421. Young Blood: The Coasters- This was their first big hit. The vocals sound a bit advanced for the period. IMO the Coasters have had better songs.
422. I Can't Help Myself: The Four Tops- The second Four Tops hit.
423. The Boys of Summer: Don Henley- Lost youth and lost love make good song material. Henley tweaked his seventies Eagles sound a bit and added a haunting guitar. This reminds me of 1984-85.
424. Juicy: The Notorious BIG- Jan Wenner probably figured he needed a token Biggie Smalls song, so he tossed in this.
425. Fuck tha Police: NWA- Is this ghetto reporting or just guys trying to make a buck? Either way, it was a milestone for hip hop as the genre moved away from Run DMC.
426. Suite: Judy Blue Eyes: Crosby, Stills, & Nash- This is one of my least favorite songs ever. However, the three vocal harmonies were revolutionary.
427. Nuthin' But a G Thang: Dr. Dre- Another milestone for hip hop. Reminds me of 1993!
428. It's Your Thing: The Isley Brothers- It's about freedom...and has since ended up in commercials and television shows galore.
429. Piano Man: Billy Joel- Getting hip deep into iconic songs now.
430. Blue Suede Shoes: Elvis- Total awesomeness.
