Edge 102's Top 102 of 2007

radio

My radio is tuned to 102.1 as I listen to their top 102 countdown of 2007.  I can't remember the last December 31 I didn't do this, it's sort of an annual tradition of mine.

This year I'll record the top ten live as I listen.  Reload this page every few minutes and you'll get an updated list.  When it's done, I'll throw my two cents at the bottom of this entry.

  1. Silversun Pickups - Lazy Eye
  2. Incubus - Anna Molly
  3. Alexisonfire - Boiled Frogs
  4. The White Stripes - Icky Thump
  5. Finger Eleven - Paralyzer
  6. Linkin Park - What I've Done
  7. Tokyo Police Club - Nature of the Experiment
  8. Rise Against - Prayer Of The Refugee
  9. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Snow (Hey Oh)
  10. The Fratellis - Flathead

Only two songs appeared on both this CFNY list and my personal top ten of 2007.  There would have been more overlap, but I delisted a few of their picks because the song was released in 2006.

Nothing shocking here.  I'm still surprised at how overrated that Finger Eleven song is.  I'm not a huge fan of that Chili Pepper song, either.  I'm a big fan of 60% of this top ten, including their choice for #1.

Bonus thought: How old is Martin Streek?  He's been on the Edge forever.  Seriously, I can't remember listening to 102.1 without Streek.  He's got to be pushing 60.

That's it for me, I'm logging off for the year...  Happy New Year everyone.
