Some nice varity going on in that soundtrack! A good strong ending with the Smiths, and a bit of classic Garbage too I like it! You probably got the best era of SP covered too. Which Patti Smith Album is that track off?

Well yours gets my love just for ending with "Rebel Rebel" That is a rockin' close to anything!🙂

Nice mix of genres going on too. Oddly I find LDR quite underrated.

Its hard to remember now, but No Doubt were actually a half decent pop group at one point. I think Spiderwebs was maybe the start of their decline.

Really U2? I think we can do better than that?😱
