ok ok, i'm procrastinating AGAIN and i came across epiphany's top 50 songs list, limit one song per band. i don't have time to do 50-- believe it or not it took me a really long time to come up with 25. i suspect that's because given the chance i could have a top 50 consisting entirely of matt nathanson, coldplay, u2, guster, and the counting crows. i don't like a wide variety of bands, i just really really love the ones i do like. but, i stuck to it. i'll come back and fill in explanations sometime soon, so no protests yet :)
