This is one of the more diverting lists to make because we don't normally include compilations, EPs, or singles in any of the lists here. There are always great nuggets, though, and we've got seven tracks from EPs, one from a 7", and two from compilations this year. Piling on the riotous fun is that we get to showcase great songs from otherwise mediocre records [six of the remaining thirty tracks won't be anywhere near the big list on Friday]. You'll remember many of these tracks if you've been following the TToTM mixes, but in some cases, there are other songs from albums featured on the list that may have aged better. Also, I disqualified extremely long songs; don't be fooled by the metal, this is a mix of pop music.
