What are your Top 5 PJ songs to play on your respective instrument?

For me it's acoustic guitar.

In no particular order:
1. Present Tense
2. SOLAT
3. Small Town
4. Immortality
5. Inside Job

EDIT: Ahh too hard, gotta add 3 more-- W.M.A. (thanks Lee M!), Wishlist is up there, and just learned Parting Ways, which I'm sure I'll be obsessed with playing for the next few weeks :D

    The human race is the most stupid and unfair kind of race. A lot of the runners don't even get decent sneakers or clean drinking water.

    Some runners are born with a massive head start, every possible help along the way and still the referees seem to be on their side.

    It's not surprising a lot of people have given up competing altogether and gone to sit in the grandstand, eat junk and shout abuse.

    What the human race needs is a lot more streakers.
