Mine is "Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses" with 25 (I've only had my computer for a couple months)
 
Evidently it's the original leaked demo version of Coldplay's Talk.
 
1. Manic Street Preachers - Of Walking Abortion (56)
2. Muse - Thoughts Of A Dying Athiest
3. Manic Street Preachers - Faster
4. Radiohead - No Surprises
5. Radiohead - Just
 
1. City of blinding lights (Gosh, I love that song... Makes me wanna fly right to NY!)
2. You are my kind -- Seal
3. Ain't no sunshine
4. With or without you
5. Hang up - Madonna
 
Oh, and:

6. Gold digger

(Am I the only one who is falling in love with the great voice of Jamie Foxx???)
 
Fade Together- Franz Ferdinand
One (live)- U2
The Fly-U2
Jesus Doesn't want Me For A Sunbeam
Shelter From The Storm-Bob Dylan
I just got iTunes a week ago
 
1. U2-Beautiful Day 141
2. U2-God Pt2 114
3. The Jimi Hendrix Experience-All Along the Watchtower 103
4. U2-If God Will Send His Angels 100
5. U2-Like A Song 99


I've had iTunes for 3+ years...BD is top cause that was the first U2 song I liked :dancing:
 
Since I've only had this laptop for three months and since I usually tend to listen to my music library on shuffle, these results are somewhat inaccurate.

1. Echo & The Bunnymen - Going Up (16 times)
2. U2 - Dancing Barefoot (16 times)
3. Echo & The Bunnymen - Rescue (14 times)
4. U2 - Miami (12 times)
5. U2 - Mofo (11 times)

It's probably more accurate to look at my Last.fm top tracks, as I started tabulating those when I was still on my old kaput desktop.

1. U2 - Zoo Station (81 times)
2. U2 - Bullet The Blue Sky (74 times)
3. U2 - Where The Streets Have No Name (73 times)
4. U2 - Even Better Than The Real Thing (64 times)
5. U2 - Miami (57 times)

Even those are slightly skewed, as Last.fm can't distinguish between live tracks and studio tracks. Bullet and Streets wouldn't be nearly as high if it weren't for the fact that they're on practically every bootleg since 1987.
 
I've only had itunes about a month also and I really don't have much music on here (don't have an iPod and my regular stereo is in the same room so no real need to put stuff on my pc). So what I do have is a bunch of oddities mostly.

1) The Church --Til the Cows Come Home (my first song in itunes :) )
2) Coral Kingdom -- Another Day
3) Coral Kingdom -- Black River
4) Steve Kilbey -- A Palace in India (not a song actually, but a recitation of one of his poems)

and then there are seven songs tied for 5th place
 
Guess I better add my top 5 too

Who's Gonna Ride...-U2
All These Things That I've Done- Killers
Mr. Brightside- Killers
Messed Up Everywhere Blues- Jason Harrod
The Wanderer (Live)- U2

My top 25 has had a drastic facelift in the last month, coincidentally.
 
On my iPod, it's "Monday Night" by Ryan Adams. In iTunes, it's a tie between "Swing, Swing" by The All-American Rejects and "Loser" by Beck.
