20. 19. 18. My fave frothy pop song of the year: 17. 16. 15. 14. 13. 12. Is it the video, or is it the song? Can’t decide. This seems about right: 11. Highest-ranked Philly-based artist on the list? Maybe yes, maybe no. Find out on New Year’s Eve day. Until then:

O’Barry, with help from Neil and Stephen Stills, started the Dolphin Project, a nonprofit organization dedicated […]
