I thought it was alright, I didn't agree with Eminem's Lose Yourself because that song isnt one of his best, but thats one of the few I actually disagreed with. Takes awhile to read through. _________________ NCSK BIKEROUTE INDUSTRYCLOTHINGCO bazfaz: NO YOU CANT YOU FUCKEN ASSHOLE bazfaz: yeah thats right you suck bazfaz: dont f**king get that shit wrong bboyag: ok i;ll remember bazfaz: f**k i thin i drank a lot of that handle Posted: Sun Dec 05, 2004 10:24 pm proglife Kingpin   Joined: Sep 11, 2002 Posts: 2113 Location: Annapolis, MD 500 songs, right? So, are you saying that an Eminem song made it into Rolling Stone's Top 500 songs of all time? REALLY?

And NWA's f**k tha police, 2pac and Dre's California Love and Dre's Nothin but a G thang. Stan was the other Eminem song. I think he deserves a spot, but a lot of people will disagree. I think The Doors House of the Rising Sun should have been in there tho. _________________ NCSK BIKEROUTE INDUSTRYCLOTHINGCO bazfaz: NO YOU CANT YOU FUCKEN ASSHOLE bazfaz: yeah thats right you suck bazfaz: dont f**king get that shit wrong bboyag: ok i;ll remember bazfaz: f**k i thin i drank a lot of that handle Re: Rolling Stone 500 Posted: Sun Dec 05, 2004 10:38 pm dirty dave All-City   Joined: Jan 2, 2003 Posts: 1545 Location: North Jersey, Beotch! Whose top 500? Certainly wasn't mine. That magazine sucks...so many songs that should've made it, didn't...and vice versa. _________________ Metallica sucks.

It was all people involved in music, I think Ozzy was in there, Elvis Costello, Kurt Loder (lol). _________________ NCSK BIKEROUTE INDUSTRYCLOTHINGCO bazfaz: NO YOU CANT YOU FUCKEN ASSHOLE bazfaz: yeah thats right you suck bazfaz: dont f**king get that shit wrong bboyag: ok i;ll remember bazfaz: f**k i thin i drank a lot of that handle Posted: Sun Dec 05, 2004 11:10 pm proglife Kingpin   Joined: Sep 11, 2002 Posts: 2113 Location: Annapolis, MD Interesting. Smells Like Teen Spirit is #9? Hmm.... I think Express Yourself is a better song than f**k the Police, but I don't think NWA could take credit for what's great about that track.

Covers just plain don't count. I didn't read the article, because I know it is entirely meaningless and will probably just piss me off, but I thought I'd point that out. _________________ www.theparksmedia.com Posted: Mon Dec 06, 2004 3:42 pm Quiksilver Team Hcor.net   Joined: Sep 9, 2002 Posts: 2270 Location: losing races at a mountain near you wait... I dont even remember the doors covering house of the rising sun! In fact no way... they never did. house of the rising sun was done by the animals, not the doors _________________ I see the snorkel in your face Posted: Fri Dec 17, 2004 12:25 am Toshi Kingpin   Joined: Sep 6, 2002 Posts: 2074 Location: seattle hey narlus, could you come up with, say, a top 50 list and post it here? i'm currently trying to d/l as much of the rolling stone 500 as i can, since i pretty much missed out on the whole "listening to popular music" deal while growing up.

Those are some great resources, man. Even if you don't agree with the songs they chose, the artisits are varied enough to really give you a taste of the generation, if you bother to go find other songs by them....

I don't think anyone's that really knows their music would take this list for anything more than that. - dump _________________ i'm out
