I could never pick a favourite song. I couldn't even pick a favourite album or artist. Top 10, maybe, but certainly nothing fewer.

However I can tell you that I love a little bit of the Manic Street Preachers and Your Love Alone Is Not Enough is probably my favourite.

I used to hate this song because it depressed me but I kind of like it now: Cat Stevens - (Remember the Days of the) Old School Yard

And this last one has a story to go along with it. In preschool we had a "show and tell" where we had to sing our favourite song. So a bunch of 4 year olds sang their favourite nursery rhymes. Then long haired and adorable four-year-old Dak gets up and sings this. Much of the point is... lost on me, we'll say, but doesn't make it any less of a powerful song.

And here, as a bonus prize, another song I remember from my childhood.
