If I had to fill out the rest of that top 5 right now off the top of my head, I'd probably go for I Pray, Ole, the Secret Life Of Arabia, No Control and Afraid...I could spend the better part of a day trying to be more precise about it though.
Your choices are certainly more obscure than mine. It's a trend for me that, even with artists whose discographies I know inside out, my favourite songs are almost always the hits. Nice pick on "Afraid"; that's another favourite of mine.

Great journal by the way, I'm really liking how off-kilter it all seems. Keep it up eh - I'll be keeping an eye on this one
Thanks, that means a lot, especially coming from someone who's been around as long as you have.
