394. Colour Me by Blue Aeroplanes
Year Released: 1991

Nominated by John in Murphysboro, Illinois who says: Brilliant tune from a band that deserves a wider audience.
395. Waiting for the End of Days by The Bargain
Year Released: 2021
Released On: Hindsight-2020
Nominated by Robbie of Homegrown who says: This is a pretty much brand new act. Formed as the pandemic creeped in- persevering that and some incredible medical setback- this band recorded one of the consummate pandemic songs- and there have been a ton. The Bargain will be a band you’ll all be familiar with very soon-that fine.
396. American Screams by Arkells
Year Released: 2018
Released On: Rally Cry
Nominated by DJ Starling of Bump in the Night.
397. It Don’t Mean A Thing by Ella Fitzgerald
Year Released: 1957
Released On: Live in Europe
Nominated by Cath from Buffalo who says: I love the way Duke and Louis performed this song but Ella is who made it memorable to me. We listened to a lot this kind of music while I was growing up.
398. Eventually by Tame Impala
Year Released: 2015
Released On: Currents
Nominated by DJ Way of Wes Dissect who says: Eventually’s heavy bass necessitates headphones. Despite the lyrics’ depiction of a failed relationship, this song reminds me of some of my happiest moments, i.e. driving with my friends in the sun and singing our hearts out.
399. Human Nature by Michael Jackson
Year Released: 1982
Released On: Thriller
Nominated by Rick Re:Action who says: I have a long history with Thriller. Fond memories of listening to my tape on my Fisher Price tape player dancing around my grandparents’ house. My grandmother exclaiming, “I like that Thriller song – it reminds me of the Monster Mash!,” is a very vivid memory. Human Nature is the song that has stuck with me the most from it. Penned in part by a member of Toto who was born in Connecticut in fact! And let’s not forget what a killer break sampled by many this one has! I honestly thought of putting SWV’s “Right Here (Human Nature)” on this list in its place (for a variety of reasons).
400. Tonite Tonite by Mello-Kings
Year Released: 1957
Released On: Herald label single
Nominated by Jim ‘The Curator’ of The Wax Museum Show.
