Here are my favorite songs from the Billboard Top 100 charts of the last 20 years, without repeating artists:Ģ015 – “Shut Up and Dance” by Walk the Moon (#6)Ģ012 – “Wild Ones” by Flo Rida featuring Sia (#11)Ģ007 – “Here (In Your Arms)” by Hellogoodbye (#81)Ģ006 – “Sugar, We’re Goin Down” by Fall Out Boy (#68)Ģ005 – “Boulevard of Broken Dreams” by Green Day (#7)Ģ003 – “Ignition (Remix)” by R.It’s Fiona Apple New Vinyl Thursday at The Vinyl Underground at 7th Heaven. Top R&B songs: 1946 to 2011 – the top R&B song in America for each year according to Billboard magazine.How I find out about music: aside from television and radio and taking a chance on a record, I read about the singers and musicians I like and find out who it is that they liked and so on. This is my nearest thing to an iPod playlist. I made this list so that I have something to listen to at work. But most are songs I have played to death and even now, after all these years, I am still not tired of them! A great song never grows old.
But I wanted to get something down for each year as a starting point.įor some years, like 19, it was hard to settle on just one song, but for others it was hard to find something passable! So the quality from year to year is uneven. This is still a work in progress: the list will change as I remember songs that I forgot to consider. 2019: Coyot: Love Myself on the Weekend.2018: Mj Rodriguez ft Billy Porter: Home.2012: French Montana ft Rick Ross, Drake & Lil Wayne: Pop That.2011: Cee Lo Green ft Melanie Fiona: Fool For You.2003: Mary Fahl: Going Home(the opening song of “Gods and Generals”).1994: Youssou N’Dour & Neneh Cherry: 7 Seconds.
1981: Stacy Lattisaw: Love On a Two Way Street.1980: Bruce Springsteen: Drive All Night.1979: Commodores: Still (the long, six-minute album version).1974: Barry White: Can’t Get Enough of Your Love.1973: Marvin Gaye: If I Should Die Tonight.1972: Roberta Flack: The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face.1969: David Ruffin: My Whole World Ended.1967: Stevie Wonder: Someday at Christmas.1966: James Brown: It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World.1965: Righteous Brothers: Unchained Melody.1964: The Beatles: I Want to Hold Your Hand.Links in italics go straight to YouTube the others have posts of their own on this blog, complete with lyrics in most cases.“Best” means which song I would take with me to a desert island.Here are the best songs that I know of for each year since the Beatles landed in America.
