Along with the top 10 albums we've decided this year to also tell everyone what our top 100 songs of the last year were. My Friend the Chocolate Cake toped the list with their amazing instumental tv theme tune, while the band's lead singer David Bridie made it into the top 20 two more times time with the closing track to his Hotel Radio album Stumble Away at #10 and looking after ourselves again at #13. A few of Mark Gardner's acoustic versions of the classic songs he sung with Ride made the list however it was his beautiful new solo tune Beautiful Ghosts that made the top 10. Overall however Gelbison had the most coverage, with their fantastic debut 1704 still getting rotation in the TRM offices and their awesome follow up See the World being released this year the band managed to get a total of 7 songs into the list the highest of which being all the rage at # 3.
