Thunder Road

The 88.5 WXPN site has been toast for the last two days, so I haven't been able to check the final of songs. I was able to listen to the final 20, and it was a great mix! I think two of the songs I chose for my top ten ended up in the official top ten, and a few songs that wound up in the top ten were close contenders for my list: "Into the Mystic" Van Morrison; "In My Life" The Beatles; "Imagine" John Lennon.
Considering that I derived the name of my site, and my email, from the Van Morrison song, i'm surprised i didn't put it in my list. I guess the Left Banke song coulda gone...oh well.
"Thunder Road" hit the number 1 song, which I think is a fitting conclusion to the countdown. Plus, it's my favorite Bruce song. Whenever those countdowns come around, it's always the same songs that wind up in the number one spot: granted, Bruce Springsteen is a usual suspect, but the song that comes out on top is usually "Born to Run." So, it's nice to have a bit of a switch up.
Great list, PSoTD. What a cool mix...really like the Roxy Music selection.
