Greatest song in 60 years

[Big Dave]

Several I agree with - several inclusions - and omissions - leave me dumbfounded.

[SMOKEU]

I've never even heard of most of that music.

[Virago]

What a load of shit. Not a single song by Barry Manilow.

[Winston001]

LOL

NME has been a respected magazine and I can say with pleasure that I have two editions (10 years apart) of the NME Book of Rock. Indeed in my obsessive/compulsive nature I read and absorbed every page. :weird:

Still...gotta frown over that list.

It really doesn't matter, you likes whut youse likes. Enjoy.

[The End]

9. Dizzee Rascal - Fix Up, Look Sharp



Are you fucking kidding me?

[Berries]

Are you fucking kidding me?
Tell me about it. If that little ditty isn't worth a top three spot the list is shithouse.

[Brian d marge]

The best song EVER is " Happy birthday dearest Stephen, happy birthday to you .........."

ever year it wins , hands down with the Judges

Stephen

[YellowDog]

What a load of shit. Not a single song by Barry Manilow.

I dunno, all this competition about stuff that is s'posed to be savoured and enjoyed is just plain weird. From competitive cooking to competitive music: WTF? Just chill and enjoy your Tupac with your six pack, who cares where they come in some idjit's list.

[unstuck]

Bollocks. Never mind.:devil2:

[Maha]

'Sympathy For The Devil' has to one of the most inept songs, lyrically ..ever, but what would I know?

[Indiana_Jones]

wtf, they put the Pistol's in the list.....

Should of been the Clash

-Indy

[SVboy]

Some great songs in that list but "greatest" -I think not. Even from the artists listed-their best work-I think not again.

[SVboy]

Where is TOOL, Metallica, led zep etc etc

[unstuck]

Wonderwall makes me want to puke.:weird:

[Woodman]

The beachboys featured twice???? They have the worst songs ever. Fcuken gay sounding shit.

The list is a crock of shit.

[ellipsis]

...like any lists of best ever, to be taken with a grain of salt...best motorcycles...best cars....best arse...best tits....best mum...it's all emotive and personal drivel...

...where's Frank Ifield's version of 'I Remember You'...not to be confused with Slim Whitmans rendition :rolleyes: ...

[neels]

Nice.

I've still got love will tear us apart on a 7" single somewhere at home......

[MSTRS]

Bollocks. Never mind.:devil2:

Links 2 3 4? You Los. Back to your Silver Machine, Urban Guerilla.

[MisterD]

Proof, if t'were needed, that Sounds was a far superior publication to NME...

[Swoop]

UK based judgement of "greatest". What did anyone expect?



where's Frank Ifield's version of 'I Remember You'...not to be confused with Slim Whitmans rendition :rolleyes: ...

Also not to be confused with Sid Vicious' version "I remember you, you bastard!":lol:

[HenryDorsetCase]

I've never even heard of most of that music.

Two reasons: You are 11 years old, and you have shit taste.

[HenryDorsetCase]

Links 2 3 4? You Los. Back to your Silver Machine, Urban Guerilla.

O I C what u did there. Time to Reise Reise before the Rosenrot sets in, what Du Hast to say about that?

[HenryDorsetCase]

Oh, and that isn't even the best JOY DIVISION song. TRANSMISSION FTW!

[Crasherfromwayback]

Nice.

I've still got love will tear us apart on a 7" single somewhere at home......

Yeah I've got a shitload of Joy Division and New Order vinyl I play all the time!

[Crasherfromwayback]

Oh, and that isn't even the best JOY DIVISION song. TRANSMISSION FTW!

Think my personal fav is 'She's lost control'

[SVboy]

Oh, and that isn't even the best JOY DIVISION song. TRANSMISSION FTW!

ATMOSPHERE I intend to have that one played at my funeral-have the 12". [Not that I will be able to hear it!]

[MSTRS]

Relax, you Working Class Hero, we're not In The Army Now. If you won't Listen To What The Man Said, then Lady, i'm not Breaking All The House Rules to fix your Locomotive Breath.
:bleh::lol:

[HenryDorsetCase]

wtf, they put the Pistol's in the list.....

Should of been the Clash

-Indy

Pistols for notoriety, Clash for influence.

OK, the best song ever written is Tear Ya Down by Motorhead. Listen to that bass tone and tell me I'm wrong.

Oh dear.

Its Decoration Day, down here in Buttholeville, I drove here in Carl Perkins Cadillac, Ive been falling so long its like Gravity's Gone, might end up in the Sinkhole: Hell No, I Ain't Happy. Marry Me?

[unstuck]

Poor choices they have made. I cant get no satisfaction.When I read that list.:devil2::headbang::headbang:

[SVboy]

I think the person who wrote the list should be subjected to prison sex, which would result in stinkfist! No more good vibrations after that!

[MisterD]

You're wrong. It's not even the best song on that album...

That's What I Like About You. i'm a Lucky Man, not an Ordinary Average Guy. Still, i Don't Fear The Reaper and for Une Nuit A Paris, i'll take a Magic Carpet Ride. Even if there May Be A Price To Pay.

Good call.

One of my fav songs is Bankrobber.

This recording where Mick jumped on stage was done just a month before Joe died:

If you put '&autoplay=1' in the you tube code before the ID - it will do that on any vid. It's poor netiquette though and should be deleted.

Mwahaahahhahahahahaha!!! thanks for the tip.

Not so much for the Rebecca Black clip.

Doh - it goes after the vid ID.

vid ID eg /t4C1rmOqyzY?modestbranding=1&autohide=1&autoplay=1"

or a combination of parameters will either hide the you tube logo, hide the controls bar and play automatically.
