Sixty songs

[kerriesakura]

It's the Sunday after Christmas, I'm bored like everyone else, so what to do? Make a playlist of your favourite songs, obviously.

They're not the best songs, they're sure as shit not the coolest. But they're roughly my favourite sixty as of the end of this decade I suppose. Not all FROM this decade, though. I say roughly because I only allowed myself one song per artist, and because I might change my mind. ;)

(One song per artist was ridiculously hard for Belle & Sebastian, Kristin Hersh, Throwing Muses, The Wildhearts, Tori Amos, Malcolm Middleton, Tanya Donelly, The Delgados, Foo Fighters, and so on FOREVER...)

They're below the cut, in alphabetical artist order rather than order of preference because pffft that's impossible.
