I’ve maintained my Top 20 charts since 1990 (the very first #1 song? Release Me by Wilson Phillips). This year, the Top 20 Singles and Tracks chart was whittled down to 10 in November, owing primarily to the fact that I wasn’t listening to current Christian and secular pop music as often as I used to. Nevertheless, here are my personal 20 favorite singles and tracks of 2007.
1. Unrestrained, Mandisa. (9 weeks at #1)
