...50, yes 50 of some of the best and some of the worst songs of the year I've recently compiled a 3 CD collection of the hits of 2003, some of which I think are great, some of which are awful and I still like them, and some major hits which even I don't like - but they deserved to be on such a collection. (Basically I'm just putting off writing my philosophy essay ;D)
