Top Ten Medal

Famous quotes containing the words top and/or ten:

“We fight our way through the massed and leveled collective safe taste of the Top 40, just looking for a little something we can call our own. But when we find it and jam the radio to hear it again it isn’t just ours—it is a link to thousands of others who are sharing it with us. As a matter of a single song this might mean very little; as culture, as a way of life, you can’t beat it.”
—Greil Marcus (b. 1945)

“I was ten when they buried you.
At twenty I tried to die
And get back, back, back to you.”
—Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)
