What are the Top 100 Songs ever released?
A friend offered this challenge and I made up my own rules:
- Only one song per artist (though exceptions were made for band vs. solo career)
- These are my personal favorites, not what I would critically call "the best" - many have sentimental value
- Listed alphabetically by artist
Let's see your list! E-mail
it to me and I'll post it on this page! (Lists are posted in the order they
were received.)
