We’ve created a Spotify playlist to accompany our just-posted Top 100 songs of 1989 readers poll results. As you can see (and hear), the playlist opens with The Jesus and Mary Chain’s “Head On” and closes with The Call’s “Let the Day Begin” — with 97 more songs in between.
This go-around, there’s only one song from our Top 100 that’s missing from Spotify: The Mighty Lemon Drops’ “Where Do We Go From Heaven?,” which came in at #47 on the list.
So here’s 7 hours and 17 minutes of classic tracks from 1988 for your streaming pleasure:
