This time of year is when everyone and their mom puts out their "Best of" lists/playlists. Some of them will have very strict criteria, others will try to seem cool with their obscure song selections that no has has ever heard of before causing you to question how you apparently missed hearing 90% of the best songs this year.
My criteria was simple: 1. What do I listen to the most 2. Rank them in some arbitrary, biased, subjective manner.
So rather then calling this a best of 2014, lets just call it my favorite 114 songs from this year, and consider them ranked in my order.
