Christine & Mike

Ever since Stephen King published his 24 greatest rock songs of all time, people all over have been posting their own lists all over the internet, Christine (and her family) included. In retaliation, I’ve decided to start my own list, slightly modified. My list, is the Top 24 Songs you’ve (probably) never heard of. (Click the Play button to the below each list item, to listen to it. Your browser may “buffer” a number of times for each song, depending on your internet connection speed. I apologize if it bothers you.) So, here goes:

Some of these songs, I’m sure, you’ve heard of. Hopefully you’ll check out some of the ones that you haven’t heard of, and find a new band that you enjoy.

Is this a complete list? Obviously not. This is just what songs I felt were great that were on my two MP3 players (iPod and doPi). I’m sure there’s a zillion other songs out there that could make it onto this list, but those are my top 24. What’re yours?
