I mean it's a list so everyone will disagree with it, but it's an interesting read - especially as it's the first time in 17 years they've done it.

The group of people they polled to get the results together is certainly eclectic. It definitely gives a picture of how music has continued to evolve over the years, 

If anything it'll give me a few songs to check out that I've probably not listened to before, so that's something.

Biology isn't number one and loads of Kanye West. Bollocks.

Music is about taste and feeling. Not journos listing songs they feel you have to like. 36 hours by John Cooper Clarke, the theme from Maid Marion and Her Merry Men and Sonny's Lettah by Linton Kwesi Johnson arent in it I assume?

[Sphinx]

Gasolina was voted the 50th best song of all time. I'm out.

Playlist of all 500 is here on Spotify should you wish to do a deep dive into it, although it does list from 1-500 rather than in descending order, so has a spoiler if you wanted to be surprised by the top 10.
