Rolling Stone Magazine ranks the top songs of the last 18 years.
It’s a big task, but they went straight for the source and polled music industry insiders.
“To compile our list the “100 Greatest Songs of the Century – So Far,” we reached out to a large group of artists, producers, critics and industry experts who sent us ranked lists of their favorite songs. We tabulated the votes. Our own editorial list might look a little different, but the result is an excellent reflection of an incredible period in music history.”
