The top place in these countdowns is always obvious once the rest have been eliminated. Leaving the last two unnamed is a shrewd move.

You are my hero!! Your additions of most favorite songs between No. 6 and 20 have given me a big Laugh!! I ADORE some of the choices Eartha Kitt at No. 6!!! I spent YEARS trying to track down a '45 of this record and finally stumbled on one at a car boot sale a couple of years ago. And "America" is a fantastic song - always loved that. Even the Keith Emerson Intrumental on "The Nice" Album is a great rocking number, thought the composer (I think it was Bernstein - correct me if I'm wrong) was less than impressed.

"some people". So far so good with this countdown. If people had taken the time to read the explanations Pete has provided, they might gain some insight into why some songs are here and some are missed. I'm really looking forward to seeing what's in the top 20. What I hope to find at the end of this project is a collage of what makes songs good, memorable, enduring, hateful, downright atrocious but above all, songs that illicit some kind of reaction rather than simply inspire nothing more than indifference. We don't have to agree with the choices, but at least take some time to find out why those choices were made. Well… “some people”. So far so good with this countdown.

If you want at least some idea of Toms top 20, look no further than the tracks that he has given a score of 10 to. Logic dictates that those singles not already accounted for in the previous 80 must be included in his top 20 somewhere. People!

Sneakily putting in skeletal family at 89.5. BTW before you show your top 10 list please listen to "surfin' bird" by the Trashmen on Spotify or similar. An episode of Family Guy unearthed this gem for me. Gotta be in your top 5 eh? Am I the first to notice that your top 100 list will contain 101 songs? Sneakily putting in skeletal family at 89.5.

And all this BEFORE Tom shows us his top 20!!! You're not supposed to take it that seriously people. Still, some of the comments gave me a good laugh. Personally I think your list shows an amazingly open-minded attitude to music. You obviously list many songs that you just plain ENJOY because they please your ear - fair enough! (How many of you out there won't admit to actually liking "the birdie dance" or "the smurf song" or even "chirpy chirpy cheepcheep" etc.) You know who you are!! Chill out, Guys! Talk about HORNETS NESTS AND RATTLED CAGES!!!
