How Stars Were Discovered

1. See Emily Play - Pink Floyd.
Third single from Pink Floyd. The slide guitar on the record was apparently done with a Zippo lighter.

2. My Sarah - Thin Lizzy.
An unusually slow number from the rock legends.

3. Oh Ellen - Gob
Not the most romantic band but it's a unique song for a unique name.

4. Dizzy Miss Lizzie - Larry Williams.
Written and performed by Larry Williams in 1958 but later covered by numerous artists including, most famously, The Beatles.

5. What Katie Did - The Libertines.
Sang by Indie rockers The Libertines on their second album The Libertines. Suprisingly good.

6. Laura - Billy Joel.
OK, he does swear in it - but it is a great song.

7. Ruby - Kaiser Chiefs
The catchiest song for years making it great value for money. Hear it at 3 you'll still be singing it at 10!.

8. Alison - Elvis Costello
Great song with some of the best lyrics ever written. However, probably a bit bitter for a love song!

9. Song For Whoever - Beautiful South
For those with girlfriends who have ridiculous names, or those who want to increase their chances. The song for whoever covers a number of girls: "Jennifer, Alison, Phillipa, Sue, Deborah, Annabelle too!"
