The “Year You Turned 18 Music Meme”

Go to popculturemadness.com and select the year you turned 18. Paste the list of the top 75 songs. Bold the ones you liked; strike the ones you disliked; and italicize the ones you know but don’t exactly like or dislike. The ones you don’t know will stay plain text.

I found this rather curious meme at Mimi's blog. I don't usually discuss popular music, namely because I uh, hardly listen to anything sung in English, save for Anglican evensong and assorted English Renaissance fare. There are an awful lot of songs I have never even heard about, but there the number of songs I have listened to and actually like comes off as a bit of surprise.
