And there's more where that came from, including...a 40-song Stevie Wonder list(!!!!!!!!!)

Ones I've been able to find for sure are lists of Stevie Wonder songs and the best singles of the '80s (they also had an '80s album list that the readers voted for). They also have a bunch of other special edition magazines (ABBA, Michael Jackson, Prince, Madonna, and George Michael stand out) that might have lists, so I'll check them out too.
EDIT: The ABBA one has a list!
EDIT 2: No dice for Prince, George Michael, or MJ, sadly.

This sounds very promising. However, I have not heard about Classic Pop before and the link doesn’t work for me.

Edit: I edited your first post and added a url bb code. I hope that’s ok with you. But I’m still coming to an error page.

It's a British magazine in the same vein as Classic Rock and Metal Hammer. It might be because it's a pdf - I transcribed straight from the pdf but it might not work for everyone. I can share the link I originally downloaded it from and maybe that might help.

I was going to mention that one because I ran into it before and ask you if those were not reader's polls as well, but apparently you checked already, so that's fine :)

The one for Classic Rock was by the magazine, while this one has a big “as chosen by the readers” on the cover. Singles, on the other hand, look good at the moment.
