Time Out 1000 Songs to Change Your Life

This book is a celebration of music's transformative power: how it shocks and soothes, frightens and comforts, amuses and appals, but above all how it moves us, perhaps when we least expect it. Over the course of more than 30 essays and features, a hand-picked array of writers, critics and musicians explore the songs that made a difference: to their lives, the lives of others and to music itself.
