MyTopOneHundredSongsOfAllTime

Quoth SongBook

upon a dare from LJ:hiphopdiary http://hiphopdiary.livejournal.com/488494.html?nc=5&style=mine
just starting on it, this list is by no means final (or any any order yet) !!

• I’ve left it to mostly pop music because listing Classical, Jazz, and more Ethnic forms of Music is too hard to single out indvidual tracks (usually its an entire album that has me hooked.)
• Limited Almost Exlusively to what i have in my music library... i figure if its my fave of all time i would have downloaded it by now... right?
• checked songs i am absolutely sure of.
• missing: Sade, the the?
