Inspired by Scott Woods' list of His Top 10 Canadian singles, here are my Top 10 Connecticut songs. Criteria have something to do with important bandmember being reared in Connecticut, rather than, say, living there in your old age like Keith Richards. (And if you think the pickings are sparse for Connecticut, you should try Colorado, which gives us the Fray and Big Head Todd And The Monsters. And a bunch of people I've never heard of who for all I know may be good. Actually, Philip Bailey of Earth, Wind & Fire is from Denver.)

Oh yeah, and I put a limit of three on the Cassie songs allowable. And the only eligible Monkees songs were ones that Peter actually had something to do with:

1. Cassie "Turn The Lights Off"
2. Gene Pitney "Mecca"
3. Cassie "In Love With U"
4. Cassie "Me & U"
5. The Wildweeds "No Good To Cry"
6. Steam "Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye"*
7. The Monkees "Daydream Believer"
8. Weezer "The Good Life"
9. Sonic Youth "Kotton Krown"
10. Moby "Honey"

*Seems to contain a xylophone or glockenspiel.
