Hello,
The way I'm doing this is I'm going to post the Top 102 greatest 1950s songs in order of the way I thought of them. Once I hit 102 songs I will go and look at the 102 listed songs and see if there are any other songs that the 101st song might be better than. If so I will replace the previously listed song. That way I can stay at 100 songs and have truly the 100 greatest 1950s songs of all-time. This isn't a ranking by best songs, that's just too much work. As best as I can these are the 102 greatest 1950s songs.
I will also post other great 1950s songs by each band listed if motivated enough. As all of these artists are so much more than one of the 100 greatest songs of the 1950s. Yeah I'm going to try and do all the decades from the 1950s to now, some decades will be harder/easier than others. It's likely not all of these songs will still be around in the final edition of this decade's Top 102 Best Songs.
