Since we've been having all of these movie lists coming out of the woodwork today I thought we might as well have a list on our favorite SONGS too. Only this time instead of saying your frustrations at the end of the list like "how could so and so not be on there" I want you to make a list of your own that way you won't have to say that. :p It can be your top 10 favorite songs, top 25, top 50, top 100 whatever you feel like but let's hear what your faves are.
