The Big Paws Furtive Forty 2010 100-41 — Bubbling Under

This is the start of the Top 100 tracks of 2010, based on our thoughts and the votes you’ve sent in. We’ll be doing two countdown shows: 40-21 and 20-1 (very very soon), but first here’s the 60 tracks that didn’t quite make the cut to be in the Furtive Forty.

The rules? Songs we like, no two by the same artist, released in 2010. As the rodent might say, “fairly easys”. Here’s a Spotify Playlist that will contain as may of the tracks as appear on Spotify.
