End of the year lists.

December 5, 2001

End of the year lists. I'm striking early this year because I have to and because I don't see much changing the list in the next month. A few comments before you read on: movies sucked this year, making this list made me realize there was a ton of great music, a bunch of hot singles were missed because I didn't do a singles list.
