You look a bit miffed.

Earworm: “Books From Boxes” by Maximo Park
An English avant-rock band. Cool.
Earworm: “Radar Detector” by Darwin Deez
This song is much to catchy to not become an Earworm.

Burn me at the stake for this one, boys and girls.

Earworm: “Staying Alive” by [The] Bee Gees
Tell me, how can you not love the Bee Gees?
I often, while growing up not paying any close attention to music, found difficulty differentiating The Beatles from the Bee Gees.
My dad constantly had to explain to me, and so now I know the dire differences between the two British supergroups.
And I love them both.
I’m also an avid fan of BBC Sherlock, and hearing this song on that show was… thrilling.
Listen to the Bros. Gibb. Listen. (But I’d consider lowering your speaker volume, you’ll lose some hearing from them.)
Earworm: Don’t You Worry Child – Swedish House Mafia
It’s a shame they broke up. First song of theirs I listened to, but it certainly won’t be the last. This video kinda gives me the chills. It sucks, first it Pendulum, and now SHM.
Thank you Swedish House Mafia for creating some awesome earworms.
Top 30 Favorite Songs of All Time: #1
The first. The only. The song that brought christened me into the world of music.
Numb, by Linkin Park, off Meteora, their end-all, be-all best album, no matter how much I love Living Things and A Thousand Suns (and hell, Hybrid Theory and Minutes to Midnight. I love them all).
The Big Cheese, yes, him again, got me to listen to this song when I was quite young. I listened to it all the time in his trooper of a red Dodge Neon.
This needs no explanation. This song… is epic.
Top 30 Favorite songs of All Time: #2 “Blackout” by Linkin Park
How do I follow up with a post about arguably the most famous band of all time?
With my favorite band, of course. Linkin Park has been questioned and taunted and praised and heckled, much like any good band. But they are the sole surviving band of the nu metal era, aside from Korn, who made an album with Skrillex. And we all know how people hate Skrillex.
Blackout is off of LP’s 4th album, A Thousand Suns. I remember the concert The Big Cheese and I went to, and how I had lost my voice to this song. Damn, what a good osng.
Top 30 Favorite Songs of All Time: #3 “Yesterday” by The Beatles
Oh I believe, in yesterday…
The Beatles need to be on everyone’s good music list in some way or another (excluding of course, the bad sections). The originators of what I like to call the ‘hot-Brits-take-over-America-by-music’ movement, they definitely make my Top 30 List. My dad was a huge fan of The Beatles growing up, and I’m a fan now, too.
This ballad is so heart-wrenching and genuine, and, it was actually voted Best Song of the 20th Century!
I love it.
