1001 Songs You Must Hear Before You Die is a book containing...well..10,001 songs you should listen to before your life's termination.
Confused? I was.
Let me explain: the main section of the book is, indeed, descriptions of the main 1,001 songs that a group of editors have determined are essential to hear by those who have an appreciation for music, from 1916 up to 2010. However, the editors just couldn't resist adding an index with 9,000 more songs-you know, just in case 1,001 alone wasn't enough for you.
Though I am sure that there are many other people who have enough time on their hands to listen to all 10,001 songs, I have decided to go through ALL of them myself-just for you-and tell you what's good, and what's not.
Of course, since this book was originally created based on other people's opinions, some perfectly good artists were left out of even the 10,001 list. Remember that I did not choose these songs, nor do I agree that they are any good. I am simply expressing my opinion of other people's opinions. Feel free to look up any and all of the songs on Youtube, iTunes, etc.
That being said-enjoy!
