The First of My gripes is that there are two bands/groups that should not be on there because they are not Rock, Hootie & The Blowfish, I like their music but they are not Rock, and Breaks Co-Op deffinately not Rock, more Hip hop/roots than Rock.

The Second Gripe is where certain songs are such as Money by Pink Floyd and The Doors and Tom Petty's songs all are in the wrong place but I can live with the majority of where it is placed as it is random chance that they aren't getting as High as I want it to be. Ill update the end and Give my take on the top 20 song by song.
 
It's nice to see that they are still recognizing "Rock" music, not modern day alternative (which I can't believe they have the balls to call it)...well, most of the bands on there anyways.

While I don't believe that some of the bands should be on there (Eric Clapton...? Kid Rock? WTF?), overall it's a pretty good list. Good bands, some of which I had forgotten about. I'd like to see the top 20 as well, to see if their heads are as far out as some, or if they keep it a solid (for the most part) list.
 
This is all voted on type thing, It has its metal it has its alternative. Clapton was Rock back in the day, Kid Rock as well, you can say it is rock. Ill post the final 298 once they are released on the Internet, I am actualy listening it right now. But I am surprised by a few things but I will say them once I post all the remaining ones as there are going to be gripes of mine, and I voted.
 
Some of these songs are shit and I don't even know that I would consider Snow Patrol or Hootie a rock band. How in the hell does a Snow Patrol song out rank hundreds of classic rock songs? That's amazing to me.
 
Im going to be Breaking down the Top 20 song by song.

20 RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS - Under The Bridge

I am surprised it is at 20 this year, this song does well every year, but there were some big drops this year. But this song is the one that made it a contractual Obligation for the RHCP to have a song about California on all of their albums.

19 FOO FIGHTERS - Best of You

The first of the Bolters into the top 20, I personally don't think this is that great a foo fighters song, I prefer The Pretender. But it is surprising considering that it (compared to other songs on the album) wasn't played that much.

18 U2 - Beautiful Day

The second of the Bolters, this one raced up the charts while as you can see by looking at the list, U2 With or Without you dropped to 33 from its position of 3 last year. U2 had the most songs on here this year with 25.

17 THE EAGLES - Hotel California

One of the Greatest Songs of all time, should have been higher, While I was listening to it I had to tell people to shut up during the end guitar solo as noone should speak over the top of it.

16 TOOL - Sober

I am surprised that this got higher than Stinkfist, but again it is a good song and well deserving of its place on the Rock 1000

15 LIVE - Lightning Crashes

Probably my second favourite Live song, it is a good song but I would have preferred to have seen this one lower on the countdown.

14 SHIHAD - Home again

The Song that is the Highest Placed New Zealand Song on the 1000, Great song, I will have this song with me whereever I go, it is the song that reminds New Zealanders of New Zealand.

13 QUEEN - Bohemian Rhapsody

This is a Travesty, his song should have been much higher than this. That is all I need to say about this song.

12 PEARL JAM - Black

One of my top 2 Pearl Jam songs, the other being Jeremy. But this is a great song. deserves to be here.

11 LED ZEPPELIN - Stairway to Heaven

This is another Travesty, there is no need for me to elaborate on the greatness of the song.

10 RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE - Killing in the name of

Good song for getting pumped up to, not much needed to be said here. Rage is Rage and is almost always good to listen to.

9 FOO FIGHTERS - Everlong

The Highest placed Foo Fighters song, good song, great video. Dave Grohl is just awesome.

8 GUNS N' ROSES - Sweet Child of Mine

Surprised at how low this is in a way as this is an ever popular song to be heard around New Zealand in the Bars, Pubs, Kareoke clubs and everywhere really.

7 METALLICA - One

Metallica- One, well it didn't this year. It is a good song and a former no.1, Surprising that it isn'tt higher as well.

6 PINK FLOYD - Comfortably Numb

One of the best Pink Floyd songs ever. And that is very hard to say as Pink Floyd have some great songs that are on this list. I would have preferred to have heard Shine On You Crazy Diamond here instead of Comfortably Numb but that is a matter of opinion here.

5 PEARL JAM - Betterman

I don't like this song, That is all.

4 NIRVANA - Smells Like Teen Spirit

The Overratedness of this song is insane as, it isn't that good a song, just catchy, Overrated.... That is all..

3 METALLICA - Enter Sandman

Another Metalllica Song another former no.1. everyone knows this song, including my Brother who hates Metal. This is the song that has defined Metallica since its release.

2. GUNS N' ROSES - November Rain

The Song with the most votes last year, a great song that shows off the vocal ability of Axl Rose and the guitaring gift of Slash, so good a song that it had the most expensive Rock video ever until that Thirty Second to Mars video with the Chinese Emperor, I don't know what its called.




Andf finally the Number 1 is *Drumroll*....




1 AC/DC - Back in Black

What can yo say about this song that hasn't been said before, this song brought AC/DC into the Johnson era from the Bon Scott Era after Bon Scotts death. Great Song and the Bogans loved the top 20 this year. Ill add a few more of my thoughts on the countdown later on.
 
Hmmm....not the best of choices. Teen Spirit does not deserve that high rank, and I don't think Killing In The Name Of is Rage's finest three minutes. I'm not a huge Rage fan though, I've never enjoyed his voice. And the several upon several statements of FUCK YOU I WON'T DO WHAT YOU TELL ME, I was ready to drive my head through the wall after hearing it so many times.

Don't like the Foo Fighters up there either, not that song anyways. Don't know much FF 'cause I'm not a fan, but this is definitely not the best song possible to be in the top 20 of one thousand rock songs.

Metallica and Gunz N Roses are right where they belong, at the near top. Metallica might as well be the founders of Metal *NOT* Glam Metal, in my opinion, and Gunz, well...that much should be obvious.

I cannot stand U2 either, I have never liked them, their music was always just irritating. I respect the hell out of them though, what they've done and accomplished, they should have a spot here, rightfully so.

The rest is OK, not one I fully agree with, and the number one song is a good choice, though I could think of better songs I'd want to put up there. That was what put AC/DC on the map for me, and made me into an AC/DC fan. It does well to be at number one.

The top 1,000 is mostly good, but a lot of it's bad, but that's just the way it is when there's a ton of people voting. They know what rock is. That's all that matters to me. Good countdown, thanks for posting it, Shadow.
 
Absolute horse shit and drivel. Those are the 20 greatest rock songs? Are you serious? Not a single one of those deserved to be in the top twenty, especially not the fucking Foo Fighters and Tool. No god damn way. What a disgusting excuse for a list of great rock music. Any song by the Doors, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and the Who should have replaced every single song on there and then maybe the list would've been adequate at best.

Unbelievable. I don't understand how someone could write that list and think that anyone could take them seriously.
 
It was voted for I just gave the list here. Come on Tool is awesome, And it also changes every year. It isn't that bad. There are only two-three songs I disagree with being on there entirely. This is actually a better top 20 then last year that had My Chemical Romance in there. This only has one Emo song in it. The Top 20 is usually shit every year the lead up to it however is the entire thing. It brings up some gems that I forget about without this like Candlebox-10000 Horses and Ocean Colour Scene- The Riverboat Song. as well as introducing me to songs that i don't know that well if at all like THE ANGELS - Let The Night Roll On, and JEFF HEALY BAND - While My Guitar Gently Weaps. The journey too it was awesome, as I was about to leave for Un on the Friday I pumped Up Bat out of Hell, a far better song than the majority of the Top 20, It shakes up the System to here what people voted for. And Btw X, Tool is perhaps the band with the third biggest fanbase per capita in New Zealand behind Metallica and AC/DC.
 
Still, I mean, no offense man, but that New Zealand list is just sad. Thats what happens though when you let the masses of people vote on something like this, the same masses of people who have copies of "Who Let the Dogs Out" in their car...

What a sad, sad world we live in..
