Radio Marg - Top 100

[jbfins]

Anyone keeping track? I can't listen all day because I have to work. Would be awesome to see the list.

[SMLCHNG]

I'm listening from my work desktop. Not many people here today, so I can get away with it. RM is repeating and restarting a few times, so I logged in/out and picked it up again. Making me laugh and cry.

[LesPaul30]

Good stuff! I have a feeling they'll play it again over the weekend.

[LIPH]

I didn't listen to the whole thing but I caught the end. This is the top 5:

Everybody has their own list, different songs mean different things to different people, and on different days the list might even be different.
Today, here's my top ten list from the above list.
93 First Look
89 Changing Channels
82 Quietly Making Noise
75 Coastal Confessions
51 Twelve Volt Man
48 When the Coast is Clear
24 Little Miss Magic
19 Growing Older But Not Up
16 Havana Daydreamin'
10 He Went to Paris

YMMV

[captainalex]

Thank for posting the list.

[Caribbean Soul]

Penny to the rescue!
I have it in excel and had no CLUE as to how I could post that here!

[TravisMcGeeBahiaMar]

A top 10 that can match up against almost any act. ( maybe not the Beatles, but who can?) I particularly love “Bubbles Up” in the top 10.
“Bubbles Up” will go down as one of the great “farewell” songs of all time.

[jbfins]

Not that anyone will care, but I did this. I did not look at the list before listening and posting here, except i did have to look up #52 because somehow the Universe was nice enough to me that I missed it in real time and did not subject me to the disappointment that I would have felt. Please note that 100 - 36 are a summary. After #35 is in real time as I heard them without knowing what would come next. Please further note that Champagne (Veuve Cliqcuot) and cannabis consumption started at 100. Paella making started at #39.

#98 - Portugal or PIE - No. Sorry. Not Top 100.
#96 La Vie Dansante - Uh sorry. This is the song that I listened to to say goodbye. You can argue with me on that issue, but this is at least top 50.
#85 My Gummie - 2020's version of WDWGDAS. Do not care that Sir Paul is involved. This is not top 100.
#75 Costal Confessions - Too low. Way too low.
#69 Book on The Shelf - Too low.
#52 Far Side of The World - I missed it. Thank God. I would have started drinking rum right here. This is top 30 easy.
#50 Love And Luck - Was my wedding song. Now you have made me look bad.
39 Death of An Unpopular Poet - Nope. Could actually ruin my evening. Are you kidding me! WHAT THE F-CK!!!
#38 Floridays (upbeat version from Hoot) - Should I just stop listening. Because this is now a joke. Like an actual joke.
#37 Jamaica Mistaka - I have lost all faith and am now only staying to see how bad this can get. What is next? Glory Days?

#35 Pascagoula Run - Not unhappy with this. Needed a real pick up anyway.
#34 Wino - Feel like it should be higher. Really feeling top 10. "Living my life like a song." Best summary of his life.
#33 Cowboy - No. Sorry. Don't care. Too low. That's top 20. "It's really not that long a stay." One of his best lines. I might have to switch to rum.
#32 Down at the Lah De Dah - ARE YOU KIDDING ME! Okay. Now I am going to rum. (Plantation XO 20th Anniversary)
#31 Coconut telegraph - Maybe not too bad. But I am sure the rum helped.
#30 I Have Found Me a Home - His love song to the place that is responsible for everything. No. Sorry. Top 10. (I am warning RM and anyone who reads further that the rum might make me angry.)
#29 Gypsies in The Palace - I really do not want to have to drink more rum. Please do not do this to me.
#28 Pencil Thin - Not so sure. Just because it was a concert staple does not make it worthy of top 30.
#27 WDWGDAS - Ha! Okay. FIne.
#26 Coast of Carolina - Okay. I am okay with this. Only because it mentions the phone booth.
#25 We Are The Parents - No. Sorry. Go below 50.
#24 Little Miss Magic - Thinking this goes top 15. Maybe even top 10.
#23 Nautical Wheelers - Maybe okay.
#22 Captain and The Kid - Sorry. Top 10. Do people not know anything! Are you seriously going to tell me that CHIP is better than this?
#21 Fruitcakes - Thinking this is low. It started a revival in his music. This is the one that converted me in 1994.
#20 Jolly Mon - This makes sense. (Time to re-group, this could get bumpy. Lots of Songs Played To Death are still left and maybe a few obscure heavy hitters could make a surprise visit. This is where I figured we would start to see how many of us are actually out there.)
#19 Growing Older But Not Up - Not feeling this up here at all.
#18 Weather Is Here- Gotta say, I do love this song. Helps that I live on Long Island Sound and I love DTSC.
#17 Volcano - Okay. Okay. But Cheeseburger has to come next.
#16 Havana Day Dreaming - Took long enough.
#15 Trying To Reason - And this is exactly the kind of stuff I was hoping for. Came out of left field. A1A!!!!
#14 Breathe - Okay. Now I just need to breathe... Could be a little too high, but I am not going to complain. But makes me think of something else that M. Betton did with him.
#13 Cheeseburger - Partyheads Unite!
#12 Last Mango - Wow. Okay. Feel like this is the top ten 2 spots early.
#11 Boat Drinks - Ha, I thought it was an intermission ad! Can't completely knock it. I kind of want to. But kind of can't.
#10 He Went To Paris - No. Top 5. Too early.
#9 FIns - Dear God. I forgot about this. Ugh. Participation Trophy? Or right of passage?
#8 Tin Cup - Is this on the yellow album? If not, freaking awesome. If it is, is that all we get from here on out?
#7 Bubbles Up - Great. Now I am crying.
#6 CILCIA - 100% okay with this.
#5 Margaritaville - Wow. Okay. Maybe I can have some faith. Wow.
#4 SOASOAS
#3 Come Monday
#2 OPH - The only song I absolutely had to hear live in concert. This is the whole enchilada.
#1 Pirate - Yup. Ballad, Fingers, simple, subtle, smart, pure.

Some songs that off the top of my head should be here: Someday I Will, Happily Ever After Every Now And Then, Big Rig

This was an awesome experience. It was like being at a concert, but in a way, better.

[jbfins]

They are now playing live versions of the songs. Freaking awesome idea!

Yes! Very cool idea to mix it up a bit!

I'm curious! How did you find out number 52?!?!
I myself was keeping track live, and they skipped 52.
I listened 3-4 other times to the countdown and they skipped 52 every time.

Thank you for any help!

No idea. Wasn't my list. I copied from another PH who posted it on FB.

DANG IT!!

I've messaged Kirsten and Marg-radio directly to ask, and no response.
Thanks for the response.

[SeaFans]

Wonder Why we ever go home off "you had to be there" is a top 7. Miss You so badly is top 10/12.

I do not know what times you listened to the countdown, but I absolutely heard them play FSOTW in spot #52! It is one of the songs that makes me think of Garry and it was right before 12 Volt Man, which is a long-time friend's screen name!

I listened live the first round.
My buddy was listening live the first round too, on different devices and we both wondered what happened.

I listened live again at the replay from 6pm that same night. Same result.
I listened again at the first replay on Saturday, and skipped again!
I have the full XM subscription, but maybe I didn't pay enough!

Thank you so much, nevertheless!
