Since we definitely didn't agree with Rolling Stone Magazine's Top 10 albums of all time, I figured for fun we could move to another questionable Rolling Stone List. This time we will look at their list of the GREATEST SONGS OF ALL-TIME.
Alright, so we are now moving on to ROUND 2 to determine the BEST song in the Rolling Stone Top 10.
You are going to pick the song that you think is the "Weakest Link" after 2 days I remove the two (2) songs with the most votes. We will then move on to Round 3.

I mean, they don't sing Satisfaction in mid-world, maybe Nervous Shakedown 19, but Hey Jude is sung from Gilead through Mid-World and all the way to the edge of End-World, and presumably at nearly infinite levels of the Tower!

Yes, actually I think that Stones tune beats that The Beatles tune ten out of ten times. I love the end of Hey Jude but otherwise it is just a good song.
(But that is why we do these votes....someone who thinks Hey Jude is better can vote for it.)
Neither do it for me.
Aretha for the win!
Imagine, to me, is quite simply the greatest song ever recorded. Most every cover version I have heard is wonderful, and nothing beats the original. If there was one song on this list that I would have on my stranded on an island tape, it is Imagine.
Also, if you were stranded on an island, you would have achieved much of the idealism that is thematic to the song, so it seems unnecessary as well. No need to imagine the dream when you're living it.
Not to be meant as a put down, L, I just think there are lots of better Beatles songs than "Hey Jude". Sorry if I came across as being nasty.
