I thought We Will Rock You would have registered on the list. Pommie sport isn't sport without that song.

 

[carcharias]

I have seen ones from other magazines where
"In my life" from the Beatles came in first.

I'm, sorry but Robbie Williams isn't fit to polish any of their shoes...even Oasis.

 

[les norton]

Why because he is pop?
what a load of sh!t....tell me why he doesnt?

 

[NZ Warrior]

"Paranoid Android" by Radiohead doesn't compute on the List. List is full of sh*t.

Anything that leaves out radiohead has a ton of credibility imo

 

[half]

i disagree with the list tbh

 

[NZ Warrior]

Anything that has the likes of Robbie Williams in it at the expense of Radiohead loses all credibility imo.

 

[Weasels Ripped My Flesh]

I'll agree with no.1, but the other 9...hmmm

Word. Thom Yorke has more talent in his left nut than that ass-clown Robbie.

Dude, the Beatles are pop. So are the Kinks, and Bowie.

He is crap, that's why.

Here's a tip. You won't be listening to his albums 10 years from now.

This list has an historical focus, he doesn't yet and I'm 99% certain that he won't.

Radiohead are overrated.

The rest of the list I'm perfectly happy with. It's a good mix of eras and styles.

Was this a poll or compiled by music "experts"?

It's an all right list, I guess.

 

[Alex28]

i think enough has been said about the credibility of this list - Q has become very NME-esque these days any way...

 

[les norton]

People have been listening to his music for 15 years...

Yep, Im a fan...i admit it.

Just because its not your style of music doesnt mean he doesnt deserve to be on that list, millions of records, millions of people at his concerts, his music is constantly in any list in the UK. Winning best song of the last 15 years and the brit awards. Biggest recording contract in history for a reason. You may not like him but its clear that the people do.

As he wrote....you cant argue with popularity...well you can, but you would be wrong.


(OMG, I sound like a freak...i swear im not as bad as I sound...)

 

[Slappy]

what a f**ked list!!!!

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

hrundi, isn't "Angels" at least 7 or 8 years old?

Out of all the stones songs would you have picked sympathy for the devil? Personally I think it is quite dull and much prefer the GNR version. Out of all their songs they picked that!

Just on the stones does anyone else really like that song they did in the late 90's 'anybody seen my baby'? For some reason I really used to like that song! Havent heard it in ages.

On Robbie Williams, he has become extremely popular and does a very good job at entertaining the massive crowds he plays to. Just watch live at kneebworth (sp?) to see he is a good performer.

However I have noticed he 'borrows' a heap of Freddy Mercury stage acts when he is on stage. Watching a few Queen concerts and you will see Robbie is copying a lot of his stage presence (sp?)

Amazing how an artist can be so big in the rest of the world and still sell bugger all albums in the US!
