love your list so far. ^_^

Thanks for all the comments everyone.

And we begin, another year-end in the works!



100. Keane - Somewhere Only We Know
| Hopes & Fears |

.. I'm getting old and I need something to rely on


99. Billy Talent - Nothing To Lose
| Billy Talent |

.. There's nothing to lose, when no one knows your name


98. Hawthorne Heights - Niki FM
| Silence In Black & White |

.. I'm outside of your window, with my radio


97. Gorillaz - Dare
| Demon Days |

.. It's dare, OOH!


96. Girls Aloud - I'll Stand By You
| BBC Children In Need 2004 |

.. Nothing you confess, could make me love you less


95. Britney Spears - Someday (I Will Understand)
| Chaotic |

.. And you'll finally see, you'll see it all in my baby


94. Switchfoot - This Is Your Life
| The Beautiful Letdown |

.. This is your life, are you who want to be?


93. The Used - All That I've Got
| In Love & Death |

.. I'll be just fine, pretending I'm not


92. Sum 41 - Some Say
| Chuck |

.. Some say, we're never meant to grow up

It's been a solid year for Sum 41. Another huge hit of theirs this year is much higher on the chart. If you've ever tried to be perfect, and it just wasn't worth it, keep reading throughout the next week and a half to find out where it lands!


91. Nickelback - Photograph
| All The Right Reasons |

.. How did our eyes get so red? And what the hell is on Joey's head?

#90-81 coming soon!

Okay, hate #91, LOATHE #98, everything else i've heard is tolerable(All That I've Got) to awesome(DARE).

Good ratio.

Come again didnt make it! GRRRR. I dont like your 100-91 booo other songs from the unmade list could have made it hahha.

Love ya

LOL. Since when do you not like Sum 41, The Used, Gorillaz, and Keane
Haha love.

The Academy Is... and the Used will be much higher on my year end countdown.

Anways so far its amazing can't wait to see the rest.

114. Rachel Stevens – Negotiate With Love
119. Britney Spears – Do Somethin’
136. Amerie f. T.I. – Touch

aww...I liked those!

this is so cutish. Keep it up!

They both have much, MUCH higher charting songs still to come

Thanks for all the comments.


90. Coldplay - Fix You
| X & Y |

.. When you love someone but it goes to waste. Could it be worse?


89. Simple Plan - Me Against The World
| Still Not Getting Any |

.. I'm a nightmare, a disaster, that's what they always said


88. Sarah McLachlin - Push
| Afterglow |

.. You're all the things that I desire, you save me, complete me


87. Esthero - We R In Need Of A Musical Revolution
| Wikked Lil' Grrrls |

.. I want something more


86. Green Day - Wake Me Up When September Ends
| American Idiot |

.. Here comes the rain again, falling from the stars


85. Theory Of A Deadman - Santa Monica
| Gasoline |

.. You left me to remain with all your excuses for everything


84. The Bravery - Public Service Announcement
| The Bravery |

.. You put the broke in, broken hearted. You put the art in, retarted

This is the first of four, yup, you heard it, FOUR singles from The Bravery to make the 2005 year-end chart. The three others are all in the upper half of the chart but don't take that away from the catchiness and flava flav this song has to offer. 'Stop, Drop, and Roll'. It was a nuisance to see them perform this live. One of 2005's best breakthrough acts.


83. All American Rejects - Dirty Little Secret
| Move Along |

.. I go around a time or two, just to waste my time with you


82. Modest Mouse - World At Large
| Good News For People Who Love Bad News |

.. Ice age heat wave, can't complain


81. Snow Patrol - Run
| Final Straw |

.. To think I might not see those eyes, makes it so hard not to cry

Check back Monday for #80-71.

#95
#91
#86

Best songs on here, so far.

And I loved 'Do Somethin'

this song is much higher in my top...

great list!

In the next 2-3 sets it will be a pretty even split of genres. Kind of a way too filter out the actual good music that did come out on Top 40.

#80-71 ..


80. Natasha Bedingfield - Unwritten
| Unwritten |

.. This is where your book begins, the rest is still unwritten


79. James Blunt - You're Beautiful
| Back To Bedlam |

.. She could see from my face that I was, ****ing high


78. Kanye West f. Adam Levine - Heard 'Em Say
| Late Registration |

.. And I heard 'em say, nothing's ever promised tomorrow today

The most controversial and cocky mofo in the music business. His album was brilliant. His tunes are brilliant. However, his most mainstream and crowd pleasing single to date is coming up later in the chart. Check back to see how high those Anna Nicole smith type chicks made it. (and look immediately below for his other tune!)


77. Kanye West - Diamonds (From Sierra Lionne)
| Late Registration |

.. Throw your diamonds in the sky if you feel the vibe


76. Ashanti - Don't Leave Me Alone
| Concrete Rose |

.. Now if I could just be with you, if you were to ask me, I would leave with you


75. Foo Fighters - Best Of You
| In Your Honour |

.. I've got another confession to make


74. Finch - Bitemarks & Bloodstains
| Say Hello To The Sunshine |

.. Subsequently you'll see, you deserve more than me


73. Oasis - Lyla
| Don't Believe The Truth |

.. I waited for a 1,000 years for you to come and blow me out my mind


72. Motion City Soundtrack - Everything Is Alright
| Commit This To Memory |

.. Give me a reason, to end this discussion. To break with tradition, to fold and divide


71. Natasha Bedingfield - These Words
| Unwritten |

.. Trying to find the magic, trying to write a classic

one of the songs in your #80-#71 is in my top 5. SWEET

simple plan, the most irritating band of the 2005

Heard 'Em Say <33333

Snow Patrol, Motion City, James Bount
