301. Street Fighting Man: The Rolling Stones- Back when rock was about revolution and bad behavior as opposed to getting on Grey’s Anatomy and Glee.
302. Get Up, Stand Up: Bob Marley- Amazing how many of these potheads were about revolution. You’d think they’d be too mellow to care!
303. Heart of Gold: Neil Young- Young’s second appearance. Old Man didn’t make it though. Amazing.
304. Sign o the Times: Prince- According the write-up, this made the list b/c it was socially conscious during the age of hair metal.
305. One Way or Another: Blondie- Classic obsession…then she wants to ditch him.
306. Like a Prayer: Madonna- When it’s time to burn crosses, call Madonna. Nothing like a little KKK solidarity!
307. One More Time: Daft Punk- The first use of the Auto-Tune in a hit song. Damn them to hell.
308. Do Ya Think I’m Sexy: Rod Stewart- Everything that was wrong with the seventies is here.
309. Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain: Willie Nelson- This is actually a cover of an old standard. Made Willie a star.
310. Ruby Tuesday: The Rolling Stones- Goodbye Ruby Tuesday…
