Favourite songs

Ken, a work colleague, said that there had been a recent discussion about peoples' top ten favourite songs. I thought that sounded like an interesting challenge. So at the risk of saving a few fairly fickle favourites forever, here is what I came up with (in roughly chronological order, rather than order of preference).

1. Pange Lingua (Gregorian)
2. Beatus Vir (Monteverdi)
3. Schafen können sicher weiden (Bach)
4. Nacht und Träume (Schubert)
5. Im Abendrot (Richard Strauss)
6. Come away, death (Quilter)
7. I've got you under my skin (as sung by Diana Krall)
8. Somewhere (Berstein)
9. Baby Grand (Joel)
10. Chili con carne (Real Group)

Perhaps these would be my "desert island discs", rather than absolute favourites. I do like some variety, even if I do listen to those Four Last Songs (Strauss) enough to bore my family.
