Welcome back to one of my favorite recurring features (although it does result in some agonizing decisions). Since this will be the second go-around, I’m calling it “Songs By The Letter, Side 2.”

The rules are simple, just list your top 25 songs that start with the letter “A”. You can rank them if you want, or just list them in any old order. There was an unofficial house rule last time around to only list one song for each artist, just so there would be greater variety, but you don’t have to follow that if you don’t want to. It wouldn’t hurt my feelings if you found a letter with 25 different Beatles songs and listed them all.

After the letter Z, we’ll have one final post for songs that start with numbers or any other non-alphabetic symbols.

Finally, here’s a link to the first go-around for A in case you’re looking for inspiration. (I apparently didn’t start using the one song per artist house rule until later in the alphabet.)

(Pictured in the header: All Hands On The Bad One by Sleater-Kinney. Not just a great song, but the title track of a great album.)
