We’ve created a Spotify playlist to accompany our just-posted Top 100 songs of 1987 readers poll results. As you can see (and hear), the playlist opens with New Order’s “True Faith” and closes with The Fall’s “Hit the North” — with 96 more songs in between.
Once again, two of our Top 100 songs are missing from Spotify: No. 65, Bryan Ferry’s “Kiss and Tell,” and No. 73, Echo & The Bunnymen’s cover of “People Are Strange.”
So here’s 6 hours and 53 minutes of classic tracks from 1987 for your streaming pleasure:
