Around New Year's the one and only decent rock radio station in NYC - WRXP was having a thing where people would send in their top 20 favorite songs of all time. I made up a list but never sent it in. Try picking your 20 favorite songs - ha! Its near impossible. But here is the list I put together. The songs that when you catch them on the radio or on a cd, you crank up the volume and go Oh MY GOD I LOVE THIS SONG! Except for the number 1 song, in no particular order.
numero uno - Sleepwalking Past Hope comes a close second, but this song is the one
