Welcome to the biggest musical countdown ever attempted in MATT RADIO history!  Compiling 25 years of chart statistics from all over the world, THE 2003 is our massive recap of the 2,003 most important, most beloved, most enduring pop/rock hits of the past three decades. 

As you listen to MATT RADIO's live online broadcast you'll periodically be thrilled to hear portions of  THE 2003.   You might catch # 1,973, or we might have started that day with # 846.  Some nights we might stream six solid consecutive hours of the countdown.  You never know!  And as you listen (or, hell, even just to kill time when the countdown isn't on the air), you can click here to see the chart in progress and follow along.

"What's gonna be number one?" you ask.  "Where's the top of the list?"  you query.  "How do I know what the top 500 are?" you inquire.  Settle down, pilgrim.  We're working our way up.  These things take time.  We add songs and reveal their positions one at a time.  Not even Matt knows where a band or title lands on the countdown until it pops up.  And you think the suspense is killing YOU? 

Once you click to the countdown, you can access every single song via its own individual link.  Read all about it!  Every song on the chart gets its own page, complete with an artist bio or interview, international chart achievements, MATT RADIO history, and more.  Best of all, many of the songs are enhanced with commentary from key MATT RADIO personalities.  So as the record plays, you'll hear Matt, Vanessa, Jeff the Movie Man, and tons of other music fans talking about that record: why it's a great song, why we remember it today, and whether or not we've ever had sex to it.  (Um... probably not all of us together.)   As you hear the commentary, click around the headshots on that song's page... each one takes you to that commentator's info page.  Click on Jason, it takes you to Jason's page.  Click on Robert, boom, you're at Robert's page.

THE 2003: it's fun, it's educational, it's a blast from the past, and it's interactive!  What else could you want from a radio countdown show, you demanding bastards?

 Check the countdown page every few days, because you never know when a new block of  THE 2003 will be revealed.
