Blue Jean by David Bowie – Great song and I love the music video. Bowie is so cool
Just Like Honey by Jesus and Mary Chain
Where did our love by Soft Cell – I think this cover was originally only released with Tainted Love, but for my money, its a better song

Check out the article Bonuses are gone, Cristal is corked on the Globe and Mail website,

When I left in the first quarter of 2007, we just had a great year and bonuses were good (well by HSBC standards), however people were nervous about the year ahead. The economy was weakening a bit, credit markets were softening and people were wondering how they would meet revenue targets based off of the great year we just had. I doubt they had any idea how bad it would get… so glad I got out.
