Rolling Stone Mag's Top 500 Songs #91-100

91. Suspicious Minds: Elvis Presley- The king makes a comeback.

92. Blitzkrieg Bop: The Ramones- Established the blueprint for punk.

93. I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For: U2- A reaction to materialism.

94. Good Golly Miss Molly: Little Richard- Another song that slipped by the censors back in the 50s.

95. Blue Suede Shoes: Carl Perkins- The title came from Johnny Cash, the song is so good that is made the top 500 twice (Elvis at #430).

96. Great Balls of Fire: Jerry Lee Lewis- blasphemy to his relatives…song about lust.

97. Roll Over Beethoven: Chuck Berry- Covered by the Beach Boys and Beatles…

98. Love and Happiness: Al Green- Green geared this tune for his audience which was mostly female.

99. Fortunate Son: Creedence Clearwater Revival- Song is about rich people that plan wars and send the poor to fight them.

100. Crazy: Gnarls Barkley- I have no idea why this is here…
