SPOTIFY THE NOUGHTIES reaches the finishing line with 2009

Andrew Harrison's picture

ImageWell, that's it - let the tickertape fall and the highlights clip roll for we have finished the marathon that is Spotify The Noughties. Click here for the final collaborative playlist of this decade, the 2009 playlist link, and add your favourite tracks from this year. You will be helping to complete the greatest project in popular historiography since the Blue Peter Time capsule.

What shall we do next week? Moves are afoot to choose years at random from the 50-odd year history of rock and roll and have the WORD massive choose a list from there. Let us know if you fancy it, or if you have other ideas, in the comments box below.

THE RULES, ONE LAST TIME
1] One track at a time please, and no complete albums or strings of tracks from the same artist. We reserve the right to nip and tuck.
2] Keep it to music you honestly think is great. This isn't the place to plug obscurities or your mates' bands.

We will be playing the list in the office and you can keep tabs on us at our Last.fm page. The lists for 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002, 2001 and 2000 are now closed to new entries but are of course playable (you can copy them into a new playlist and edit them to your own specifications too). And when we get round to it, we will crunch the lot into a giant Large Hadron Collider-style Best of the Decade list.

Let's start with 1975...

and explode that ridiculous myth that there was no good music around before punk came along once and for all.

My vote for...

Random Years! So I won't spend the week wondering what to put on the week's list like I've done for the last 9 weeks.
