Cogs can think.

It’s that time of year again. My birthday is a’comin’, Jesus is having his party, and the year reaches its end. The Top2000 is back! One million Dutch people voted last year, an absolute record. Here is my list of of ten best songs of all time (2004|2005). The list is changed from last year, but remains fairly similar, with The Eagles and Don McLean still dominating the list. For the first time, a song in Dutch is on the list.

Eagles - The Last Resort (1976)
Eagles - Hotel California (1977)
Don McLean - American Pie (1972)
Don McLean - Vincent (1972)
Bruce Springsteen - The River (1981)
Oasis - Champagne Supernova (1995)
Reinhard Mey - Als De Dag Van Toen (1975)
Bryan Adams - Summer Of ‘69 (1990)
J.J. Cale - Cocaine (1976)
Tracy Chapman - Fast Car (1988)

Still no Fiona Apple (or Sufjan Stevens). Makes sense, I guess, but too bad it is, still.
