Polls that reflect the opinion of the general public tend to yield similar results. Not sure why people are so surprised.

I don't know most of those songs, and I've been to New Zealand twice. Other posters are right - seems like Will to Power's "Freebird/Baby I Love Your Way" should really be there. That song's like 20 years old now, maybe NZ listeners just don't remember:




FWIW list doesn't include Moony's "Dove/I'll Be Loving You Forever" and Spiller's "Groovejet/If This Ain't Love"...

1 AC/DC - Back in Black

[/ QUOTE ]

This one seems a little overrated to me. I know it's one of their signature songs, mostly because it's the title track from one of the greatest rock albums ever. However, I think AC/DC had several songs better than this. You Shook Me, Thunderstruck, Hells Bells, Highway to Hell, and Moneytalks all seem like better choices to me. Even though I'm a huge AC/DC fan, I doubt any of those songs are the best rock song ever.

This list is absolutely blasphemous. Why did they even try it?

That would be like Americans trying to compile a list of "Top 1000 villages in China." or some crap.

Greatest Rock Songs

[/ QUOTE ]

That is a much, MUCH better list. I'm not saying that list is perfect or that it reflects my personal tastes, but at least it's covered with great rock and roll songs.

Edit: I have a terrible confession to make and this seems like a good thread for it.

I have never liked that song.

Maybe it's just me.
