5 AC/DC : Problem Child
So I was sitting in the car with my mom and she yelled "READY TO ROCK OUT?!" She then played this and attempted to serenade me while going 90 on the highway. I nearly died.

10 Badly Drawn Boy : Fall in a River
Longest instrumental intro ever. Not so much, it's only a minute, but the song is only two minutes. It's so whiny that it becomes a guilty pleasure.

11 Nick Drake : River Man
I've always loved Nick Drake's voice. Garden State made his voice more commonly known and most songs sound extremely similar so you can assume how it sounds...
