Trainwreck’d Society’s Top 100 Songs of 2020 Part 1: 100-76 [Exclusive]

 

 

 

Folks, there really isn’t much I can say that hasn’t already been beaten like a Covid related-dead horse. This year has sucked in so many ways. Even when looking back on the good thing(s) that occurred in November, it still doesn’t quite take away of the sting of what 2020 has left behind. In fact, to acknowledge that there was still so much wonderful content out there in the world of film, television, and music is a pretty sad take in its own right. It just seems that so many of us had a whole lot more time to consume the arts. Which we should always be doing, but when it’s pushed upon you, it’s not nearly as fun.

Well, now that I got that downer ass first part of the introduction out of the way, I do have to admit that, possibly because of having more time, I did manage to listen to some wonderful tunes this year. Although we once again did not showcase nearly as many artists this year as we have in the decade past, it doesn’t mean that I didn’t get the e-mails (looking at all you fine PR folks, thank you). It doesn’t mean that throughout the underground and mainstream media world, there wasn’t an abundance of great songs to check out and enjoy.

This year’s list sees quite a collection of brand new faces, some that only came to the site as near as 2019, and some classic folks who have been regularly showing up on our lists for the last decade, as they never cease to impress. Hell, this year will even include our very first (and probably last) holiday song we have ever had. So Folks, I hope you enjoy the list, and if you find yourself looking for something that you may have missed throughout this insane year, give these folks a listen! You’ll love it. I guard-damned-tee it. Enjoy!

In Part 1 of our Top 100 Songs of 2020, we come out the gates hard with some recognizable faces, as well as some less familiar but equally as talented folks. From pirate themed party rock anthems, to 90’s darlings coming back around, to arguably the biggest hit of the summer, there is something for everyone in this first segment. And spoiler alert (sort of) you can bet that there will definitely be some returning faces in the days to come. And if you are a regular reader (Hi Dad!) of the site, you probably won’t have too hard of a time figuring out who they may be. I hope you all enjoy this eclectic mash up of indie folk, alternative rock bangers, and twerk anthems. See you tomorrow!
