So here are the guidelines that Paul laid out:
A. One song from each artist only.
B. No remixes
C. Nothing that hasn’t been released yet
D. Nothing from around this date
I tried really really hard to follow these guidelines, but I found myself breaking every one of them one at a time (except for B). Finally, I throw my hands up in resignation and present you my list of favorite songs from the 2006 without any guidelines. There are some tracks that are from Paul’s list (indicated by the *), but I reposted them anyway. So here’s the list. Enjoy!!!!
