Nick Hornby's debut novel High Fidelity was published 25 years ago this year, and Stephen Frears' equally-beloved movie adaptation was released 20 years ago in Arpil.
In the story, Rob Gordon and his co-workers' way of bringing some sort of order to a chaotic world is to make lists of everything and in this forum we will aim to do something similar.
A couple of examples of top 5s in the book/film are:
Top five recording artists:
Carly Simon
Carole King
