Top Posts of 2022

We interrupt the annual In Memoriam theme for our eighth annual listing of the most viewed posts of the prior year. Through our (usually) two-week long themes, our international roster of writers address many different kinds of music, and bring different perspectives to their pieces. This year, for some reason, our four most popular posts came from our mid-August "Don't" theme. And we have all sorts of music, albeit with more rock and less jazz than last year.  We have well-known songs and obscurities, one-hit wonders and legends, and one song in Spanglish.

Here are our top 11 posts of 2022 (because No. 11 missed out by only 3 views, and we are inclusive here):

1. Don't--Need This Pressure On (Chant No. 1) 

2. Don't--Beatles Songs With Don't 

3. Don't--Don't You Want Me 

4. Don't--(Don't Fear) The Reaper 

5. Thunder & Lightning--Call Me Lightning 

6. Thunder & Lightning--Thunderclap Newman

7. Paul Songs--Paula Y Fred

8. Back-(Baby Come) Back

9. Begins With A J--Jack Straw

10. Home--I Don't Want To Go Home

11. Paul Songs--Tall Paul
