Couple of openers
Farewell Transmission by Songs: Ohia, strange title for an opener but still brill.
Panda by Dungen, bring your own wig.
Couple of closers
Looking Glass by The La's
Alaskan Pipeline by James which not only closed 'Pleased To Meet You' but at the time looked to be their last track on their last album...then they reformed and sort of ruined it. -

Only album s left now and "Spider and I" is already on another thread!
I was looking for the album that Ultravox's "My Sex" is on, starting with "Systems of Romance" and going back to "Ha! Ha! Ha!", but this haunting, beautiful tune is from the 1976 debut album "Ultravox!" - from the year BEFORE X Ray Spex!
It's a cracker - not only because it is the only song I know containing the word "overspill"... -

I think the word "overspill" also appears in "Parachute woman" by The Rolling Stones. I could be wrong.

There's also the "Stevenage overspill that we'd kill to live around" mentioned in 'Maladjusted' by Morrissey.
It's probably a tad late to suggest 'Rain' by Martin Stephenson and the Daintees (from 'Boat To Bolivia') now...
