Great List Wezzo!
Thanks!
I made the decision to finally bump Springsteen ahead of R.E.M.... tough call.
aye i have to say i'm suprised over that choice, but i guess because i don't know Springsteen's work , i haven't got that to compare with
i'm glad you used "Go Home" as an example of BNL's finest moments , i love the lyrics in that song
