Also new and starting off here.

GT - Love's Sweet Exile
GATS - From Despair To Where
THB - Yes, but a close tie with about 3 other tracks
EMG - Small Black Flowers That Grow in the Sky
TIMTTMY - If You Tolerate This
KYE - Intravenous Agnostic
LB - Empty Souls
SATT - Indian Summer... or YLAINE, sorry to say
JFPL - Peeled Apples, closely followed by Bag Lady and Doors Closing Slowly
PFAYM - Postcards from a Young Man

Really tricky on all of them I think, except TIMT, which I despise as entirely as some people do SATT. And PFAYM simply because I haven't listened to the entire thing.

I can only comment honestly on the ones I already own.

GT - Motorcycle Emptiness
GATS - Sleepflower
THB - 4st7lb
KYE - Freedom of Speech Won't Save My Children
JFPL - All is Vanity, tying close with Doors Closing Slowly
PFAYM - Some Kind of Nothingness

I don't have 'This is my Truth...' yet, but I think it needs to be said that 'If you tolerate this your children will be next' is one of the most important songs in my life. If I had to choose one Manics song to live with for the rest of my life this would be it.

Edit: I changed my PFAYM choice to SKON, because as much as I'd admit it's not a very good song it's got a lot of personal resonance. I had a friend who went missing too, but in my case we found the body. There's a lot in SKON that I can relate to.

EMG - Design For Life
TIMTTMY - Nobody Loved You
KYE - Found That Soul
LB - 1985

List could change tomorrow, but Lifeblood, Journal and The Holy Bible were bloody hard to pick from. As was the choice between Motorcycle Emptiness and Stay Beautiful. List changing even as the reply is posted.
