Songs in a Blender

Blender Magazine will release in their October issue the Top 500 Songs Since You Were Born List which means since 1980 (so if you were born before 1980 'you' is not applicable). Here's their top 10:

1. "Billie Jean," Michael Jackson
2. "B.O.B.," Outkast
3. "Sweet Child O' Mine," Guns N' Roses
4. "One," U2
5. "Smells Like Teen Spirit," Nirvana
6. "Like a Prayer," Madonna
7. "Love Will Tear Us Apart," Joy Division
8. "Sucker MCs," Run-D.M.C.
9. "... Baby One More Time," Britney Spears
10. "In Da Club," 50 Cent

Missing from these 500 songs are some of the first CDs that ever graced my CD rack. Where's the Ace of Base? Where's the Ahmad? Where's the Green Jelly? I guess that's to be expected when anyone rates anything and really, since I've only seen these 10, it's possible that those three are somewhere in the list and maybe multiple times even. So, anyway, I've decided to go ahead and make a list of my own. So here it is:

The Best Songs Involving Whistling:
(In No Particular Order)

Winds of Change-Scorpions

The Theme From The Andy Griffith Show-Andy Griffith

Rockin' Robin-Bobby Day

Daydream-Lovin' Spoonful

Sitting On The Dock of The Bay-Otis Redding

Don't Worry Be Happy-Bobby McFerrin

So yeah, there's that. And don't even get me started on hand cooing.
