They put explanation why they choose song, but i think that i can just
now from my head to name another 50 to compete with these ones.
If you know NME you will understand why is it..
i can even bet that they even didn' t heard half of it, but for their "
image"
and similar nonsense they chose like that..
NME is NME . Does NME mean New Musical Enemy...
i must admit that i didn' t hear half of it, and if you pick subjekt of songs
i can name couple thousand sadder than these ones..
i thought that music must be accompanied with lyrics, and enough strong
to make it alive..

my opinion...
