Paul McCartney's Silly Love Songs.

For those that don't know, the story behind this song is that John Lennon criticised McCartney of only writing silly love songs. Then McCartney released this song.

PlasticRam

Anarchy in the UK should be safe.

Also I recommend the entire album, Little Criminals. The other songs are different.

Pretty crazy that no Funeral, but at least this list isn't generic

Yeah, I mean Q critics had the good sense of ranking it third best ever in Britain

PlasticRam

I'm sorry I reported an error that somebody had already pointed out previously in the same error thread. I really need to pay more attention. When are the song and album rankings gonna be corrected? Just asking out of curiosity. I know it's a lot of work prolly, when hundreds of songs have to move d...

PlasticRam

I'm not sure about that. To me it seems on the contrary that everyone expected it to BE #1, or did I misunderstand something? It's like sarcastic. Online people like to do those kind of things where it's a "level". This was okay, but I'm already getting tired of like Cracked with its &quo...

3. Titi Winterstein Quintett - Djinnee Tu Kowa Ziro vs. Rodriguez - Cold Fact 4. Billy Bragg - Worker's Playtime vs. Exuma - Exuma I (1970) My favorites have been biting the dust pretty hard this round. #35 and #24 of my all time list these two are (albums poll wink wink.) I do agree though with Hon...

I'm surprised that To Be Kind is so low. My fav album of the year so far and Pitchfork gave it a high score too.

PlasticRam

Btw I'd love to do this kind of thing with the White Album, or some other longer album (Exile on Main St. or London Calling would be good). Although, there is a limit; doing it with 69 Love Songs or Speakerboxxx/The Love Below might exhaust everyone! I was just thinking that for some reason I would...

The Zombies - Odessey and Oracle (my #3 all-time) A very uplifting and positive album. Exuma - Exuma (#24) Very unique. Genre is described as freak folk. He's from the Bahamas. Exuma - Exuma II (#63) Both albums were released in 1970, yet they're surprisingly different. Both masterpieces in my opini...

Bruce is not a complete troll. Good points sometimes. It's like ending the life of the cat that pees on the rug sometimes. It's a good cat. This is a true story, my cat does pee in the wrong place every now and then. But I won't have it killed. Pretty terrible comparison, I mean Bruce is a smart guy...

PlasticRam

This list makes absolutely no sense to anyone. Odessey and Oracle by The Zombies is outstanding though, I'm starting the campaigning for the greatest albums poll

PlasticRam

I like Mrs. Doubtfire the best cos as crazy of a comedy as it is, it's also deep emotionally. One Hour Photo is another fav of mine, really shows what a great actor he was. Very sad news

Edit reason: Spelling error.

Well it appears I made a mistake in the tabulations - there was one album that I accidentally did not list due to a formatting error on my part. That album was: 80.

PlasticRam

Thanks for the work acroamor! Pretty funny that those three Beatles albums are often in the top 10 very much like that, though usually it's just standard greatest albums lists.

I started my list on RYM in mid-2013 and then just expanded it bit by bit as I listened to stuff I really like.

It's Jay-Z and Kanye West - Niggas in Paris

If it was just Jay-Z, it would be Nigga in Paris. I'm sorry if racist.

Bad year IMO. Only one album that is on my 246 albums list, and even that is in the low end. So I'll post just top 5 songs. 1. Paul McCartney - Silly Love Songs 2. Boston - More Than a Feeling 3.

I thought Kanye West was in the same class as like Katy Perry, Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga, but he ended up my 2nd fav artist of all time after discovering the site.

In The Netherlands here we have a huge musical event at the end of every year on a radio station where the listeners can vote for the top 2000 songs of all time, which will be broadcast completely the week before the new year. This is a popularity contest if there ever was one, because it attracts ...

I also agree about Queen Jane.

Thanks again Henrik!

And like even if 2010-2013 releases are kind of high, they're still nothing compared to the 60s or 70s releases. I think this site has a really good balance.

PlasticRam

Sure Captain Beefheart is a little low now, but I think the artist list is a very good thing to have still. If it was just the artist pages separately, that would take the "fun" out of this site a little bit. Not complaining about Kanye being nr. 23 though :whistle: But still, even if Kany...

Pharrell Williams has Blurred Lines listed twice on his artist page. T.I. hasn't got it listed at all, but I'm not sure if he's supposed to or not. Edit: My Little Town is bubbling under twice!!! This is a pretty big mistake. The two places (S&G's and Simon's artist pages) have completely differ...

This is prolly not the right thread to ask about this, but why isn't the Rolling Stone debut albums list not included? It actually could have been included in the 2013 update, but either it was forgotten or there was a reason. Prolly latter, I'm just checking. http://www.acclaimedmusic.net/forums/vi...

Hello guys,big fan of this site for a long time here and this update finally provoked me enough to become a member of the forums. :D One thing that really bothered me the previous years and has bothered me even more is the huge bias towards new releases.For example,it's ridiculous to see My Beautif...

Elvis Costello agrees with me that Rudie Can't Fail is the best song on London Calling. I'm learning new things thanks to this update!

I'm devastated to see Wilco fall so hard...truly one of the best bands of their generation. :| This is just about the only thing that I'm sad about when it comes to the new update. Everything else looks great though. I also mourn the crashing of Husker Du, Captain Beefheart, Frank Zappa. I know I'm...

The End has been added to the Beatles medley! Now it's perfect, with the three songs. I'm running out of happy smilies

A Day in the Life is in the top 5

Wow, good album artists take a huge leap back and song artists huge leap forward. I like it, and I know at least one other person likes it too!

808s has leaped over 400 spots all because of one list prolly.

Rolling Stone (Germany) - The 500 Best Songsof All Time (2004) So the Songsof should be two words instead of one in the links. Of course that is a very slight error.

I think really accurately MBDTF will be 96th or worse.
