I can wholeheartedly say that this is the worst list I've ever seen in the tens, no offense to anyone.

Including your noms? Was anyone else even mildly offended by this? :P

1. "Porcelain" - Moby (1999)

2. "I Shall Be Released" - The Band (1968)

3. "Paraffin" - Ruby (1995)

4. "Big Bang Baby" - Stone Temple Pilots (1996)

5. "She's Leaving Home" - The Beatles (1967)

6. "Add Me" - Chumbawamba (2008)

7. "Just Like Honey" - The Jesus and Mary Chain (1985)

8. "Hell Yes" - Beck (2005)

9. "Grace" - Jeff Buckley (1994)

10. "Goodbye Stranger" - Supertramp (1979)

Honourable mentions to the excellent comedic songs:

Nah, I have to agree with Mindcrime. The pickings ARE pretty slim. We've pretty much exhausted all the great, great tunes over the weeks. There are definitely some good songs in this one, but not to the point that one can pick ten GREAT ones

No, not even my nominations.....ESPECIALLY not my nominations.

nah, it's natural that not everybody likes my nominations (and I couldn't be offended by him not liking other nominations) :)

say what? :shades:

now here I have to disagree with you ;)

just because you get everyone of your favourite Stones songs into the Ten on the first try doesn't mean that there aren't hundreds of great (yes, not just 'good') songs out there waiting to be nominated :)

It was a sort of a joke/rhetorical question; no replies expected :D

Everyone has their preferences and I wasn't really offended I just think there are some great songs in this list (and ones that have not made the Top 10 yet or even been nominated for that matter).

I've listened to every song, and liked many of them, but it's difficult to vote for them on one or two hearings.
