My Favorite Song From Each Year I’ve Been Alive

A while back I did a movie one and I saw this one mentioned on Twitter, so I thought I would try it. I’m not digging deep into the music of each year. I’m looking at the top 100 and picking a song so I’m sure I will miss some favorites and some genres. As we get more recent I might look up certain songs to find the year so I don’t miss them. I might add links to some I think people might not know, but not for most of them. That seems like work.

  1. Nice list. Up to a point I was with you, but then you veered into areas I’m not familiar with. And can I say, now I feel old. You were born the year I graduated high school. I must have said this when you did your movie list.
