Tracks to sample - The whole album, seriously. It's one of those rare ones where every single track is in the right place, and contributes to the sound as a whole - picking out individual songs would be akin to sacrilege. If I had to pick a favourite track it would be Crown of Love, but I doubt it would even sound that good isolated from the rest of the album.

I'd disagree about Crown of Love (i'd go with Laika myself), and I wouldn't say it's the best album of, well, any particular period of time, but otherwise Noddy here is bang on the money. Excellent, excellent album.
