Dominator’s Top 50 of 2002
Normally, this is the point where I list my favourite Top 50 tracks of theyear and those that failed to make it. However, for the first time ever Icould only find 39 tracks out of the entire year, and some of those werefrom the same bands, so that made it 33 separate bands, and I generallyonly include one track per band.
I’ve now decided that since there are so few listed below that I won’t be doinga weekly look at the top singles of 2002 as there weren’t that many.
The 39 tracks in alphabetical order are:
- A: Nothing
