My radio is tuned to 102.1 as I listen to their top 102 countdown of 2007. I can't remember the last December 31 I didn't do this, it's sort of an annual tradition of mine.
This year I'll record the top ten live as I listen. Reload this page every few minutes and you'll get an updated list. When it's done, I'll throw my two cents at the bottom of this entry.
- Silversun Pickups - Lazy Eye
- Incubus - Anna Molly
- Alexisonfire - Boiled Frogs
- The White Stripes - Icky Thump
- Finger Eleven - Paralyzer
- Linkin Park - What I've Done
- Tokyo Police Club - Nature of the Experiment
- Rise Against - Prayer Of The Refugee
- Red Hot Chili Peppers - Snow (Hey Oh)
- The Fratellis - Flathead
Only two songs appeared on both this CFNY list and my personal top ten of 2007. There would have been more overlap, but I delisted a few of their picks because the song was released in 2006.
Nothing shocking here. I'm still surprised at how overrated that Finger Eleven song is. I'm not a huge fan of that Chili Pepper song, either. I'm a big fan of 60% of this top ten, including their choice for #1.
Bonus thought: How old is Martin Streek? He's been on the Edge forever. Seriously, I can't remember listening to 102.1 without Streek. He's got to be pushing 60.
That's it for me, I'm logging off for the year... Happy New Year everyone.
