I've tried to do this series of blogs and then given up on it several times. However this time I'm sure I have a better plan and that it might actually work. Right now I'm coming up with my Top 700ish songs of all-time. Although I might have to go a couple of songs beyond that, thus the ish in the title.
Right now I'm working on a list of songs that are no-doubters and will for sure be in my Top 700. I plan on having 1 list of 700ish songs as my first tier. I plan on having a second and third tier of 100 greatest songs of all-time (GSOAT). I'm only one person and putting this list together won't be quick and I'll be updating this blog frequently. They're in alphabetical order so it's easier to keep track of the songs on this list. The number in front of the songs is my way to keep track of how many songs I've posted.
I don't know if any of these songs will finish in the Top 700ish songs of all-time or not. Some will, some won't. Even if they don't make it these are still great songs.
