1. Sunny Afternoon, yes, obvious choice is obvious but I don't care
2. All Day and All of the Night
3. Dead End Street
4. You Really Got Me
5. Apeman
6. Dedicated Follower of Fashion
7. Celluloid Heroes
8. Come Dancing
9. Lola
10. David Watts (I don't know if anyone on here likes the Molesworth books, but it is basically Grabber's theme tune)

This is hard.
