my list
i don’t think i’ve told this to any friend of mine, but i keep a list of all of my favorite songs at the present, like a personal countdown of mine.
i first made my list in 1999, and it continued until 2001 during my college days in UP Diliman. by graduation and when i began to work, i lost interest in making my lists
but after a friend of ours died in an accident in early 2005, i resumed this habit realizing that music is one of life’s gifts, and knowing how short our life is, it hit on me that small things that you like doing like listening to your favorite songs matter everytime because they give you the life.
so from March 2005 until present it has been my personal practice. used to be i do this monthly, but starting last year i began to do this weekly.
and now i’m sharing the latest in my list. my top 20 favorite songs for the week of December 5-11.
