And this is just a bit of fun, and also something that I am putting a lot of my own time into - so try not to be so negative just becuase the top 18 voted for songs dont reflect your own taste in music ....broden your musical horizons and maybe listen to some of those legendary songs/artists before you call them appauling.... |

It's only supposed to be a bit of fun. Also, just because you've not heard of something doesn't make it rubbish, I personally take great pleasure in listening to bands I've never heard of, discovered some great acts that way. |

I can't believe people are saying they haven't heard of the songs / artists on this list.
I guess I live in a very different world to some people... |

A Day in the life - The Beatles - good, but not as good as While My guitar gently weeps or Day Tripper
Baba O Reily - The Who - I love the Who, but no! 5.15 is much better, as is The Sea Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen - arguably the best ever single of all time Chasing Cars - Snow Patrol - good Don't Wanna Miss A Thing - Aerosmith - good track, but not world class Echoes - Pink Floyd - no should be "wish you were here" Everybody Hurts - REM - excellent Fake Plastic Trees - Radiohead - not in the same division Hallelujah - Jeff Buckley = average good - Cohen is better Hey Jude - The Beatles - excellent How Soon Is Now? - The Smiths - besdsit wankfest Imagine - John Lennon -wife rates it Love will tear us apart - Joy Division - self-indulgent shit November Rain - Guns N Roses - what? That's Entertainment - The Jam -excellent With or Withou You - U2 - excellent |
