Sinuous Mag Presents: Teonny Spears’ 2012 Flashback – The Top 40 Songs Of The Year

Teonny Spears Shares His Top 40 Favorite 2012 Songs from Rihanna, Kanye West, Cassie, Big Sean and Many More

2012 will soon come to an end and it was an interesting year in music, though not as fulfilling as last year for me.

There were still some great songs, artists, and moments that caught my attention, and now through New Year’s Eve, we will be sharing Teonny‘s favorite songs, albums, and more from the year.

Feel free to gives us your two cents or make your own lists to share with us here at Sinuous Magazine.

Kicking off this short series titled, Teonny’s 2012 Flashback, is the list of the top 40 songs of the year.

It was hard for me to do this, mainly because there are a lot of songs that I loved that weren’t even singles.

What was even harder for me was deciding how many songs I would include on the list and I spent days re-writing and re-adding songs over and over until I felt like I had it just right. Take a look at the list below:
