A Gigantic List of Every Song I've Ever Played on My Radio Show

So last week was the last episode of my college radio show Sidestream. It also happened to be the coolest radio show to ever exist, but that’s purely by coincidence. It ran (almost) every Tuesday, and there ended up being 17 two-hour episodes of it in total. I’m really proud of it and how it all turned out…but none of that really matters. You’re just here for the music, which is perfectly fine. After all, that’s what Sidestream was really about. You’d really be doing the bands themselves a favor by checking them out. So do it. In fact, I will secretly judge you if you don't check out these songs. So, without further ado, here is all the music I ever played on Sidestream in one gigantic list…
