The downside of the difital revolution - faced with a whole internet full of music I can never remember what I want to down load - so anybody got any ideas of what would be on their ideal summer song playlist?

Summery Songs? For Britain ? Well then, you'd have to have;

Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head.
Get Off My Cloud.
Purple Rain.
Riders On The Storm.
Blowing In The Wind.
Fog On The Tyne.
Ice Ice Baby.

Come on peeps, there must be more.
