top 100 songs ever

My favourite 100 songs of all time. In a carefully thought out order that changes all the time.
It is so well thought out that I am only up to 4 songs at the moment.
Some songs will hit me between the eyes but their flame will burn bright and brief. Others will smolder and stay with me for as long as my brain will allow.
