Of course, Another Girl Another Planet (by The Only Ones, not the terrible Babyshambles cover) is another I'd choose. And then there's Teenage Kicks, Johnny Was, No Woman No Cry, West One (Shine On Me), One, Under Pressure, Golden Touch, Smells Like Teen Spirit, Where D'you Think You're Going (an album track, but never mind), Better The Devil You Know................

There's not just one, there are hundreds I could choose. Probably could get it down to 25-30, but even then it's very difficult.

No. I just love it. Never tire of hearing it. Just think it's a special piece of music.

Radiohead - Karma Police is a joint fave for me.

We should do it by genre really as I agree with Freak, far too many to choose

I'm with freak, it's difficult to choose, but for sheer hair-standing-up-on-the-back-of-your-neck music, the hands down winner has to be

Dire Straits - Telegraph Road (the full live version from alchemy, not the apalling abreviated one you hear on the radio)

Joe Satriani - Always with me always with you should get a mention as well I think.

Hello

Both versions are sung by Rufus Wainright as far as I know? I'm off to check the DVD! But the soundtrack list (from http://www.shrek.com) is:
