1. Baby One More Time is known more for it's video than the actual song. The song, as Steven loves to say, is basically locally popular here in America.

2. Hey Ya! and Get Ur Freak On are staples in the 00's music books. One single handedly pushed an album to 7 million worldwide and the other is possibly her greatest and most known hit. And yes, BadBitch, both of them placed on RS's list. Umbrella is great, but no where near the greatest.

3. That list is solid from all corners. But since this is ATRL, only a select few may comprehend that.

4. Like A Prayer and Vogue etc. may be Madge's biggest hits but Boarderline is what started it all. Well, technically speaking.

Jesus.

All of this.

They are, according to Time.

You think Baby One More Time is local?

2. Hey Ya! and Get Ur Freak On's popularity had a lot to do with their music videos as well, especially the latter one, but that's what music videos do, they elevate and make the mass public appreciate the song a lot more. Is that not what the Single Ladies music video did for the song? I remember people being over SL, but when the video came out, everyone changed their tune.

3. Solid, but not perfect, there will always be room for correction when others voice their opinions.

4. You're contradicting yourself, "Borderline" may have started it all....kind of like "...Baby One More Time", but it's not Madge's best song nor is it her most critically acclaimed/most-recognizable song.



JESUS!

Obviously.. And so does this list, and everybody else

Some good choices, but they played themselves in the 2000s.

I honestly think this is one of the better ones of these lists. If you are unfamiliar with one of the older songs on the list, go and familiarize yourself with it, try to understand why it had the impact it had instead of immediately decrying it. If you are unhappy about a recent song being omitted, remember that they can only put 100 songs from almost 90 years of music. Omissions of great pop songs are inevitable.

The song was huge huge HUGE, but it's just a cover of Dolly Parton's I Will Always Love You, so covers shouldn't really make lists like this. It's a personal song Parton wrote about her breakup, and Houston doesn't deserve to make "greatest" lists off of it.

But, but... Sinead O'Connor's "Nothing Compares 2 U" IS a cover. It was originally sung by Prince's The Family, and I'm sure there are a few other covers on this list.

Where is BR on top500 song of all time on Rolling Stone?

[foxaylove]

I have NEVER heard anyone in their life call "...Baby One More Time" local. I need to put that mess in my siggy.

They omitted too many, and Janelle Monae and many choices seem out of place

But what is quality to you? Whatever it may be will never be 100% agreed with the next person. It's called an "opinion" and preference when evaluating things. What guidelines are set to reaffirm a song being horrid, bad, okay, good, or great?

Obviously quality is a matter of appreciation but the list seems pretty accurate to me.l dont trust Greatest lists full of top 10 songs.

I don't think any covers should be on there.

DEAD at Baby one more time being local.

A damn mess.
