With much venom and rancour we could probably reduce it to about 50 tracks.  Though we would be hollow smouldering shells by then.  Why not settle for Spem In Alium and lie back and enjoy it?

Hi Libido
You live and learn ...never knew that Without You was written by the Badfinger guys
that committed suicide one of my all time Fav's. ...the Nilsson version.

Wiki..

Without You" is a song written by Pete Ham and Tom Evans of British rock group Badfinger, and first released on their 1970 album No Dice. The song has been recorded by over 180 artists,[1] and versions released as singles by Harry Nilsson (1971) and Mariah Carey (1994) became international best-sellers. Paul McCartney once described the ballad as "...the killer song of all time."[

Keep living, keep learning. 

Vague recollection Nilsson stole it from classical music.

Do recall he was obese and insane when he died.  We should be so lucky.

Pink Floyd's Comfortably Numb for me. Going to play this at my funeral; somehow seems appropriate

Could name 20 manic street preacher songs that are equal to anything ever written and lyrically light years infront of most mostly written by richey Edwards eventually killed himself and only abandoned car found at severn bridge,body has never been found.James dean Bradfield brings all the songs to life,heartbreaking gut wrenching vocals best guitarist/singer I've ever heard,how he fits all of Edwards lyrics into fit with his wide range of vocals is incredible..Just one of dozenz I could pick and even the poor quality of recordinh highlights bradfields different class..

Agree with Aspro 100% - cried my eyes out when I first heard 'Comfortably Numb' in 1977!
