Top 20 for 2003 - Retrospective

5. Mär. 2008, 17:13

A year of highs and lows. In music, I "discovered" the mp3 format and returned to listen more to mainstream music.

Here we go with the list:

20 - Panjabi MC - Mundiah To Bach Ke What happens when you mix black music with sounds from India? An extremely bizarre and cool song
19 - Uriah Heep - Which Way Will The Wind Blow Uriah Heep returns to top20 with an "Aersomith-style" song
18 - The Moody Blues - Melancholy Man The best song from their best album, A Question Of Balance
17 - The Beatles - You Really Got a Hold on Me The vocals, with alternating singers, create a unique effect
16 - Stacie Orrico - Stuck Pop's comming back to the carts!!!
15 - The Moody Blues - Nights In White Satin Another Moody Blues' entry. It is a great song that suffered a revival that year
14 - Matchbox 20 - Disease Do you remember them? I think this is their best song
13 - Tears for Beers - Drunken Sailor I initially gave a listen to this band just because of their name. And so I discovered a great band. Do it yourself too
12 - Tribalistas - Velha Infância Okay. This song sucks a bit. But it was so ever-present that it was impossible not to put it on the top 20
11 - Julian Lennon - Valotte Valotte is a very good album, here Julian sounds like his father probably would in the 80's
10 - Evanescence - Bring Me To Life By this song, I thought Evanescence would be a great band. But almost all the other songs consist in Amy Lee sobbing
09 - Jacques Brel - Ne Me Quitte Pas Okay, it's grandma's stuff, but sounds good and emotive
08 - Pitty - Máscara This song is fun. It caused tons of laughs during that year
07 - The Beatles - Till There Was You From time to time, I rediscover some Beatles' song
06 - Audioslave - Like A Stone The best thing Rage Against the Machine could have done: changing their singer. At least Chris Cornell sings
05 - George Harrison - Dark Horse Harrison again. A good song that brings me back the images of that year
04 - Bon Jovi - Misunderstood When you think Bon Jovi is over, they return with good songs. And bad video clips **** Edited in Apr 9th, 2009: correcting an injustice made the time the chart was prepared and regretted since then
03 - Steve Miller Band - Fly Like An Eagle A great song from them. The synth sounds at the end are very funny
02 - Simply Red - Stars Most of Simply Red's songs annoy me, but this one is just the opposite. Beautiful
01 - Rick Wakeman - March Of The Gladiators It's instrumental, but who cares? It's powerful and nice. Good song to recover your energies

    I don't understand the 2003 connection. Are you saying that's what you were listening to then? And how do you remember, if so?

    Yes, the 2003 connection is with what I used to listen that year.
    I remember that associating songs to facts that happened that year or even periods (songs I used to listen in certain moments).
    Of course if I had done these charts in 2003, they would be a bit different from the ones from now.
