C'MON!! November Rain should be in the top 10, Hazard?? Didn't Richard Marx dissappear after that came out?

Would NOT be my list, not by a long shot! Where is Glenn Miller, Where is Nat King Cole, where are The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Bob Dylan, Yes, Moody Blues, Pink Floyd, Bob Marley -- and I'm just thinking of wonderful wonderful songs as I'm listing these. And they are all missing...

Although I did LOVE several bands listed, Dave Mathews, Counting Crows, Alice in Chains -- but I might have picked different songs.

I guess I will have to put together a list of MY top ever...LOL

What about the Mothers of Invention? Wowie Zowie!

This list kicks rocks. . .

Leaving off Prince, Whitney Houston, Al Green, or Marvin Gaye, or even Ice Cube should be criminal.

I mean where the heck is Wang Chung?!?

HORRIBLE LIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As a musician with varied and reasonable 'tastes', I'd have to say this is a useless listing. It's all over the place and includes some obviously poor choices (musically, lyrically, composition, etc.). I hope you didn't have to type all that junk... :)

And just to frighten everyone, if you are 24 years old or younger, you'd never known a world without Madonna.

Gin Blossoms are listed FOUR times but U2 only twice? No Jimmy Hendrix, the Doors, or the Four Seasons? The earliest songs are only 1984? No 1960s, no 1950s, not even the 1970s? Dollars to donuts whoever made this list was born in 1984.
