Rolling Stone's 20 Greatest Songs of All Time
-
I agree with you Kosar, Cash should of been in the top. The man has recorded more songs than any other artist.
-
the rolling stones are THE MOST overrated band of all time. they are incredibly average in every way and their lyrics are lame and repetitive. satisfaction is the same guitar lick over and over with mediocre lyrics at best. in short: they blow.
-
I think this is a top 20 song.
-
Growing up in England. This is my favorite song of all time (mind you 1992). If you think this song suck listen to the second link. Just give it a chance I love the shit you guys love. Don't take the piss. Just listen.
Mind John Squire is the best guitarist since Hendrix.
Or one of my favs. Just listen to the guitar. If anyone for me, listen to this song all the way though.

I'm sorry, I thought this thread was about the 40 Greatest Rolling Stones songs of all time, not Rolling Stones 40 greatest hits of all time.
Now lets seem them come up with the 40 best by Mick and the boys.

I saw The Clash at the Hartford Agora, K.
I liked what they did. I just think that London Calling is ranked too high - TOP 10 ALL TIME? I just happen to believe not.
PS I like a lot of Beachboy's stuff just don't get the #6 ranking.
IMHO, there should have been / could have been many 1950's songs - other than by Berry or Elvis - that had huge impacts on R&R. There are easily 20 such songs that could make the all time Top 10.
I disagree, but that is why we are here. The #6 ranking for the Beach Boys is a perfect spot. I think with this being subjective, Rolling Stone had to appease the Rock and Roll community.
I agree with the Elvis and Berry opinion. To be honest I think Elvis was over rated. Mr Cash should of been on the list for sure, switching out one of Berry's songs. I could think of 50 songs that I like better, but for what it's worth they did a great job. And this is coming from someone who lost any respect I had for Rolling Stone when they started putting Britney Spears on the cover.

Well, Rolling Stone Magazine always has been about Pop Music. So why shouldn't the Pop Tart be on its cover sometime?

Maybe, or maybe it is just your personal perception of what pop/rock is that has changed. The best Rock n' Roll Band at all times was the quintessential Pop act. (yes, I mean The Beatles).

Its a good rock song. Don't know that you have to categorize it, "sounds like Hendrix, sounds like X, sounds like Y, sounds like Z". It is what it is.

Im talking about the voice and the way they sing, not instrumentals. Listen to the beginning of both songs, sounds very similar.
