DISCLAIMER: The following is subject to change as my opinions continue to evolve.
So last month I took my Favorite Songs Per Year list and expanded it into a Top 5 Favorite Songs Per Year list. So I figured now it would only make sense to expand it even further, into a Top 10 Songs Per Year list… I don’t go out much these days…
DISCLAIMER: Yes, I know some of these artists are shitty people, but I still like their music. Can’t help it…
