Mel's Weekly Top 20 Sept. 21, 2008

Each week I publish a list of my 20 favorite current hits that is posted to Mel's Weekly Top 20 chart site. Now the list comes to Mel's Internet Universe Music Blog and will be a regular feature of the blog. The chart will be maintained at its original site and this blog will serve as a secondary posting place where all charts starting from this one will be archived.

One thing is that I haven't figured out how to do tabled text in Blogspot, so the formatting of these charts won't be as clean as those posted on the original site.

Anyway for the first chart, here is the list of my favorite current songs that I play on my iTunes and iPods for the week of September 21, 2008:
