Oh, yes, I also forgot about Kraftwerk. sad
But I have no place in the list, top 40 are complete, you can later send updated and added a full list.
Or 25 - your lucky number? ((:
I remember that your collection of the greatest songs of David consisted of 25 songs
too.

You're right, 25! I hadn't though about it. It's a nice number, isn't it? biggrin

Yeah, 2+5 = 7 in total, my favorite number ever! lol

But if you decide to supplement your list to 40 songs, always welcome! smile
