Anyone for Desert island discs

There's a long running show on BBC radio called Desert Island Disks. The guest of the week has to pick ten songs they would take to their desert island. They also one luxury item and three books (alongside the Bible).
I'm still thinking but what songs/books/luxury item would you bring?
