2000-2009:  Music in Review / Glenn’s 100 favorite songs of the decade

For the past nine years, I have come up with year-end top 20 lists.  To culminate the decade, I attempted, in vain, to complete a top 150 list of my favorite songs of the decade.  I hit an impasse in the #40s onwards - how do I differentiate songs numbered 40 and 41, and 64

OOH! My list would look totally different, obviously (for one thing, there is a palpable lack of Rilo Kiley! Oversiiiight!) but i appreciated reading through this and found myself high fiving you at various points.

I had The Execution of All Things (or I Never, i think?) somewhere between 100-150 in my original list. But yeah, oversight! :P

Happy new year, by the way, Sandee! -- I lost your cell # by the way when my phone got stolen. Please send through PM?

Likewise, be safe on the eve! All the best, Glenn-dora! I shall send you an offline on the messenger!

Oh and I just realized my profile picture is really really really old. I was just seventeen here. Guess I never really around to fixing my LJ.

OMG, Glenn. This list is monstrous! I'm very, very impressed--not only at your astute insights but also at your sheer tiyaga! Happy new year!

And by the way... WHERE IS MOMMA MADONNA? Wala man lang Hung Up or Jump? C'mon, even your ate will be upset! :p

[freeallangels]

Haha! Sorry Mike, Drowned World/Substitute For Love came 2 years too early. :)

And thanks!

"you have way cooler taste in music than quark henares" was all i had to say.

oh and also "walang reptilia - the strokes?"

[freeallangels]

Haha! Thanks thanks! :)

I already have three Strokes songs in there -- and I wasn't too hot for Reptilia. The second album's highlight was definitely Under Control, IMO. Happy new year!

AHA!

The much awaited list! I would have thought you'd put Young Folks in your top ten, and Ibi instead of Anthems in your top ten also. And for From the Airwaves---Drop It Like It's Hot. Hehe

And...Why no local songs?

Re: AHA!

[freeallangels]

Hehe... I wanted to put a few Dorques, Taken by Cars, or Itchyworms songs in there, and maybe early Sandwich and Urbandub, but I figured I'd make a separate list for that :)
