Directions: Go to musicoutfitters and put your birth year into the search field. The first link is likely the top 100 songs of that year. Cut and paste that list here. Bold the ones you actually like. Understand that the word "like" in this case means, at the very least, that you wouldn't immediately change the radio station. Pick a favorite and indicate it in italics.
