You've been captured by Hispanic pirates, you're on a new Airbus and there's a copy of every music CD ever made in there with you... The mean looking one, with the moustache and the ancient gun says "Hey hombre, you got forrrty seconds to choose five cd's, then we drop you on that tinnnnny little island down there"
My question to you was "What would you choose" (And Glen, I've not played a CD in a while either, but play along OK)
Here's some of the replies...
3LeggedThing would take
1. Led Zep II 2. Dark Side of the Moon 3. Meteora 4. The Real Thing - Faith No More 5. Val Doonican
...and lunch and a raft
PedroKid would take...
1. Gunners Appetite for Destruction 2. DJ Yoda - How to cut and paste Pt2 3. Metallica's Black Album 4. RHCP Blood Sugar Sex Magic 5. Fatboy Slim We've come a long way baby
Dangennoe would swipe
1. Miles Davis Kind of Blue (class!) 2. INSPIRACIÓN · ESPIRACIÓN - Gotan Project 3. LA REVANCHA DEL TANGO - Gotan Project 4. Prince "The Hits" 5. The soundtrack to the 1965 film "The ipcress file"

1. Simon & Garfunkel – Bridge Over Troubled Water
Nicktheguitar would jump out with...
1. BNL Gordon 2. Blur Parklife 3. Air Moon Safari 4. Presidents of the United States of America of the same title 5. I get to choose this one, so I'd say Live Rust - Neil Young
Jesperjack wanders around the plane and grabs...
1. NIN The Fragile 2. Buried Inside Chronoclast 3. Brian Eno Music for Airports 4. and two more that I can choose... Metallica Ride the Lightning 5. ...and David Sylvian Secrets of the Beehive

MizzBan get into it with...
1. Prince - Purple Rain 2. Counting Crows - August and Everything After 3. PJ Harvey - Stories from the City (and the sea!) 4. and a slab of indecision which means I get to choose! Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here 5. Pearl Jam - Ten
So, what does all this mean? It means absolutely nothing, but, if we all got trapped on an Island together, we'd have an awesome selection of music to listen to! All of the people above are clearly very cool and you should follow each of them on Twitter - I've linked them all up.
If I've stuffed any album names, that happens.
Happy Follow Friday!
