Default indecisive

It's between "Moonage Daydream", "Panic In Detroit", and "The Man Who Sold The World" mmmmmmm...or...I'llsay...ohhh, "Rock n' Roll Suicide"

That was tough!

I am not a huge Elvis fan, but I guess I would say his version of "Mystery Train" is one favorite.

"Suspicious Minds" is pretty great also, in a totally different way.

OMG.

I'm partial to "Underground" from that soundtrack. I saw Labyrinth in the theater and, as a kid of seven or eight, being shocked that he sang "It hurts like hell."

PS: Your sig? Is giving me seizures, Mary!
