Hey, i dunno how long ago this thing was posted but i just came across while looking up things on the who and such. After reading a bunch of your posts, u people need to get something straight. This post isn`t about your favorite songs in the whole world. This post is about the "greatest rock songs of all time". So, i`ve seen people put "i needed to choose one song from this artist, so i picked this one - or i would have just put all of their songs becuase i love them". No people, it`s greatest rock songs of all time. I`m in a hurry, so i`ll put what i think are a few of the best.

1. Stairway to heaven - led
2. Teenage Wasteland - The who
3. House of the rising sun - rolling stones
4. Rock and roll all night - Kiss
5. Hotel California - Eagles
6. Paradise City - Guns n` Roses

I just thought of those off the top of my head. Peace out.

If you don`t have at least 1 beatles song, probably 2 in your top ten list, then you`re an idiot. I`m American, and I realize that they were the most influential band ever. And they are going to remain that forever. Their Music is amazing, so all of you morons out there that say "Only brits can like the beatles LOL!!11" shut up. Another thing, Green Day, Guns N` Roses, and Limp Bizcut don`t belong anywhere near the top ten. Don`t put any of these bands near the top then, you dolts.
