You didn't...

But then I wouldn't have many of yours in mine

As you say, "opinions opinions" and that's all any of if it can be, unless it's top 50 bands by sales and then I suspect a lot of those would figure...

Here are 10 from me (some based on great live performances)

New Order/Joy Division (I don't think you can really separate them, personally)
The Clash
The Beatles
Franz Ferdinand
Rolling Stones
Editors
The Beat
ABC
The Beautiful South
Siouxsie and the Banshees

I suspect you won't agree with many of those either!
