Top 100 Songs of 2017

I just want to talk to ya nga ang nanguna sa atong listahan sa tuig 2017 ay mula sa isang Bisayang Dako nga babae. Can’t believe it’s been 5 years already.

And when that Cebuano verse kicked in, it was DOPE!

Top Song Picks of 2002 & 2007

Welcome to Spinnin’ Rabbit‘s “Top Picks of Each Year,” where I’ll be taking you back in time and sharing with you what were my favorite songs from the past. Here’s the list per year so far: 2000, 2001, 2005, 2006, 2010, 2011, 2015, 2016, 2019, 2020, and last year.

John Mayer‘s debut single, ‘No Such Thing,’ was my song pick two decades ago. I still remember this was one of the songs played on Cebu CHR/Top40 radio station UR105 Ultimate Radio before the frequency was reformatted to adult contemporary in the summer of 2002. Recently, I just found out the actual meaning of the song. It is about creating your career path.

Five years later, American singer, Akon released his third single, ‘Don’t Matter‘ from his second studio album, “Konvicted.” The reggae fusion-R&B song was my favorite back in 2007. We can hear the lively Calypso Remix in the final scene of the music video.

Looking for more throwback song picks from previous years? I got you. Listen to the Picks of the Decade 2000s Spotify playlist here:

Top Songs of 2005 (+ 2000 & 2015)

Sixteen years ago, my journey began. Semestral break or October of 2004 was when I started a hobby of making lists of my favorite songs of every month or year. I was in elementary back then. The following January was when I paid attention to what songs I enjoyed and resonated the most each month. (See the top picks of the years 2010, 2019, and 2020)

Nothing compares to the good times when Eric Kupper’s beach mix to Bonnie Bailey‘s dance anthem “Ever After” was a vacation soundtrack here in the Philippines. It spent 16 weeks at number 1 in Y101 Cebu’s Weekend Top 20 that eventually became their (and my personal) top song of the year 2005.

Ever After – Bonnie Bailey

Meanwhile, Akon‘s third single from his debut studio album “Trouble” was my second favorite pick of 2005.

Lonely – Akon

It was a long time ago. The full top 60 songs of 2005 recorded got lost. Here’s the surviving draft where I listed down five new songs that I wanted each month:
