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.

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:
