The Motown Top 250 Countdown (#80-61)

Hello, my friends, old and new! It's not the weekend, which means you're wondering what's the deal with our Motown countdown. Let me explain. I have noticed that the countdown's fanbase is gradually shrinking. Which may be due to a lot of things that are beyond my control - but one thing that is within my control is to fiddle with the format: perhaps there were too many words and not enough songs. So, from today, I will double the number of songs compared to last time (actually it's quadruple than the number we began with) and cut down the words to the absolutely necessary ones. Also, not the weekend anymore: the countdown will be published on weekdays and will be over very soon. Here goes...
