Or, what I'd want on my MP3 player if stuck on a deserted island (with rechargeable batteries and a solar-powered battery charger). A bunch of songs have been left off simply because they've been played to death. Some songs are on here only because I like (try) to sing along, or maybe it has a killer riff/refrain/sequence but the rest of the song is nothing special. 🙂 This page uses affiliate links, which means we earn a tiny (and I do mean tiny) commission if you make a purchase after clicking that link.
