Number 1 was Jay Z - Roc Boys and I have to say that is 100% spot on. Its by far the best song of 2007. Im not normally a fan of Jay Z but this song is awesome and easily the best song of the year

Think Kanye West - Stronger should of been higher but otherwise a good list

 

[ManWithNoName]

Gotta be the worst list I've ever seen. Ever.

Agree, terrible.

Battles - Atlas not even rating a mention? Kidding themselves.

LOL @ Umberrrrrrellla Ey Ey EY EY Ey Ey Ey etc....

Rolling Stone sucks. They gave the number 1 song of ALL TIME to Bob Dylan's 'Like A Rolling Stone'. Name one other list that has this song in the top 50.

 

[superfraser]

When was Favourite Worst Nightmare released? How did something from that album not make the top 100 songs?

That is a joke of a list.

 

[BABYBOMBERS2007]

That is a terrible list. Absoloutely crap. How in the world that Umbrella does not get number one is rediculous. Many of those other top songs I havn't even heard of.

terrible terrible list


not to mention the following inclusions

Computer Camp Love was from 2005

LDN was from 2006

it's ridiculous it's included at all!

 

[Eddie Dingle]

Please tell me that was the US edition of Rolling Stone?

it has to be as the songs I've mentioned above were from years ago elsewhere - perhaps they had delayed releases to the US

 

[Catt2Attack]

god, number 2s a bit of a suprise. would have thought 'umbrella' was a shoe in for no.2 but.......

 

[Wrangeroos]

Geez, that list reminds me why I don't read Rolling Stone anymore.

Garbage

Strange, strange list. I have never been a Rolling Stone fan (Oz or US edition) and this has just confirmed my opinion. I actually buy Q every now and then and enjoy it (mostly). Has a great review section and covers UK OZ and US pretty well.

 

[Spermbird]

I can honestly say I have never heard most of the songs on that list & to be honest I think I'm happier that way

 

[Heisenberg_]

Piece of me by Britney Spears at 15.
What a joke, its ****ing horrible.
Then I see thw worst song I have heard in my life at 48, Kiss Kiss by Chris Brown.
Worst list ever

 

[Catt2Attack]

some of jt's songs are a bit low...and wheres paralyzer by finger 11?

 

[lyall]

Rolling Stone has been going down hill for years. No surprise this list is also just as shit as all the rest of there attempts

 

[yirra_kurl]

shite

[SIZE=+1]15[/SIZE] [SIZE=+1]"Piece of Me"[/SIZE]
Britney Spears
Britney gets a pissed-off synth rocker to match her shaved head as she eviscerates the tabs one by one. Proof that she's got a soul — and the right producers to construct it for her.
[SIZE=+1]
21[/SIZE] [SIZE=+1]"Crank That"[/SIZE]
Soulja Boy
A young Atlanta rhymer-producer cooks up a skeletal stomper and a no-budge MySpace clip, and ends up ruling hip-hop (at least for a few weeks).

[SIZE=+1]35[/SIZE] [SIZE=+1]"Girlfriend"[/SIZE]
Avril Lavigne
With its "I Want Candy" beat and bratty Hills-generation entitlement ("Hell, yeah, I'm the mother****ing princess," she chirps), this was '07's ultimate mall-punk shout-along.

[SIZE=+1]96[/SIZE] [SIZE=+1]"Big Girls Don't Cry"[/SIZE]
Fergie
A modern-day version of "I Will Survive," except with Fergie proving that she too can carry a tune, and making herself sound even more impossibly lovable in the bargain

Would be on my "100 worst songs ive ever heard"
And Stronger by Kayne West ****ing sucks.

 

[VINCANITY]

That Jay-Z song is pretty good, not the best this year but still pretty good and im not a fan of rap so thats saying something

 

[Arcadion]

Poor

Bring on JJJ's Hottest 100.

 

[citizen-erased]

its an RS list, so obviously it misses the mark, but why focus on the singles?
feist's album has some gems on there that blow 1234 away.
oh well.

and Nude is the best song from In Rainbows. one of the bands best.

No complaints for me with Roc Boys at #1, Its probably the best fully mainstream song of the year. But rollingstone need to have a crisis meeting and decide if they are going to be mainstream or actually write what they think. There is no way both Bright Eyes and Britney Spears are in the same persons top 20. Stop trying to cater to all audiences.

Interesting to note they also said Jay-Z's album American Gangster was the third best album of the year.

Going to have to disagree with Stronger though. It is in the bottom half on songs on Graduation. If it were not for the Daft Punk sample it would be a very bland, average song

That's what I hate about that song - it's essentially just Kayne rapping over a Daft Punk song - how can people possibly see that as a production masterpiece?
