I often see lists with titles like ’50 places to visit before you die’ and ’20 pasta dishes to try before you’re 50′.
Then I saw ’1000 songs everyone must hear’ in the Guardian and I was surprised by some of the choices.
I asked some of the people I work with for their Top 10 lists for songs they think everyone should hear at least once in their lives. It might be because it has personal significance, it might have been groundbreaking or it might simply have been a great piece of music.
There is no right or wrong, these are personal opinions, but it creates some interesting lists and some fantastic listening as well.
