Another Best of 2014 List For Your Consideration

Written by contributor Mariel Lorenz

With only a few hours left of 2014 around and seeing other end of year/best of music lists, I thought why didn't I put together my favorite songs/albums/concerts of 2014. Fortunately, my friend Michael had done one and was kind enough to let me share his.

Michael Hochman is a marketing expert, writer, ex TV programmer, and a huge fan of many bands from Canada. For the last couple of years he has put together his own year end lists (50 in alphabetical order) which you can see here and here. He adds his own thoughts to why a particular song made his list and he includes a You Tube playlist of all the songs, so you can start listening instantly.

For 2014, Michael found that there were only 40 songs he wanted to include this year and he had ranked them. We talk about music a lot and certainly we will talk about this list. But isn't that's what so great about having other friends passionate about music? When you both like a band, you will equally contribute positives and when you disagree you will defend the artists like a mamma lion defends her cubs. 

So with that -THE MPH 50 (-10): THE 40 BEST INDIE/ALT SONGS OF 2014

Thanks to Dan for letting me share this. Hope everyone has a safe and healthy new year!
