Best of 2007

During the past week there have many "Best of 2007" lists published and here is my list to add to those other pointless lists.

But I have some problems.

I can't do a "Best Movies of 2007" because I've only went to the movies three times in 2007.
(I saw The Simpson's Movie, the Harry Potter movie, and Enchanted)

I only read one book that was actually published during 2007, so no best books list.
(It was the Harry Potter book)

I also can't do a best CD list because I haven't bought a CD in over a year.
(But I can recommend Thirteen Tales of Love and Revenge by The The Pierces, Betcha Bottom Dollar by The Puppini Sisters, Era Vulgaris by Queens of the Stone Age, Icky Thump by The White Stripes, Fort Nightly by White Rabbits, The Needles The Space by Straylight Run, Paris-Berlin by Stereo Total, Inside Out by Emmy Rossum, and The Black and White Album by The Hives

Buuuuuuut, I listened to and downloaded lots of songs in 2007, so:

The Best Songs of 2007

10.

I have such a girl crush on Rihanna; she's to pretty and perfect

A trippy folksy anti-war lullaby thingy.

7.
Song: "This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race"

Sounds like The Carpenters, and I mean that in a good way

5.

49. I'm Too Sexy, Right Said Fred (1992)
50. My Heart Will Go On, Celine Dion (1998)

Hey now, some of those songs are pretty good, I think. Some suffer from overexposure; they were overplayed to the point people became sick of of them, but that shouldn't take away from the song's original greatness.

Then again, some of those songs on the list are pretty awful.


50. My Heart Will Go On, Celine Dion(1998) - Come on! That's a good song. I'm not afraid to admit I like the Titanic song!

49. I'm Too Sexy, Right Said Fred (1992) - He's too sexy for his cat! That's funny!

45. Mesmerize, Ja Rule featuring Ashanti (2002) - So bad! Ja Rule can't sing and Ashanti can sort of sing but she just sing the same song over and over...

44. I'll Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That), Meat Loaf (1993) - But I love this song!

41. We Didn't Start The Fire, Billy Joel (1989), 42. The Sounds Of Silence, Simon & Garfunkel (1965), 43. Follow Me, Uncle Kracker (2000) - Why are these songs included?

33. Barbie Girl, Aqua (1997) - This is a silly song! How can anyone take it serious enough to hate it?

25. I'll Be Missing You, Puff Daddy, featuring Faith Evans and 112 (1997) - Why did Puff Daddy have to ruin a great Police song with his awful singing?

22. Courtesy Of The Red, White And Blue (The Angry American), Toby Keith (2002) This song is terrifying! It makes "God Bless the USA" seem subtle.

9. American Life, Madonna (2003) - One rap about soy lattes and everyone's against you

4. Rollin', Limp Bizkit (2000) - It's a horrible song, but I don't think it's Limp Bizkit worst. That song about breaking stuff is worse

1. We Built This City, Starship (1985) - It's lame and just really strange in some parts, but is it the lamest? The strangest? I don't know
