Comment:

These are supposedly top singles of all time (or perhaps radio requests or songs in general.. have to find our source again), in reverse order (Rolling Stones' "Satisfaction" being #1 all-time, duh. Also, ironically that very song was recently voted #1 rock song ever, as well.) This mix was made with the intention of being able to listen to it in order and therefore all the way down to #1 - like a CD countdown.

The top 16 singles of all-time? Or "white jock rock" singles of all time? :) Don't get me wrong, I like many (if not all) of them for what they are, but "all time best?" that's kindof absurd.

Stairway to Heaven was never released as a single.

Hm. These were compiled after a lot of research, but there could be imperfections.. they may just be radio request-wise, or songs in general.. either way, they make a great compilation. White jock-rock heh I like that. Except for the fact that Jimi and Michael (well, kinda) are black, and isn't Martha Reeves? Ah who knows. Good music regardless.

Definitely cool, I think all of these songs are great...although the radio def. ran some of these into the ground (Layla, Stairway especially)
