Andrew's Top 120 - Favourite Songs of 2015

Lots of Canadian bands this year (maybe because I've been listening to SiriusXM's THE VERGE channel, which is primarily music by Canadian bands). 2015 was a particularly bad year for music, well music on commercial radio at least (need I remind you that only a few weeks ago Justin Bieber had 16 songs in Billboard's top 100).
