I found a couple unrelated music lists.
MSNBC has a list of “cool” songs for summer. I like a few of them alright but not nearly as much as other people do. If you go over to the list, perhaps you’ll luck out and get one of the annoying ones stuck in your head.
A more interesting list is the American Film Institute’s list of top 100 songs From U.S. movies (scroll down). By my count, 16 of the songs are from the 1950s, but we’ve only had 14 in the past 20 years.
Either the AFI has some nostalgic voters, or they don’t make movie music like they used to.
