[footfootfoot]

A friend of mine just turned 50 and I thought a neat present would be to burn a series of discs with one hit song from each year of her life, plus a hit song from the year of conception (music to make babies by)

I've downloaded billboard's top 100 hits for the years in question and I am torn between going with #1 for each year, or going with the best song from each year. (notice what I did there?)
