Postby Wayne » Wed Nov 25, 2009 8:20 am

Well, we've seen NME's Top 100 Albums of the 00's, now here's their list of the decade's Top 100 tracks. You'll never guess who beat out MGMT and The Strokes...

WOW, never would have guess that. I must be getting out of touch. I have not heard at least half of these songs.

I'll agree with one statement they make. About All These Things That I've Done..."The best The Killers single by some distance, a stirring, huge-hooked, last-song-of-the-night monster which is the only time the band have truly touched greatness." Yup...then why did you cunts then select Jenny Was A Friend Of Mine ahead of it? This whole list is completely nonsensical.

The lists sucks! MIA in 4th place and "All the Tings That I have Done" my personal favorite from the decade at 95. I was wondering if this list was made by musical gurus from NME or was it people's choice.

The last 10 years were amazing for music and the NME has totally missed the boat. I think I counted 3 maybe 4 tracks that would've made my top 100. 'The Cedar Room' by the Doves and 'Everything In Its Right Place' by Radiohead are probably the best two songs on this list. The Rapture in a top anything list is an abomination of seismic proportions.
