Absurd. 1001 songs and Springsteen makes it once at 920? Like him or not, he’s got to have more than one in top 1001. Granted it’s more of an alt/pop list, but then where is Ned’s Atomic Dustbin? Superchunk? Counting Crows?
this isn’t a very good list. this seems to be a list made for a teenager. I saw stairway to heaven at 200 something. stairway to heaven needs to be higher probably top 10
Um why is my name is at number 6? I’m not a huge fan of Eminem but I think everyone will agree that My name is shouldn’t be at number 6
The list is not very good despite one being one of my favorite songs of all time. I do agree that Bruce needs o be one the list more as well as he is very talented and born to run and other classics are not included
