i don't know what it is that we define as 'indie-rock', but if we're going to include "TV Eye" by the Stooges in that category, it most definitely deserves to be higher than #977...

#937: Broadcast "Accidentals"


btw, i started one of these at the hieroglyphics message board, except its the top 1000 hip hop songs of all time
so you can jump in on that if you want. www.hieroglyphics.com

it may seem like an original idea to them, but... i also ripped the "word association thread" idea off from Banjo from PFMS. and that's up to 31 pages at Hiero now!

anyway
ROCK!

I'm assuming that the last three will be adjusted to be #'s 932, 931 and 930. So...

#929 UMass - The Pixies

And I reserve the right in advance to pick #531.
