I recently saw something similar to this on Facebook the other day and it inspired this idea. I wanted to make a list with highlights from my music library in a nice organized way. There isn't an organizational tool quite like alphabetical order. So I am taking my favorite band for each letter, and listing my favorite song from each of those bands (album each song is on in the parentheses).
Soooooooooo here we go
