''The Xfm Top 1000 Songs of All Time'' is a musical reference book edited by various DJ's from radio station ''Xfm'', first published in 2010. The most recent edition consists of a list of singles and popular album tracks released between 1965 and 2009, published by Elliott & Thompson Limited. The book is arranged alphabetically rather than in the form of a chart, while Brandon Flowers of The Killers provides a foreword. The list was determined by listener votes of the radio station voting on their website, opinions from DJ's and radio play requests on the stations flagship show ''The X-List''. The station broadcasts to London and Manchester on digital DAB radio, and online to the rest of the world, with nearly 1 million listeners. The station also has a close relationship with Australian station ''Triple J''. Each entry in the list is accompanied by a short essay written by a DJ. The entries are accompanied by pictures, quotes, and additional information. As mentioned before, the list not only included singles, but also album-only tracks that entered public knowledge, with Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven" and Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb" being examples. Although the book mostly keeps to alternative rock acts of the present day, as well as classic bands such as The Beatles while the most recent singles in the book take up most of the list, many artists who appeared expressed their achievement as a highlight of their career, with a small number writing on the ''Xfm'' official site and also in the book itself. ==See also== * ''1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die'' * ''1,000 Recordings to Hear Before You Die'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Xfm Top 1000 Songs of All Time」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
