Blender "Top 500" I've read Prince has the most (nine) songs in Blender's Top 500 list.
Another meaningless list, for sure, but does anyone where and which of his songs placed? | |

I got the Blender Mag in the mail Monday. The songs and ranks are:
24 I Could Never Take The Place Of U're Man 98 When You Were Mine 106 Little Red Corvette 113 Nothing Compare 2 U 152 I Feel For You 169 When Doves Cry 259 Kiss 375 Purple Rain 412 If I Was Your Girlfriend This was Blender's Top 500 Greatest Songs since you were born list. All the songs on the list were songs that came out between 1980 and today. I thought a lot of it was pathetic but I don't make the list. It's great that Prince has a lot of songs on the list but why is WDC so damn low. It's whatever. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

Here is what made the Top 10 according to Blender:
1 Billie Jean - Michael Jackson 2 B.O.B. - Outkast 3 Sweet Child O' Mine - Guns N'Roses 4 One - U2 5 Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana 6 Like A Prayer - Madonna 7 Love Will Tear Us Apart - Joy Division 8 Sucker MC's - Run-DMC 9 ...Baby One More Time - Britney Spears 10 In Da Club - 50 Cent And Prince doesn't show up till 24. WTF?! I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

It's good to know Brittany Spears' song ranks 160 spots ahead of WDC, 250 spots ahead of Kiss, and 366 spots ahead of Purple Rain.
By the way, how many pounds of crack was ingested before the list was finalized? All good things they say never last... | |

Also, George's Freedom is at #131. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

I knew that was a mistake to let George take all the credit for that song. The bloody guitar doesn't play itself you know. I'm assuming my "Shake" from Son of Albert was left off the list. Typical elitist head up their arse morons. The Emancipation of Andy...coming soon. | |

Blender sucks ass. It's just a Maxim magazine.
They're just putting shit like 50 Cent and Britney Spears so high on the list to appeal to teenagers. No one in their right mind can possibly think "Hit Me Babby, One More Time" is a better crafted pop song than When Doves Cry. Come on! The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

When I saw Britney at #9 and saw WDC at 169, I wanted to break something. It didn't hel that I had a headache before reading it. I swear, the whole issue made my headache worse. Blender keeps on losing credibility with me. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

OK, now I see how Adore got left off. That Britney even made the damn list much less the top 10 explains it. When they say Top 500 they must mean sales or some other meaningless gauge. They obviously couldn't mean actually great songs. They just couldn't...could they...no they couldn't...couldn't possibly...it just can't be...it just can't... When it comes to funk, i am junkie | |

WTF?! The way this list goes, it's just as well. Outkast, number 2? 50 Cents, number 10? They're not bad, but why these rankings? This list ought to infuriate fans of hip hop/rap more than Prince fans. It just shows how little judgment and perspective went into it. | |
