This MAY change for some once Wonky is released (it may not).
For me, this is always in flux. But here goes:
1 - P.E.T.R.O.L [wipeout Version]
2 - Remind
3 - Attached
4 - T.G.W.T.S.I.H.H
5 - Know Where To Run

I know that's technically 10 but those top 5 are my favs. And I am eagerly waiting to see if anything from the new album will make it into the top ten or even better the top five!!! From Loopz's review I am getting excited about Distractions/Stringy Acid/Where Is It Going?.

if you place a gun to my head, i will not be able to choose just 5

but top 12-15 should be possible..
The Girl With The Sun In Her Head
What Was That?
Semi-Detached
The Box (sorry, cant choose one, so its all the versions from ep and In Sides together..)
Lush3/Impact/Remind (cant choose which one, coz all of them are just splendid and i like them as an unbreakable, unseparatible trio on the Brown Album)
Dwr Budr
Out There Somewhere?
Desert Storm
Halcyon+On+On (thx to that track on Mortal Kombat soundtrack in 1995 i got wholy into Orbital and they placed The Prodigy from my throne of favorites

)

I was waiting see if any would get in there
Oh and the Wonky and Where is it Going? fadeouts don't bother me as much now

Wonky maybe not so much now but most certainly Where Is It Going needs a longer ending to breakdown the tune and finish it. It's too epic to just "stop" like that.

It's a tough ask, but:
The Girl With The Sun In Her Head (really hoping to hear this live on the next tour)
Impact (especially the USA version)
Out There Somewhere (FANTASTIC opener from the 2009 tour - you could feel it rattling the floor in Manchester!)
One Perfect Sunrise (Somehow really melancholy AND really euphoric! Great way to say goodbye... But so glad they came back!)
Times Fly (At the time, this seemed like a nice bridge between Snivillisation and In Sides - I love The Tranquilizer too)
Lush and Remind wouldn't be far behind - that whole section from the Brown Album's just mind blowing!
