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.
