VH1's List of Best Songs of Past 25 Years

Any list that would have Eminem 4th and "Walk This Way" 6th deserves no discussion.

The best thing to do would be to ignore this list.

 

in my opinion there should have been a Creed song and at least 1 Hootie & the Blowfish. now before you start bashing them, they had some very good songs, they sold 16 million copies on a record.

 

nuttin wrong with hootie man!

but Creed? now ya got my doubting your intelligence

 

Seems to me that they only took the first of those three things into consideration. Sure, some of the songs belong on there....but a lot of them have no business being on the list at all.

 

why don't you like creed? i don't see what's wrong with their music. I like, Higher, With Arms Wide Open, My Sacrifice, One Last Breath, One, My Own Prison. To me it's just good music.

just so you know, they came out with a new cd back in March, pretty good, it's self titled

 

HANSON - MMMBOP??!??!?!

You gotta be kidding me. I feel like less of a man by just typing that song's name.

With this list they may as well just include Alvin & the Chipmunks, "Oooo, eeee, oooo ah ah, walla walla bing-bang"?!?!?!?!

 

I started out really liking Creed after their 1st album came out..that was a good CD..then the 2nd one came out..and Scott Sapp starting getting more and more and more over dramatic in his videos and songs..then I saw them in concert, in 2001. That was the most over-dramatic fluff I've ever seen, like a male version of Celene Dion. Bascially, I havent liked any of their songs since the 1st CD.

not too mention that radio over plays the hell outta them

I remember hearing bout that, but never got round to d/l any of it, good idea, I will find and d/l tonight

 

ok i just looked over the list again and about passed the F* out when I saw this..


81. OutKast, "Ms. Jackson"


Im speechless, nothing more needs to be said bout this list..that right there says it all, and what it sayz aint good

 

Thats about right for Eminem. Maybe a little bit lower. But not much. It gets me pumped up to take a test or before a pickup basketball game. . . awsome song
Now this is a annoying rap song

81. OutKast, "Ms. Jackson"

 

there 1st single was called "Innocence" probably one of the 5 best songs they've ever done but of course no one really knows because radio didn't really play them, at least the top 40 stations like krbe.

Overall this list sucks.... a lot of these songs are just way out of order and others don't belong like Ms. Jackson

 

i think Lose Yourself is one of Eminem's best.

The Way I Am
Lose Yourself

both of those would be a close #1.

 

that dont matter that radio dont play it, most of the music I love and listen to the most, you almost never hear on the radio.

but dude, you've got to stop listening to KRBE, that s* will rot your brain!

thanks for the info though

 

oh, i don't listen to krbe, i can't stand it... i listen to 94.5, 101, 96.5, and a few others krbe i skim through and every once in a while they play something good

 

anyone who would not have an eminem, britney, or backstreet song on this list to me is someone who is simply ignoring the history of music over the last 25 years (especially if you are going by vh1's criteria).

 

i agree with you francis4prez... what i don't like seeing is Ms. Jackson on there when there are better songs. Creed, Hootie & the Blowfish are a few i have mentioned.

 

It took you until #81 to be appalled? Try #4.

BTW, Maze has about 3 albums worth of songs better than half the crap on that list.

 

Yeah, I for one know I'll be playin Hit Me Baby One More Time for the next decade.

 

i'll just throw out some songs that were very successful during their time that should be on the list somewhere.

With Arms Wide Open or Higher
Hold My Hand or Only Wanna Be With You
Semi Charmed Life
Hanging By a Moment
Californication

 

Excellent songs.
