In 1999, CFNY (Edge 102) created a list of the Top 1002 songs of All Time. The Tragically Hip had 15 songs crack the top 500. Those songs were the following:

NOIS - 6
Blow at High Dough - 13
Little Bones - 23
Fifty Mission Cap - 63
Grace Too - 72
Courage - 79
100th Meridian- 87
Locked - 147
Nautical - 210
Twist My Arm - 234
Scared - 352
38 Years Old - 383
Gift Shop - 432
Looking For A Place To Happen -467
Bobc -481

If you were forced to create a list of your Top 15 Tragically Hip Songs of All Time, how would it compare to the list above?

Obviously an All Time list is very subjective but it has to be more than just your current favourite 15 Hip songs. This requires some thought. How do you define "Top Hip songs of All Time"? That is up to you. My question is this:

How many songs on your "Top 15 Hip songs of All Time" would come from albums after 1999?

This would include the albums:
Music @ Work
In Violet Light
In Between Evolution
World Container
We Are The Same
Now For Plan A

Feel free to post your entire list, just the songs from after 1999 or simply answer the poll. The choice is yours.

lots more than 15
I will not give up. My face is set,my gait is fast,my goal is heaven,my road is narrow,my way is rough,my companions are few,my guide is reliable,my mission is clear. I cannot be bought,compromised,detoured,lured away,turned back,diluted or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice,hesitate in the presence of adversity,negotiate at the table of the enemy,ponder at the pool of popularity,or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I will not give up,shut up or slow down....Blessed Be!

Wow, this is hard. I had to make a list of my favourite Hip songs, and off the top of my head I had 20, 9 of which were post '99. Here's the lists I made, although they are in no particular order re:1-20. Of the post '99 songs, I would say 7 of them would be in the top 15, to answer the poll, with M@W and Dire Wolf not making the cut.

Man I'd love to hear all these songs in one setlist!

Post '99:
You're Everywhere
Dark Canuck
Dire Wolf
M@W
We Want To Be It
At Transformation
Vaccination Scar
It Can't Be Nashville Every Night
Goodnight Josephine

'99 and earlier:
Grace Too
Nautical
Greasy Jungle
Titanic
Impossibilium
Escape
Locked
Poets
ABAC
Flamenco
Gift Shop
