Time Magazines All Time 100

Time Magazines All Time 100 Songs since the beginning of Time in 1923.

Notables from the 80s:

‘Billie Jean’
‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’
‘Blue Monday’
‘Kiss’
‘It’s the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)’
'Borderline’

Well, there you have it. A couple of others made it like early Metallica and some rap and an obligatory nod to country with the inclusion of George Jones. I don't think the 80s got their props here.

I can name at least 10 other REM songs that could take the place of ITEOTWAIKI.

I'm shocked that Joy Division/New Order are included! Did they place the songs in some sort of order of greatness, and if so where did JD/NO show up?

Sugoi !!!
