Top 20 Songs
Here’s a list of my current top 20 songs of all time. I know it’s a little strange to say “current” and “of all time” in the same sentence.. but my tastes change constantly and these are the songs that stand the test of time that I absolutely love. It’s hard enough to pick the top songs of all time in the first place so I didn’t put them in order. Please comment if you get the time.
