Oh - I see, what they mean is "top 500 pop/rock charted singles"

Bullshit, as usual.

Yes, Bob Dylan being the top song is bullshit.

I've got nothing against dylan - but "song" doesnt mean"hit single" The top 500 songs in the world a) arent all chart singles and b) arent all in english.

That said - The top 50 does have my all time fave single ever in it so I cant complain too loudly.

Outkast "Hey Ya" at 180 beating a Beatles song.

It makes me laugh because Eminem and Dr Dre made it to the list!

Who makes those lists, thats just a load of poo, simply because you cant group all songs ever created into a top 500. Every genre should have its own list.

Its shit, because im pretty sure many people would disgree that Like a Rolling Stone by Bob Dylan is greatest song of all time.

Having said that, thre is a really really good Greek song that should probably be on one of those ''top 500 songs'' lists.

Oh and my fave is not on there either...blast!

It's the first track off Highway 61 Revisited (one of the best albums of all time) and has Dylan's typical great poetic style of writing.

The eminem track is important because it is the first rap (stfu about 'rap not being a genre'--no one cares) song to win an oscar. The only two in the top ten i really disagree with are Satisfaction and Smells Like Teen Spirit. Other than that, I don't think you can find a more perfectly written or sung song than What's Going On. Hey Jude is my choice for best pop song ever. Imagine--what bad thing can you say about it?

And you know what type of songs you are going to get from Rolling STone. If you want a different take, look for Devil In The Woods magazine or Punk Planet or other indie mags. This is going to be mainstream singles, because it is Rolling Stone. Though PAvement did make it on the list...

Hasn't anyone found it suspicious that the winning song and runner up band are the "Like a ROLLING STONE" and "The ROLLING STONEs" respectively?

I'm waiting for SPIN's top 500.

1) "You SPIN me right round"-Dead Or Alive.
2) "SPINning around"-Kylie Minogue.
