Here it is... the debut of the my decades countdown. Over the next 7 weeks, I am going to count backward from 100 all the way to 1 (a difficult task for a simpleton like myself) with my 100 favorite songs of the decade. The only stipulation is that I can only play one song per band. It was very difficult... when I started my list, I had over 250 songs. But after much whittling, I finally have what I would call a definitive list. Go ahead and click play or click here to download for later.

100 - Passion Pit - The Reeling
99 - Pearl Jam - Life Wasted
98 - Metallica - The Day That Never Comes
97 - Bowling for Soup - The Bitch Song
96 - A Perfect Circle - Judith
95 - Rihanna - Shut Up and Drive
94 - Nelly Furtado - Promiscuous
93 - Beck - Que Onda Guero
92 - Rancid - Fall Back Down
91 - Lil' Wayne - A Milli
90 - Bloc Party - Positive Tension
89 - Blue October - She's My Ride Home
88 - Kevin Rudolf - Let It Rock
87 - Gnarls Barkley - Crazy
86 - Nas - One Mic

As usual, be sure to support these artists. You should support all good musicians, but these are the 100 best of the decade. The least you can do is download a song or go to Target, Best Buy, (wherever really) and pick up a shiny silver disc.
