Thoughts --
# 66, Stars, should be bolded -- I saw them live at Jayhawk MusicFest back in... 1998?
The Toadies' "Paper Dress" just drives me nuts, it's so good and so hard rocking. Can't believe that wasn't on a studio album proper. I've seen the Toadies three times now (all recently) but I've never seen them perform that song.
R.E.M.'s "Orange Crush"... this list originally had NO R.E.M. on it, whcih was a horrible mistake (thanks to my brother-in-law Mark for pointing this error out to me. Orange Crush is probably my favorite R.E.M. song, hence its position here. Other noteworthy R.E.M. songs... Pop Song, Crush with Eyeliner, I Don't Sleep I Dream (all not on the top 100).
I know this is my top 100 and we're only at the 60s, but damn, these 10 songs would make for a sweet ass rockin CD mix!
