Rolling Stone Magazine

[Booney]

Rolling Stone has released a brand new list of the top 500 songs in history — and it’s changed dramatically from the first list released by the iconic music magazine almost two decades ago.

More than 250 artists, musicians and producers — from Brit pop singer Sam Smith to American rapper Megan Thee Stallion to Black Sabbath drummer Bill Ward — were asked to rank their personal top 50s, before the results were combined to form the top 500.

Iconic? If that means utter bollocks for about six decades then spot on. The only thing worse than a recent Rolling Stone list is the one that supersedes it. Zeppelin fans do not forget, forgive or purchase.
