Manics Top 50s - 11th July 2013

Below are the early birds!  The first contributors to the Manics top 50, finishing their chart on 11th July.  All debate and comments encouraged, either here or on Twitter!  The additional chart at the end of each person's selection simply summarises the number of entries from each era (i.e. a Generation Terrorists album track or B-side to one of its singles is counted against GT etc.  You guessed that though, didn't you...).
