My Top Ten Page

In answer to your question, I am writing this page because YES, I HAVE NO LIFE. I have absolutely NOTHING better to do right now than make this f*cking page. Will I EVER have something better to do? Not f*cking likely.

At least I'm still sane enough to bleep myself.

Hopefully, my mood will improve as I continue writing this page. It's hard to be cheerful when listening to a song with the chorus "Your life's a waste, run away...."

A quick disclaimer: These songs pertain only to the last 4-5 years (this year being 1998). I like plenty of stuff from before that, but it gets too confusing if I start thinking about the oldies, and this isn't exactly an important official document. Also, I'm limiting one per artist on each list.

First comes first:

2. Ode To My Family by the Cranberries
3. Losing My Religion by REM
4. The Wrong Way by Sublime
5. Buddy Holly by Weezer

Top Ten Most Overplayed Songs

I can't say exactly where these songs were overplayed. It couldn't be on MTV, since they only play three videos every hour. In any case, people still groan when I mention these songs. And yes, I realize Green Day is overplayed, but screw you.

1. Ironic by Alanis

3. 1979 by the Smashing Pumpkins
4. Who Will Save Your Soul? by Jewel

8. Semi-charmed Life by Third Eye Blind
9. Missing by Everything But the Girl
10. I'll Be There For You by the Rembrants

Top Ten Songs I've Been Obsessed With

My friends and roommates can assure you that I occasionally become obsessed with a song. I have no idea why this happens, but I suddenly have the need to play the song over and over until everyone else goes away. Well, it doesn't happen too often

1. When I Come Around by Green Day
2. Susanne by Weezer
3. Ode To My Family by the Cranberries
4. All I Want by the Offspring
5. Sucked Out by Superdrag
6. Don't Look Back In Anger by Oasis
7. The Wrong Way by Sublime
8. Unfamiliar by Incubus
9. Loser by Beck
10. You Oughta Know by Alanis

Top Ten Hottest Male Artists

I wasn't going to make this list initially, but then i saw that some people make whole webpages devoted to ranking actresses. You see, by not making this list, I am exhibiting a double standard. And there will be no corresponding list of female artists, because I am a girl.

1. Billie Joe of Green Day
2. Lead singer of Blur
3. Stephan Jenkins of Third Eye Blind
4. Liam Gallagher of Oasis
5. Beck
6. Scott Weiland
7. Rob Thomas of Matchbox 20
8. Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters
9. Gavin Rossdale of Bush
10. Chris Cornell

This is all I can think of right now. If you think of any ideas for top ten lists, you may notify me.
