Thank you guys. No trouble doing this.  Most of the information in the text is probably known to most on here already. Was a couple of things I didn't know from before. The list itself I in large parts agree with. |

Nice article! Nice to see TWAT in there as well as 'deep cuts'.
Is that a new quote from A.M or sourced from elsewhere?

Not sure. They didn't cite a source, so I assume they got the quotes themselves. |

to be totally fair, there are much more famous and notoriously influential songs, so statistically wise it's right. I can't see why they included RNDTH though, it's totally unknown song. |

I think the ranking is subjective but somewhat close to what I think. I mean these kind of top 20 lists never really nail it. They are always so subjective.
There was a Time is a good song, but I really really think "This I Love" is in the top 5. The song is just brilliant.
I do like how they didn't have like 6 CD era songs in there, but at the same time I feel like just having 1 in there was a mishap.
I think 2 CD songs should of been included.

Yeah I was surprised to see this one in there too, but I like it's inclusion. It's one of their heaviest songs, and its just a in your throat type of tune. Top 20? Maybe not... but it is unique and good. So it is passable. None of the top 20 songs included are crazy for being in there. You could argue all of them being in there. RNDTH and TWAT and maybe OTGM are the only soft choices I think. Maybe we should all just make our own top 20 songs? |

I don't think TWAT is a soft choice, excellent lyrics and great guitar work by Robin and Bucket.

Yeah TWAT is a good song. I'm just saying that out of the 20 they picked, I think that it might be one people might not include or something.
The song is a little dense for me personally though it is very good.

Only one that strikes me out of place is 'Out Ta Get Me'. Not sure that's a top 20 tune.
2 straight lists like this with 'My Michelle' in the top 10 though. Interesting.

The only one I would put in a top 20. I actually think its borderline top 10. |

Yeah I don't think My Michelle is top 10 material either. Out Ta Get me is a good tune though, but kinda high on this list.
I always thought Bad Obsession was really great.

I think ISE is pretty much a statement, it should be there instead of RNDTH. maybe. but I agree My Michelle is also a gem, speaking much about its era. I'm VERY glad they didn't include covers, seeing KOHD or LALD in there would be outrageous. |

Great job, man! Really great. I'm also disappointed to see only one song from CD, Better and Madagascar should be in this top 20.
