Santiago Bilinkis l Risk and Reward - Trying to live a life out of the comfort zone

Here I am with the second edition of the Bilinkis Top 20 Songs! After the debate generated in the comments to the previous post (in Spanish), this month comes with an improved layout and some thoughts.

On one hand, for those who complained for the lack of music in Spanish, Catupecu enters one more song so that makes two of them!

And that has nothing to do with the fact that my brother Mariano has recorded and mixed this album and the last few from the band. The acoustic cover version of “Seguir viviendo sin tu amor” is fabulous and if you haven’t heard it yet I recommend you do it now.

On another hand, the strongest critic of all was that because of mp3 there were no two songs by the same band. Well, again, Catupecu has two!

Lastly, before we move on to the ranking, despite my own resistence please note that the songs ranked #10 and #14 reveal my 80’s side. In the end I believe that regardless when you were born, we all carry a little 80’s side inside of us… For those who want to comment: why do you think the 80’s were soooo good and there was not a decade like that before or after?

Now, the top 20:
