they roll by

Here's the deal, I've ridden this planet around el sol 36 times and every orbit gets better. As such, I'm celebrating with a party at Pepe Delgados on tomorrow, Saturday 5 January. The fine folks in The Rum Fellows and The Separation have agreed to play a few songs so you ought to come by for a spell. Things should start rollin' around 9-9:30-ishishish. Feel free to come by, wish me happy birthday and contribute to my tattoo funds. Anyway, here are some obvious songs about some of my favorite years or maybe they're just some of my favorite songs about obvious years - you'll never know.

a quick afterword: since I used only the most obvious searching techniques, I wasn't able to find any songs that referred to this century - can you help me out here. Only rule: the song must refer directly to the year in the title or lyrics.
