the top ten mogwai songs

"It's funny that we ever wrote 10 songs, never mind 10 ones that people liked"
                                                                                                                     - Stuart Braithwaite

This whole thing started when John Coburn e-mailed me suggesting it would be interesting to discover which were the favourite Mogwai songs. And for a year people sent in their favourite three songs and John tirelessly tallied up all the votes and every now and again we posted them up here. So here are the final results of 12 months of voting - these are the world's favourite Mogwai songs as of March 2000.
