500 Best Songs of All Time (according to Rolling Stone)

  Quote

For the first time in 17 years, we’ve completely remade our list of the best songs ever. More than 250 artists, writers, and industry figures helped us choose a brand-new list full of historic favorites, world-changing anthems, and new classics

Commence the bickering.

I started to get mad at this list then realized I don't care enough and now I'm having a lovely day

“Industry figures”

(eye roll)

are any of the featured artists in there?

just curious

Im afraid Rolling Stone

is Ziggomatically

Irrelevant

Since that 1 star Drukqs review

Never Forget

"Milk Man" by "Aphex Twin" is song #1

I would like some milk from the milkman's wife's titssss

I welcome death.

Kraftwerk's Trans-Europe Express at 304 is probably closest we can get.

Radiohead is on top 50 apparently

That's quite a large Spotify playlist

lol Fight the Power is the 2nd best song ever written?  Didn't see that coming.  Wonder what the criteria is... other than there is none.  I only looked at the top 3.  Might check out that Sam Cooke one out to see what it is.

That page killed my browser.

not reading but i'm just gonna assume it's a bunch of boring rock & pop classics again, but this time with more token identity group representation

edit: I knew this came out way earlier https://www.discogs.com/Daddy-Yankee-Gasolina/master/212936 since I remember living in Colombia at time of release and I had to endure this played everywhere every day for the four years I had left in the country since then.

Man this takes me back, I remember being very weirded out by like 20 old italian women dancing to this in the ocean.. very absurd moment

Of all times?

yea, man. those "industry figures" need to figure some shit out.

Looking at the top it seems very fleeting, heavy US left-liberal political bias (movement-schmoovement), thanks i'll pass and this shitty journal can suck dick, along with Bob Dylan & Rolling Stones

21. Billie Holiday "Strange Fruit"

20. Robyn "Dancing On My Own"

If I didn't have a donor card, I'd stick a live hand grenade up my arse and call it a day

lol did Elvis make the list?

Also can you believe this didnt make it, the nerve

I feel like if they'd even listened to that song, there's no way Fight the Power would have made second place.  Already there's a better song.

Still couldn't pay me to click the link, but did Panama make the list?  If not serious omission IMO

Cant believe they didn't put in my soundcloud song. I even emailed it to them.

lizzo 497

miles davis 492
