Alphabetical compilation

pickarooney

Just for a laugh, I picked songs by 26 artists, one for each letter of the alphabet and put them in a sorted list. They wouldn't necessarily be the best songs by each artist or even the best artist for that letter, but I tried to keep some balance and do it as quickly as possible.

I might make a few more of these based on people's suggestions.

Arcade Fire - Tunnels
Beck - Sexx Laws
Cat Stevens - If You Want to Sing Out
Death Cab For Cutie - Soul Meets Body
Elbow - One Day Like This
