"First" threads are more interesting. In principle at least, they involve a question with an answer out there waiting to be found.

At least "my favourite" rather than "the best" is honest about being purely subjective, and it can help throw up good stuff that you might otherwise miss.

What might be quite interesting in that line might be to see some people's "Desert Island Discs" choice.

Maybe this thread belongs above the line? Though I suppose you get listing threads about stuff other than music.
