It's a good list, but I don't necessarily agree with the actual order. Yay @ Kelly beating out Christina, Kylie, Britney, Gaga, Alicia, Rihanna, Katy Perry, Madonna, Shakira and lots of other big name females though. Stupid Beyoncé had the slip in there though.

[Tarry]

These are the only songs I have:

99. Gorillaz - "Feel Good Inc."
96. Lady Gaga - "Poker Face"
93. Snoop Dogg - "Drop It Like It's Hot"
87. The Knife - "Heartbeats"
72. Kings Of Leon - "Use Somebody"
54. Coldplay - "The Scientist"
46. MGMT - "Kids"
44. Britney Spears - "Toxic"
38. Gorillaz - "Clint Eastwood"
29. Kanye West - "Gold Digger"
19. Kanye West - "Jesus Walks"
15. Johnny Cash - "Hurt"
12. Eminem "Lose Yourself"
11. MGMT - "Time To Pretend"
10. Eminem - "Stan"
5. M.I.A. - "Paper Planes"
4. OutKast - "Hey Ya!"

Serious question, where the fuck are 'Hips Don't Lie' and 'Beautiful Liar'?

[Mutant Couch]

That Gnarls Barkley song is really annoying.

I thought people quit pretending to like Green Day a long time ago?

Am I the only person in the world that hates U2? They genuinely want me to pretend I have Scottish ancestry rather than Irish. I hate Bono. I hate The Edge too. His hats are stupid and we all know who rocked the name Edge better, really.

I am shocked they included Rat. That song is so good. I like about 1/3rd of the list.

I feel like I should be offended for Zac, but this is completely justified.

[Mutant Couch]

I'm not going to lie, I totally have that song. If I've heard any of their other songs they weren't worth remembering though.

[jayzero42690]

Fitting that somebody posting a Jonas Brothers video was the 29,666th post on the site.

[Brandon]

That one Jonas brother grew up to be really hot.

[Burke]

It lost all credibility to me by not including Soul Meets Body by Death Cab For Cutie or Panic Switch by Silversun Pickups. Or anything by Audioslave…or Breaking Benjamin…or Nas, etc.

[Tiarnán]

Was Soul Meets Body that big? When I ask people about Death Cab (which admittedly isn't something that happens frequently) they only tend to know IFYITD, if that.

I think you an I have the exact same taste in music. I just have a bunch of shitty songs on my iPod so my shuffle was working against me in that thread. Those are two of my favorite songs, and I usually agree with you about most of the things you post when it comes to music. The only time I remember us disagreeing was Soundgarden/Audioslave, and even that was only half serious.
