Really stupid chronological order
|
| |
that's a retarded list
|
| |
list is fine
surprised by the "tightrope" inclusion though
|
| |
List is really bad for the newer tracks at least.
|
| |
Pretentious as fuck
|
| |
According to the TIME website, English-language songs were selected based on “enduring beauty, power, and inventiveness.”
Lil Wayne – “Georgia… Bush”
|
| |
um this is not chronological
|
| |
cooooool
|
| |
Some good ones, but other then that its songs thats been on every other magizines top list songs
|
| |
Weird.
|
| |
Weird list. Some good ones in here, but you can't really make a top 100 songs list. Too many to choose from.
|
| |
They must let women at the office have their say because half of this list is pure shit.
|
| |
no Bjork song = FAIL
|
| |
not bad at all. I mean they definitely should have included _______ and there's no way ______ deserves to be here, but decent list overall.
|
| |
they picked the right gaga song, but a cursory CTRL+F "umbrella" yields troubling results!
|
| |

123
|
| |
At least they included Arcade Fire and Radiohead, I guess......
|
| |
And the Radiohead song wasn't Creep!
|
| |
under my um-bah-rella
ooh oooh eh eh eh
under my um-bah-rella
|
| |
Seeing Janelle Monae is nice but otherwise its a pretty average list.
|
| |
Am I the only one who can't see any “enduring beauty, power, and inventiveness” in 98% of this songs on this list?
|
| |
hey ya is outkast's worst song by lightyears
why why why why why why
lots of great songs on this list tho
|
| |
shake it, shake, shake it
shake it, shake, shake it
shake it, shake, shake it
shake it like a polaroid picture
|
| |
Roses instead of Hey Ya
|
| |
postin lyrics awwwwwwwwwwwww yeah
|
| |
enduring beauty, power, and inventiveness
Yea sure....
|
| |
pretty good list I guess. Could've used sigur ros.
|
| |
Evidently they pulled songs out of a hat and said hey let's call it chronological
|
| |
Lil Wayne
Beyonce
Lady Gaga
makes perfect sense to me
|
| |
essentially 100 POP songs ..
|
| |
List needs moar Opeth
|
| |
I can't find any Monogrim tracks on this list
|
| |
how can you have an all time best songs list without having Nickelback on it ? their music has Chad Kroeger's seal of approval, 100% enduring beauty, 1000% power and creativity
|
| |
needs more thrash
|
| |
This list makes sense for the most part. Sure, some of the more recent entries are head scratchers but they were all memorable (be it for good of bad reasons)
|
| |
Some of these songs are questionable to say the least, but some pretty good stuff as well. Ranking something like this would be extremely hard.
|
| |
TIME never know what they're talking about with their music lists. And these are all pop songs, which pretty much discredits them automatically.
|
| |
Wait, you mean they're popular hence their inclusion? Well fuck me....
|
| |
So basically they went all pretentious and picked old classics, then at the end realised "oh shit, we don't have anything from the 90s onwards" and decided to toss a few chart singles in because they were too lazy and idiotic to think there could be some pretty amazing songs from the past ten years and pick them.
|
| |
Some good choices, some questionable. At least it has some interesting choices too.
|
| |
@Deviant
It's not that I have a problem with the songs being popular, it's that I have a problem with them only picking popular songs. In addition, a number of them aren't any good, and most of them are far from the best from the individual artists, never mind the ones they ignored.
|
| |
Well you consider them to not be good
|
| |
That's true. Still think this list sucks though.
|
| |
What a suckup list.
|
| |
List needs more Limp Bizkit btw.
|
| |
omfg where is the biebz fml =((
|
| |
100 songs over an 80 year period which is supposed to include all songs with english lyrics is a big no-no.
|
| |
I can't even pick my top 100 songs from this year, and these guys are actually expecting me to believe the validity of their list of the top 100 songs of all time?
|
| |
They're getting paid to do it so why not give it a stab.
|
| |
And these are all pop songs, which pretty much discredits them automatically.
and thus begins the argument for an ignore button on the review site
|
| |
Wow, this list is a joke.
|
| |
Honestly, if I got paid to make a list like this, I wouldn't really care what you people said.
|
| |
list sucks
|
| |
Radiohead was obviously going to be there, happy about Arcade Fire too. But I just feel like it needed stuff like Once In a Lifetime by Talking Heads and Computer Love by Kraftwerk.
|
| |
Too much shit rap to be taken seriously.
|
| |
shortest news article ever
|
| |
Missy Elliot – “Get Ur Freak On”
Stopped reading there.
|
| |
Miss a lot of classic stuff.
3/5 list
|
| |
"Outkast – “Hey Ya” – 2003
Jay-Z – “’99 Problems” – 2004
Arcade Fire – “Wake Up” – 2004
Kanye West – “Gold Digger (featuring Jamie Foxx)
Lil Wayne – “Georgia… Bush” – 2006
LCD Soundsystem – “All My Friends” – 2007
Beyonce – “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)” – 2008
Lady Gaga – “Bad Romance” – 2009
Sinead O’Connor – “Nothing Compares 2 U” – 1990
Pet Shop Boys – “Being Boring” – 1990
Nirvana – “Smells Like Teen Spirit” – 1991
Richard Thompson – “’1952 Vincent Black Lightning” – 1991
Wu-Tang Clan – “C.R.E.A.M.” – 1992"
“All-TIME 100 Greatest Songs”
TIME struggles to stay relevant.
No problems with any of theses songs but not one of them should be on a 100 greatest songs of all time list...
|
| |
Of ALL the Kanye songs, they picked Gold Digger...
|
| |
"According to the TIME website, English-language songs were selected based on “enduring beauty, power, and inventiveness.”
Lil Wayne – “Georgia… Bush”
wut.
|
| |
what a fucking horrendous list
|
| |
Almost nothing from the 21st century on this list falls under the categories beautiful, powerful, or inventive.
|
| |
impossible to makes lists like this I don't see why people do it.
|
| |
weird list
|
| |
list is pretty good.
but of ALL the rem songs...
|
| |
Pretty bad list tbh, especially the hip hop choices... Seriously, they chose Gold Digger over Through the Wire, Jesus Walks or Runaway? The choice to do the list in chronological order and only have one song per artist ruined this list for me.
|
| |
putting Little Wayne on a top 100 songs of all time list makes the list null and void.
At least they picked the right Springsteen song.
|
| |
Bad list Time Magazine. Bad list.
|
| |
little wayne
|
| |
Whenever I think of Sinead O' Connor's "Nothing Compares to You" I immediately hear - "I was gettin some head, gettin gettin some head"
Also, it seems like they just chose their favorite song from the artists listed from the past 20 years and included said artists in order to be relevant.
The list sucks, really.
|
| |
Hey Ya rules though.
|
| |
Beyonce – “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)” – 2008
OH MY GOD GET IT OUT OF MY HEAD AAAAARGH
|
| |
Someguest I put Little on purpose, I call him that as an act of defiance! Im so fucking rebellious! honestly I dont hate Weezy but really putting him on a top 100 songs of all time list is amongst the stupidist things Ive ever seen in music commentary.
|
| |
TIME's 100 *POP* songs ...
they forgot that
|
| |
Prince – “Kiss” – 1986
Nice.
|
| |
Yeah the only thing i noticed looking at this list was that some of the older ones are definitely classics and that its super sad the classics we will have 40 yrs from now are gaga and outkast and beyonce. fuckin lame
|
| |
Missy Elliot
|
| |
You get to pick one Beatles song for your whole list and you choose "I Want to Hold Your Hand"???
Pretty much sums up this list...
|
| |
Some choices are questionable, but I think we can all agree that Get Ur Freak On is one of the best songs ever
|
| |
awful list
|
| |
i don't know, i think basically it's a flawless list.
|
| |
They must have gotten high and abused there "Journalistic integrity" right after, because this list is bizarre.
It's cool that they would put bands like Big Star, Pulp, and New Order. But where is The Cure, Oasis and maybe even Blur?
This list is more all over the place than a crack addicts kitchen. Errr....or cardboard box.
|
| |
This is almost as bad as Rolling Stone's 100 Greatest Guitarists ever. Damn I love it when major publications put out lists....always full of laughs.
|
| |
These are their greatest songs EVER?
Fuck, and I thought Rolling Stone was bad.
|
| |

|
| |
They don't have songs I like wahhhhh
|
| |
http://www.didyouknowthat.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/hitler-Time-man-of-the-year.jpg
he deserved it
|
| |
The list is really good, in my opinion.
Songs like "The Night They Drove Dixie Down" got picked, because they are part of a bigger narrative than just music.
|
| |
yay
|
| |
^Make a better one?
|
| |
I always though of lists as just an organized expression. However, I don't believe that anybody can honestly say that a lot of these meet the criteria laid out in the preface.
|
| |
List is neither good nor chronological.
|
| |
They should've consulted Sputnik first.
List needs some GY!BE and Slint.
|
| |
Radiohead.
|
| |
According to the TIME website, English-language songs were selected based on “enduring beauty, power, and inventiveness.”
The list is unranked. Songs on the list are featured chronologically. Here is the list:
Janelle Monae – “Tightrope” – 2010
Missy Elliot – “Get Ur Freak On” – 2001
Outkast – “Hey Ya” – 2003
Jay-Z – “’99 Problems” – 2004
Oh seriously, what the fuck.
|
| |
lmao this sucks
|
| |
as usual the people who get all up in arms about these lists invariably have terrible taste themselves
|
| |
single ladies is the worst song EVER. I fucking hate that song. I fucking hate it. I can tolerate 99 percent of dance music. But I fucking hate that song.
|
| |
what the fuck
|
| |
I think the newer songs are breakup songs, because the present's narrative is lost on most of us. TIME magazine is acknowledging the breakup song, through their more recent picks.
Has anyone read the original article?
|
| |
i lol at this list of songs...and that they only chose english songs. “enduring beauty, power, and inventiveness.” MY ASS.
|
| |
honestly not bad
fuck everyone
|
| |
...This is how the next generation is going to remember us.
|
| |
yeah, TIME lists tend to be the defining legacy of each generation
|
| |
BUT LISTEN TO LIL WAYNE! HOW CAN HIS MUSIC NOT BE BEAUTIFUL, POWERFUL, AND INVENTIVE??
|
| |
not bad, atleast 2 songs from the last 10 years on here are good
|
| |
How can Time mag generate the defining legacy of several generations when the list just comes out of the head of 4 or 5 journalists? What are they, superhuman? Or is it just believing that "the elite" knows best.
What about asking the people? Say, let people send in their top 100 and then take the top 100 songs of all the top 100 list. Would not internet technology allow for such an extraordinary feat (just joking)?
Or is it just that Time does not give a heck (I mean a f**k, sorry a FUCK) about what the people think? They just put a list out and we, the people, just start barking around.
Imagine someone really would try and harness the people's opinion on 5 million songs.
Well that's just what I intend to do, just check on Booksygen.com within 15 Jan. 2012
