VH1s Top 100 One Hit Wonders
Strike what you hate, bold what you like, and italicize that which you could care less about one way or the other. Leave the rest alone.
Note from eep: What? If the choices are hate, like, and couldn't care less about, then why are there any left to leave alone? Shouldn't these three emotions pretty much cover everything? Hmmm. I'm changing the rules. Srike what you hate, bold what you like. Italicize the songs you don't know (or just can't remember if you know them), leave the ones you don't care about alone.
