MY IDEAL WOW HITS TRACKLISTS: POST 9- WOW HITS 2005

If you have been an avid fan of this site, you probably would have noticed that we have posted many WOW Hits predictions at strategic points during the year for a particular installment. But the predictions were only ‘timely’ for WOW Hits 2015 onwards (basically from when this site was active four years ago until now!). So it’s time to once again revisit another older WOW Hits and be nostalgic, and see if the track listing is really the ‘year’s best’ or not (as we have done previously for other WOW Hits releases that you can view here!). So…you can view the official track list of WOW Hits 2005 on Wikipedia, and then my fantasy list below (which include some tracks the same as the official list, and some tracks different)! Enjoy reading, and coming up with your own ‘official lists’!

    If WOW was doing deluxe editions at the time, maybe ‘Savior,’ ‘Ready to Fly,’ ‘Expressions of Your Love,’ and ‘Here I Am to Worship’ would be on it, idk. There weren’t really 39 remarkable songs warranting attention from that year. Definitely agree that Todd Agnew’s “Grace Like Rain” did not warrant a spot here.
