I think everybody has a different opinion, like different bands and songs. In his opinion Queen Song is his number 1. I like that song too. but I dont think there is a number 1 song. Its just his preference. So don't get angry, make your own opinion and respect others. I liked the songs but not in the specific order. and yes a lots of bands and other songs are missing. bye
Another Brick in The Wall should be on the top 10 and not out of the list Also Light my Fire is too low and Breaking on Through way high Where are L.A. Woman Higway to hell Hey you All along the watchtower Maybe a few U2 songs? And... I can't remember now But overall good list and I am sorry for me being a little bit obnoxious
this is a nice collection that reminds me of some songs. Thank you. But what's about Foreigner's "Juke Box Hero", "Music" by John Miles, "Number of the Beast" by Iron Maiden... ????
Jimi Hendrix, led zeppelin, Queen, AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Guns n Roses, Metallica, Aerosmith = Greatest group bands to ever exist.
what a great list , so hard to do so many artists that you could have chosen , but then you would have had to miss out all these wonderful bands and songs i agree with most thank you kind sir enjoyed
Wonderful list! Thanks for sharing. New generations will appreciate this video you made. They will have a better perspective of what is rock about. Great job! Will you do another list?
Stairway to Heaven>Baba O'Riley>Hotel California>Hey Jude>Comfortably Numb>Bohemian Rhapsody. Its not an awful song but by God man Stairway is a work of God himself.
My list would be so very different. By hey, i would add the bands 'Timeless miracle' and 'three days grace'. But paradice city is a song that wohld definately be in my top ten.
To be in the top 10, you must demonstrate great guitar work. With that said this is my list #1 Stairway to Heaven, - Should be retired from airplay #2 Comfortably Numb, - #3 Hotel California, - #4 Freebird, #5 Layla #6 Kashmir #7 Purple Haze #8 Back in Black #9 Whole Lotta Love #10 Satisfaction
bohemian rhapsody number 1?? i like this song, but isn't the best of all time, stairway to heaven is better, baba o'riley is better, won't get fooled again is better, comfortably numb is better!!
David Bernal To be fair, the songs you're listing are close matches. But, they are all great songs in the history of rock. Surely, you can't pick one over the others. Some people will shift some of the tracks up, some down. Personally I think Stairway and Boh-Rap are equal but very different songs. Where I would place them on the list ? Not sure, probably in the top 10, certainly in the top 20.
People who don't understand why Bohemian Phapsody is number one are idiots. I like a lot of rock songs better, but for its time it was (and still is) a masterpiece like never seen before.
I guess I'm one of those idiots - never did think it was that good - alot of pompous grandiose and very little reward - among MANY other songs that are TRULY masterpieces I'll take the Abbey Road Medley! A Real Masterpiece compared to a REALLY overproduced schmaltzy song like your 'suppose' number 1. Better singing too! Better lyrics - better message - just way better! And yes Kashmir is WAY better as well!
i've never agreed with a "top list" before,but this one is just perfect!bohemian rhapsody is a masterpiece,and i'm glad that helter skelter in on the top 5
My Top 10: (this list isn’t my top 10 “favorites”, it’s about on which song is one of the best) 10. Deep Purple - Smoke On The Water 9. AC/DC - Highway To Hell 8. Guns N’ Roses - November Rain 7. The Eagles - Hotel California 6. The Beatles - A Day In The Life 5. Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit 4. Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb 3. Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody 2. The Beatles - A Day In The Life 1. Led Zeppelin - Stairway To Heaven
why did you put the pop-boy-brit band in a rock song list? Beatles does not belong here, Anyway very nice list, I personally dont like Queen much, but very good job :-)
Most people who like rock beg to differ from that opinion. The Beatles were a rockband, especially in their later carreer (they were no doubt a pop boy band in their early years). They just weren't very hard rock, but they still had a considerable amount of rock spirit in them.
A Flying Mammoth my father always told me there were beatles (pop) and stones (rock) (he was born 1943) but i would definately call the beatles a rock-band, maybe the first ever
Out of all Radiohead songs you had to choose Creep,where is Paranoid Android or Street Spirit,this literally is top 100 most popular song list not the greatest.
Ok, just i didn't said it but i hate metallica so master of puppet, ride the lithening one nothig else mater enter sandman i hate this songs too, and pls i never seen one top of rock music without metal music in, that 's different style
Kill em all - Thrash Metal Ride The Lightning - Thrash Metal, Prog Metal Master Of Puppets - Thrash Metal, Prog Metal And Justice For All - Thrash Metal, Heavy Metal, Prog Metal Metallica - Heavy Metal, Hard Rock Load - Hard Rock ReLoad - Hard Rock St. Anger - Heavy Metal, Thrash Metal Death Magnetic - Heavy Metal Lulu - Avant-garde Metal Hardwired - Heavy Metal
you're seriously stupid and ignorant if you actually believe that... that song is a masterpiece that incorporates a variety of music genres as well as a beautiful message which is both Mercury's acceptance of his life and circumstance as well as a goodbye and thank you to everyone who is a fan and allowed him to live his dream... lastly fuck you asshole! if this list did not have Stairway to Heaven at #2 and Bohemian Rhapsody at #1 it would be bullshit
