Your 5 favourite Terence Trent D'Arby/Sananda Maitreya songs

Just really digging this artist at the moment, he really is a clever guy and an accomplished musician. Real musical talent, piano player and a beautiful voice. But what are his 5 greatest songs he has done you think? (There are so many to choose from). Mine are

1. Let Her Down easy, Seriously this is so good it makes my hairs stand on end, give me goosebumps and nearly reduces me to tears when I hear it (And I am gay - yet the lyrics couldn't be much straighter)

2. Holding on to you, Another orger mentioned this song a while ago, when I was a bit skeptical after all these years, getting into it again, the lyrics, musical performance and the voice are beyond compare (This is Adore quality). I really should have listened to all of Vibrator.

3. O'Divina, Its just amazing to see such an upbeat and positive song from the more mature Sananda Maitreya (But then he again he's always kind of sounded like Prince's level headed little brother with more maturity). I can just get into this song totally and it has a great video too, with white rooms, white pianos and beautiful women - WOW!

4. Sign your name, Yes I know its a hit and every fair weather TTD/SM fan would have got into it, but why was it such a big hit - because it was a near perfect song thats why. Again superb video and he really gets into the emotion of all, it is sung with such conviction.

5. Johnny don't fall, ok I could have chosen other songs, but the content and the beat, along with a thought provoking video made me choose this, its just such a sad song, that it works in every way. Also you have to say at least one good thing about the "Neither Flesh or Fish album"

Highly Commended: Delicate because.....
