Monday, January 19, 2009 
So...I entered the 34th year in my life (turning 33 yesterday).  And on the way into work I was listening to my radio station 103.9 PROUD FM www.proudfm.com as I often do. 
The song "Clocks" came on...and I realized that I love that song...I turned to my lovely wife and told her that I think that it would be in my "Top Twenty" of all time songs...like I am Bobboard magazine or something...

She ignored me as she often does...(why wouldn't she?  I am so annoying after all)

So I was left with my thoughts about this non-existant Top Twenty. 

So I started to compile a list in my little brain.  How very "High Fidelity" of me.
I have revised the list, though.

It is now...

THE TOP 33 SONGS OF MY 33 YEARS.

So, that means, it is songs that were released since my birth January 18, 1976.   (I know - so very self serving...but you don't HAVE to be reading this)
And this list will not be my favourite songs "right now"...consider this a compilation of songs that I have loved through my life.

Here we go:

1.      BLACK- Pearl Jam

2.      IN THE AIR TONIGHT- Phil Collins

3.      CLOCKS- Coldplay

4.      MR. BRIGHTSIDE- The Killers

5.      POISON- Bel Biv Devoe

6.      FREAKS OF THE INDUSTRY - Digital Underground

7.      WHEN I FALL - Barenaked Ladies

8.      GOD MADE ME - Chantal Kreviazuk

9.      PRESENT TENSE - Pearl Jam

10.  WISHLIST- Pearl Jam

11.  ONE- Metallica

12.  ROCK LOBSTER - B-52's

13.  CUTS YOU UP - Peter Murphy

14.  SWAMP THING - Chameleons UK

15.  WHEAT KINGS - Tragically Hip

16.  BAD IS BAD- Huey Lewis and the News

17.  ITS STILL ROCK AND ROLL TO ME - Billy Joel

18.  SWIMMING IN YOUR OCEAN - Crash Test Dummies

19.  BORN SLIPPY - Underworld

20.  SOMEBODY - Depeche Mode

21.  LULLABY - The Cure

22.  5 DAYS IN MAY - Blue Rodeo

23.  WONDERWALL - Oasis

24.  MAMA SAID KNOCK YOU OUT - LL Cool J

25.  REARVIEW MIRROR - Pearl Jam

26.  FREE FALLIN - Tom Petty

27.  THE END OF THE INNOCENCE - Don Henley

28.  RELEASE - Tea Party

29.  EVERLONG - Foo Fighters

30.  SUMMERTIME - DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince

31.  FORTYSIX & 2 - Tool

32.  PORCELAIN- Moby

33.   ????

Feel free to make suggestions for #33.

What have I forgotten?

If you know me - then you know that there have been songs and artists that

I have forgotten...

Anyhow...thanks for reading...lists are great...they are a simple way to look

back...and if I am anything - it's simple.

Hmmm...for song 33, how about a song you heard in a Bingo hall once.


You liked it, but unlike the other songs, this one didn't get "over play"...it just sounded like an amazing song to you at the time, but then it somehow vanished.


(I'm thinking of bingo halls that play music in between bingo calls)
