40-31 is my personal favorite set, other than "Wind It Up" obviously, though "Wolf Like Me" MORE than makes up for it.
"Hip Hop Is Dead" and "Think I'm In Love" being on, that's also tremendous.

I'm giving you the salute.
Some songs I REALLY should've heard before this list:
Band of Horses - The Funeral
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah - The Skin of My Yellow Country Teeth
Peter Bjorn & John - Young Folks
CSS - Let's Make Love and Listen To Death From Above
The Islands - Rough Gem
Muse - Starlight
Now here are the three final close class inductees - three songs I have ISSUES with:
Cassie - Me & U
It's pretty much perfect, but then again no? It really is though - so why isn't on the main list?QUESTIONS
The Killers - When You Were Wrong
The Village Voice was one the money on this song one week when they called it .... well, they called it something I can't remember. But it perfectly described it! I should hate this song because it's their desperate grab at Springsteen-esque (BORN TO RUN!?!??!) greatness - forgetting that Brandon Flowers has all the emotional resonance of a Mack truck. But I don't? And I hate myself for loving it.
The Arctic Monkeys/The Sugababes - I Bet That You Look Good On the Dancefloor
The original version - done by the Monkeys - is fine, if you like stereotypical boyish shenanigans and recklessness. The Babes take this raucous template for greatness and turn it into a masterpiece. The electro-pop funk of their version gives the track a much needed feminine sensibility and makes it, at long last, truly perfect. So why isn't it on the list? Because I'm having issues with them - and the original is not good enough to be recognized on it's own.
Next up - top albums! Then 20-1! YAY FOR ME!

LET ME FINISH THIS?
20. Amy Winehouse - Rehab
They tried to make me go to rehab but I said no, no, no
Yes I been black but when I come back no, no, no
I ain’t got the time
And if my daddy thinks I’m fine
You’s tried to make me go to rehab but I won’t go, go, go
19. The Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Cheated Hearts
Sometimes
I think that I'm bigger
Than the sound
I think that I'm bigger
Than the sound
I think that I'm bigger
than the sound
I think that I'm bigger
Than the sound
18. Beyonce - Ring the Alarm
She go be rocking chinchilla coats
If I let you go
gettin' the house off the coast
If I let you go
She go take everything I own
If I let you go
I can’t let you go
Damned if I let you go
She gone rock them VVS stones
If I let you go
Couped in the back of the Rolls
If I let you go
She gonna profit everything I taught
If I let you go
I can’t let you go
Damned if let you go
17. Ashlee Simpson - Invisible
Like a grain on the beach
Like a star in the sky
Far too many to count with the naked eye
They won’t see you
Go ahead
Walk on by
You don't know I’m alive
Maybe one day you’ll find
You should open your eyes
You don’t know me
[Chorus]
You’re the one who looked right through me
Now you’re saying that you knew me
When I was invisible
And you’re the one who walked right through me
Now you’re saying that you knew me
When I was invisible
Little things adding up
Try so hard not to rush
Giving in, letting go of the world we know
They won’t see you
Force it down
Lose the taste
They all think it’s a waste
We don’t need to believe every word they say, no
They don’t know me
[Chorus]
You’re the one who looked right through me
Now you’re saying that you knew me
When I was invisible
And you’re the one who walked right through me
Now you’re saying that you knew me
When I was invisible
It’s so easy to be lost
But maybe you’re not lost at all
Do you recognize me?
Do you know who I am?
Do you see me now?
Do you see me now?
[Chorus]
You’re the one who looked right through me
Now you’re saying that you knew me
When I was invisible
And you’re the one who walked right through me
Now you’re saying that you knew me
When I was invisible
I'm invisible
I’m invisible
I HAD TO QUOTE THE WHOLE SONG. Speaking of whole..
16. Girls Aloud - Whole Lotta History
I can't talk, I've got the wrong way
Looking up what's fallen down, yeah
I can't talk I've gone back the wrong way
What is the use in what I say
I'm talking 'bout a whole lotta history
I can't find a way to show what you mean to me
I've falling all around when you miss me
I don't know what to do, so tell me baby
Writeups/lyrics later? AND I MEAN IT THIS TIME.

Yeah, but no, but yeah ...
15. Hellogoodbye - Here (In Your Arms)
I like where we are
when we drive in your car
I like where we are
here
Cause our lips can touch
and our cheeks can brush
our lips can touch
here
Well you are the one
the one that lies close to me
whispers hello I miss you quite terrible
I fell in love in love with you suddenly
now theres no place else I could be
but here in your arms
14. Lupe Fiasco - Kick, Push
[Chorus]
And so he kick, push, kick, push, kick, push, kick, push, coast
And away he rolled
Just a rebel to the world with no place to go
And so he kick, push, kick, push, kick, push, kick, push, coast
So come and skate with me
Just a rebel
Looking for a place to be
So let's kick...and push...and coast
13. Carrie Underwood - Before He Cheats
And he don't know...
I dug my key into the side of his pretty little suped up 4 wheel drive,
carved my name into his leather seats...
I took a Louisville slugger to both head lights,
slashed a hole in all 4 tires...
And maybe next time he'll think before he cheats.
12. Aly & AJ - Chemicals React
Were you right, was I wrong
Were you weak, was I strong, yeah
Both of us broken
Caught in a moment
We lived and we loved
And we hurt and we jumped, yeah
But the planets all aligned
When you looked into my eyes
And just like that
The chemicals react
The chemicals react
11. The Pipettes - Your Kisses Are Wasted on Me
And you might cry half the time (And you don't know it, no you don't know it)
And you might try to hold my hand again (and you don't know it, no you don't know it)
And you might cry for some time (you still don't know it)
Your kisses are wasted on me!

10. Kleerup featuring Robyn - With Every Heartbeat/Christian Falk featuring Robyn & Ola Salo - Dream On
Maybe we can make it alright
We can make it better sometime
Maybe we can make it happen baby
We can keep trying but things will never change
So I don't look back
Still I'm dying with every step I take
But I don't look back
Just a little little bit better
Good enough to waste some time
Tell me would it make you happy baby
We can keep trying but things will never change
So I don't look back
Still I'm dying with every step I take
But I don't look back
Mmm
We can keep trying but things will never change
So I don't look back
Still I'm dying with every step I take
But I don't look back
And it hurts with every heartbeat
And it hurts with every heartbeat
And it hurts with every heartbeat
And it hurts with every heartbeat
And it hurts with every heartbeat
And it hurts with every heartbeat
And it hurts with every heartbeat
And it hurts with every heartbeat
9. Lily Allen - Smile
When you first left me
I was wanting more
But you were ****ing that girl next door
What'cha do that for? (What'cha do that for?)
When you first left me
I didnt know what to say
I've never been on my own that way
Just sat by myself all day
I was so lost back then
But with a little help from my friends
I found the light in the tunnel at the end
Now you're calling me up on the phone
So you can have a little whine and
a moan
And it's only because you are feeling alone
At first when I see you cry
It makes me smile
Yeah it makes me smile
At worst I feel bad for a while
But then I just smile
I go ahead and smile
Whenever you see me
You say that you want me back (Want me back)
And I tell you it don't mean jack (It don't mean jack)
No it don't mean jack (No it don't mean jack)
I couldn't stop laughing
No I just couldn't help myself
See you messed up my mental health
I was quite unwell
I was so lost back then
But with a little help from my friends
I found the light in the tunnel at the end
Now you're calling me up on the phone
So you can have a little whine and
a moan
And it's only because you're feeling alone
At first when I see you cry
It makes me smile
Yeah it makes me smile
At worst I feel bad for a while
But then I just smile
I go ahead and smile
At first when I see you cry (When I see you cry)
It makes me smile (It makes me smile)
Yeah it makes me smile (Yeah it makes me smile)
At worst I feel bad for a while (I feel bad for a while)
But then I just smile (But then I just smile)
I go ahead and smile (I go ahead and smile)
lalalalalalalalalalalalala
At first when I see you cry (When I see you cry)
It makes me smile (It makes me smile)
Yeah it makes me smile (Yeah it makes me smile)
At worst I feel bad for a while (I feel bad for a while)
But then I just smile (But then I just smile)
I go ahead and smile (I go ahead and smile)
8. Lil' Kim - Whoa
[Chorus: Lil' Kim]
My *****z, pull triggers, stack figures whoa whoa whoa
Snitch *****z, broke *****z not my *****z no no no
In the club we, sippin Don P, sittin lovely oh whoa whoa
Sexy ladies, goin crazy, cause the beat's like whoa whoa whoa
[Lil' Kim]
Fresh out the federal building
To Bentley Coupes with the convertible ceilings
It's the black widow, call me Miss White
I done been through it all, shootouts and fistfights
Crooklyn bitch, you go wrong I get right
Back with a classic, now gimme six mics
Can't reach me on the phone, then send a bitch a kite
Man I do's it in heels or a pair of crisp Nikes
Stand behind Martin Luther King, but I'm more like Malcolm X
Guerillas beatin on they chest, get it right on Malcolm X
Just keep the peace, cause if cowards show me disrespect
My *****z put his soul to rest and I don't wanna see you next
Champagne at my campaign, Kim for mayor
Told you I'm the same bitch from the escalator
And I ain't trippin off you rats and investigators
Get your envelopes, time to address the haters
[Chorus]
[Lil' Kim]
Me and my team, we tryin to own casinos
So we can all cop dreams like Pacino's
Come through in the oh-six Benz-itos
The feds tryin to shut us down like Nino
We keep it goin man, we keep it goin man
Won't stop, can't gotta keep it goin man
See I do it for the fans, they'll never understand
While they goin off course, me I'm stickin to the plan
Feel the movement, it's a whole new crew
**** Junior M.A.F.I.A., that chapter is through
Them ******s done did somethin that they cain't undo
Whoever ridin with 'em they can get one too
Coulda copped to a one to three do
Still took it to trial, even though I blew
Crooklyn style, that's how we do it
real gangsters and ain't got to prove it
[Chorus]
[Lil' Kim]
Now a party ain't a party 'til the Queen come through
You know where I go, man the team come too
Pull up in the Phantom or the V-1-2
Lil' Kim's that girl, even got her own shoe
In the club with my clique though, glass full of Crist-al
In the jail jumpsuit, still a bad bitch though
Rose from the ghetto it was hard from the get go
Then I showed the hood the world ain't just made for rich folk
Get'cha little dance up, BK stand up
Straight to the dancefloor, everybody hands up
Throw it up, get down, fellas hold your pants up
Ladies throw it right back, tell that ***** man up
7. Nelly Furtado - Say It Right
(break it, break it down)
(you don't mean nothing at all to me)
(break it, break it, break it, break it, down)
In the day,
In the night,
Say it right,
Say it all,
Either got it,
or you don't,
You either stand,
or you fall,
When your will,
is broken,
When it slips,
from your hand,
When there's no,
time for joking,
There's a hole,
in the plan,
Oh you don't mean no nothin' at all to me,
no you don't mean no nothin' at all to me,
but you got what it takes to set me free,
Oh you could mean everything to me,
I could say (say)
that i'm not (not)
**lost (lost)
and at fault (fault)
I could say (say)
that i don't (don't)
**love the light (light)
**and the dark (love the light)
I could say (say)
that i don't (don't)
know that I (I)
am alive (alive)
and i'll love (love)
what **I feel (feel)
i could show (show you)
you tonight,
you tonight,
Oh you don't mean no nothin' at all to me,
no you don't mean no nothin' at all to me,
but you got what it takes to set me free,
oh you could mean everything to me,
from my hands,
i could give you,
something,
that i've made,
from my mouth,
i could sing you,
another lyric,
that i've made,
from my body, (from my body)
i could show you, (i could show you)
a place, (a place)
God knows, (**that only God knows)
you should know,
**this space is holy,
do you really,
want to go? (two, three, four)
(you don't mean no nothing at all to me)
(you don't mean no nothing at all to me)
