We have the same #1 song, but nothing else in common.

What year would you say that rock started?

The thread I started tonight "An Interesting Project" has it starting in 1947.

I won't be able to do the rollout until tomorrow at the earliest. I know you got your list in, but I'm hoping for more. We're currently 3 song lists short of the lowest so far for the 80s and tied for the lowest number of album lists.

I expressed myself carelessly. I’m fine with 1947 for the definition of rock history, but I listen to a lot more songs from 1986 than 1947. This is what I am sure of: 1986 is my least favourite year between 1965 and 1998.

Sweeping, unsurprising victory for There is a Light..., surprisingly bad finish for The Boy with the Thorn in His Side.

The Boy... did place 10th in 1985 as well though! I was more taken aback by Livin on a Prayer missing the top 20, it seemed every other ballot was shaking its mullet to that, it must not have had too many high placings in individual lists.
