150 Favourite Songs

As this is (going to be) a music blog, a good place to start seems to be my 150 favourite songs...A difficult decision!
The first 6 are equal to one another, as I really can't pick between them:
  1. Scatman's World//Scatman John
  2. When the Sun Goes Down//Arctic Monkeys
  3. Sell Out//The Levellers
  4. Rango//Catfish and the Bottlemen
  5. R U Mine?//Arctic Monkeys
  6. Lounge Act//Nirvana
Those 6 songs are long standing favourites, which I can guarantee will cheer anyone up! They are definitely my go to songs for any occasion, and Rango and When the Sun Goes Down are my personal recommendations for post-exam cheer ups!
The next 144 are all favourites (in no particular order). I have chosen them without looking at my albums/phone music library, so they are simply the ones which come into my head when I think about music I love. They are equal to one another; there is no way I could EVER prioritise these songs, but hopefully it will serve as a good introduction to the kind of music I obsess over. So, without further ado:
