Im surprised other people know "When I goosestep" lol...great song...

hmm...Im not sure if the name Jem is being used illegally.  THats the name of the band woman that made the song (its an electronica-pop song)...but its probably used legally, I mean, look at bands like the Banana Splits or Annie

I just remembered, the Shins song on the Spongebob soundtrack is called "Soon we'll discover"

75?
I don't know if I could come up with 75 songs I like for an entire decade (well, maybe I could).  ::)

I haven't been listening to the usual radio stations this past year so the only thing I've heard and like for 2004 are

Sunrise - Norah Jones
100 Years - Five for Fighting
Extraordinary - Liz Phair
What'll I Do - Chris Botti & Paula Cole
New Day - Patti LaBelle
Somebody Told Me - The Killers

and I think a couple of them have already been mentioned.

:)

thats kind of ironic, cause all of the ones youve listed have been played on "normal" mainstream radio, while the vast majority of mine are indie
