The Marshall Tucker Band – Can’t You See: 8
It seems that my vote for this was missing for some reason. Great playing on this one.
Electric Light Orchestra – Do Ya: 10
There is no need to be philosophical about this one, as the reason I love this one is very straightforward. This song gives me great energy! There is something in the build with the violins and the powerful guitar riffs that just makes it impossible not to move. When I saw the placement of this song on my list I wondered if I had been a little too generous. The song was on rotation when I compiled the top 1000. But no, this is still irresistible to me.

Re: Biggest Fan Songs - 2nd Edition: 301 - 400
Today’s song is a bit of an enigma to me. Apparently very popular in Egypt, but not very known outside of it, there is very little I can find about it in a language I speak. Discogs is the only place that has any form of date, so I went with that. I can’t tell you if it was only a single or was also on an album. Neither do I know if the live recording that I find on Spotify is the only one that exists. If Cetamol or anyone else knows more, please tell me.

The recording of the live show is rough, but despite this and the big length it is consistently a captivating. I know too little about this type of music to put it into any kind of context, but hey, I liked it.

Today we actually get a song that was one of the most acclaimed songs of it’s year. It ranks as #6 of 2017, with an all-time placement of #1098. On this forum though, did it only really click with Holden?

After all that art pop and Egyptian music, I guess it was inevitable we would now get a country #1 song. It’s just the way this game works. The song is bubblin’ under on AM. At least Toni is a man of hers.

I must have heard it back then, but I don't remember it. Strange, as it is a very cool sounding song with it's own sound.
Shania Twain – Any Man of Mine: 5
Inoffensive in a conservative way, but hardly something that grabs me.

A very typical Vampire Weekend song. The good thing about that is that is fun. The downside is that this is not one I would personally chose for a list, but to each their own.
