genesis.

But otherwise: outstanding song selection. I'd buy ALL of 'em.

I concur on the Special K! but *GHASP* on the absence of King Crimson, and I agree that a better Yes song should be chosen; I'd like to see close to the edge or starship trooper, but i think some would object to their length.

Peter Gabriel did Solsbury Hill as a solo artist, and not Genesis!

I would prefer the Van Halen cover of "You Really got me" over The Kinks's version, but that's just me.

Anyway, most of your list is very well picked. Good job, although I am rather disappointed that you picked Karma Police instead of Paranoid Android for Radiohead.

Yes- Owner of a Lonely Heart is from 1983, not the 70's

That's a pretty big pack there. I'd certainly buy a big chunk of it (mmmmm, London Calling).
