Yesterday (12/5/2024) WXPN started counting down “The
885 Greatest Songs of the 21st Century,” as voted by its listeners. My
picks are below. I voted somewhat strategically, with the idea that songs that
never got played on the station would have little chance of making the list.
(The exception is #10, which was so huge that I thought it might have a shot anyway.)
1.
From A Windowseat –
Dawes
2.
Put Your Records On – Corinne Bailey Rae
3.
Satellite – Guster*
4.
My City Of Ruins – Bruce Springsteen
5.
Help Me – Low Cut Connie
6.
Sailing To Philadelphia – Mark Knopfler
7.
Silver Lining – Rilo Kiley
8.
Uptown Funk – Mark Ronson w/Bruno Mars
9.
Dark Necessities – Red Hot Chili Peppers
10.
Blinding Lights – The Weeknd
* The only one to make Day 1 of the countdown, at #802
