Happy Birthday Arizona: 100 Songs that Define Arizona, Pt. 4

"Rejoice despite the fact this world will tear you to shreds/Rejoice because you're trying your best." -- "Rejoice," by Andrew Jackson Jihad

The goal of finding Arizona's 100 greatest songs was hardly easy. We asked our readers to tell us what songs have defined Arizona over the past century. As we combed through e-mail submissions, one thing became clear: Arizona's musical heritage is as diverse, fascinating, and complicated as the people who live here.

In addition to submissions, we dove into New Times archives, consulted historians, musicians, record collectors, scoured blogs, and slipped into YouTube rabbit holes to complete this list, focusing on artists you might've heard any given night in a dusty nightclub or bar.

Read on for entries 76-100, showcasing some of the best music of the last decade. See you in another 100!
