11. Arcade Fire: 'Wake Up' (2005) - Epic is not even close to covering this. A Godsend for all TV producers looking for an appropriately massive song to soundtrack the emotional peak of their programme, this prime cut from the sublime 'Funeral' album is a soaring and rousing piece of music that would cause a stir in the coldest of hearts. Win Butler et al came entirely out of leftfield with their début album, but with songs like this on it you understand why it is already considered a classic.
40 of 50
- What about Stronger by Kanye West?
- That was a Daft Punk song with some crappy lyrics over it.
- F#ck off with all your Radiohead!!!
- Well deserved Idioteque first place. That song never gets old, truly fantastic and inovative, even almost ten years later. Reckoner - from In Rainbows - deserved to be in the top 10 IMO. And great to see Seven Nation Army on the list, great song.
- Yay for Midlake's Roscoe!! SUCH a great song.
