Rolling Stone's irrefutable list of the best songs of all time (no classical, of course). There are, of course, some decisions I disagree with, like songs being higher than they should be (Crazy In Love), songs that are lower than they should be (Pancho and Lefty), songs that were taken off of this list that was on the first (The End), songs by artists that replace one of their better songs (Europe Endless is better than Trans-Europe Express, I mean it), ONE KENDRICK LAMAR SONG, and some songs are just wrongly placed (how is Station to Station worse than Hotline Bling, please break it down for me). Rolling Stone's Top 500 albums (2020) doesn't really coincide well with this list (Songs in the Key of Life is #4, but doesn't have a single song in this whole list. Blonde is #79, no Nights or Godspeed). Regardless, here it is.
