Disc 3, track 11: her duet with Evan Dando of Lou Reed's "Perfect Day". It's the first track on the mix-CD I made of my absolutely favourite songs. I also melt when I hear her singing the Kinks' "Days". What a wonderful singer, such a great loss.

Or pretty much anything from Kite; a fantastic album full of fantastic songwriting. ("He looked into my eyes just as an airplane roared above / said something about football, but he never mentioned love" was always one of my favourite couplets, as was "the boots just go back on / the socks that had stayed on / the next time they see you they treat you like dirt".)

And Fairytale of New York is worth it just for the vitriol alone: "Merry Christmas, you arse, I pray God it's our last".
