718:
"All Must Go To Sleep" by Pat Ortman.

This song is perfect for now- it's political, but not overtly. I'd call it a wake up call for our times, an anthem in other words.

Whoever put 'Mogwai Fear Satan' so far down on this list should be ashamed of himself! That should at least be in the top 100.

I thought we agreed that the list was not in any specific order. That way, when there are 10 spots left and 100 of us trying to get in our favorite song, we won't have to go into the negative numbers :P

We could somehow rank the list when it was fully compiled.

Maybe like the college sports rankings where we each submit the list, from 1000-1 with 1000 being the best, Then points are added, and then ranked or something incredibly confusing and labor intensive like that!
