4. "Bridge Over Troubled Water" - Simon & Garfunkel
5. "Respect" - Aretha Franklin
6. "Rock Around the Clock" - Bill Haley and His Comets
7. "Stayin' Alive" - Bee Gees
8. "What a Wonderful World" - Louis Armstrong
9. "I Got You (I Feel Good)" - James Brown
10. "Hey Jude" - The Beatles
11. "Good Vibrations" - The Beach Boys
12. "Born in the U.S.A." - Bruce Springsteen
13. "Like a Rolling Stone" - Bob Dylan
14. "Like a Virgin" - Madonna

17. "Smells Like Teen Spirit" - Nirvana
18. "American Pie" - Don McLean
19. "Dancing Queen" - ABBA
20. "Sunday Bloody Sunday" - U2

I Think This May Be Eligible...

it's a known series (for the country), and there have been similar lists included. So, I don't see why not. (It looks likeit has some songsin common with that CMT Songs That Changed the World list).

Re: "20 to 1" Greatest Songs of All Time

Despite being a Beatles fan there is no way in hell that Imagine is the best song of all time.

20 to 1 usually dont make critics lists. I watched the 20 to 1 love songs and it had James Blunt on it. They dont put much thought into it

A "Love Songs"...

show wouldn't be eligible, anyhoo, as others like it aren't.

And what's wrong with "You're Beautiful," anyways? (it'sa guilty pleasure for me, I must admit)

Re: "20 to 1" Greatest Songs of All Time

The question with 'You're Beautiful' might be what's right with it?

Haha...

I can see why some people might not like it- but, the words sorta spoke of a situation in my life and I related to it. Dat's all. :)
