MUSIC

Clearly a huge topic. Where would one begin? Most importantly to know is that music is subjective. Songs that are loved by some are not liked by others. Why is this? It's simply because we like songs for many reasons. They appeal to us because we can relate to the lyrics, they appeal to us because we remember hearing them years back or at a time in our lives when something critical or memorable happened.

This topic needs a LOT more added to it. I'll get around to other thoughts on music as they come to me and I am able to add.

One such thought is finding all songs that have ever been in the top 100 of - say - Billboard, since perhaps 1950.

Another thought is to include music I would title "The Greatest Songs Never Heard." These would apply to songs that have clearly been heard, but not by many thus never becoming mainstream or popular amongst the masses. Such songs would have likely been widely played by fans or individuals everywhere if they had been promoted more and/or given more mass-media air time.
