The best song in the world?

Rolling Stone magazine polled 172 musicians, critics and industry insiders to compile their '500 Greatest Songs of All Time' poll, based on the success and 'influence' of individual songs rather than the quality of the music and lyrics, but is that fair?

The best songs

The problem with voting was that, of course, the first criticism of the chart was immediately directed to the fact that it was created primarily with regard to writers and performers and not to the songs themselves. What the album survey was most criticized for is even more evident in its sequel. Of the total number of songs, 357 are from America and 117 from Britain, only ten bars were occupied by Canada and eight by Ireland, while only one song from another country (La Bamba by Ritchie Valens. The Beatles received the most entries in the entire list, placing a total of twenty-three songs , but none of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon was released, Pearl Jam, Green Day or Soundgarden are nowhere to be seen, and not even Michael Jackson's song Thriller, which at one time dictated a new direction in popular music and, with its revolutionary visual processing, also a new era of video clips , did not make it into the top 50. The benefit and meaning of similar (musical) polls, whether they are compiled by a prestigious magazine or the participants of a discussion forum, can be summed up with a slight exaggeration under the saying, how many cherries are so many cherries. At least on one thing, everyone undoubtedly agrees: it is it's fun.

The best songs in the country

Shouldn't all the people in the world vote for the best seeds in the world? It works for us now. No critics, musicians or music experts. Everyone can vote here. The condition is that in Russia, people can vote only for Russian compositions, in Ireland, for Irish compositions, etc. To search for the best compositions in the world, when each country has its hits and let that country vote them out. All people in the world can vote for the country's hits. Songwriters and performers will surely be happy if their songs win.

Charts of anything (by the way, quite recently the same magazine came up with a new idea and Pink Floyd's Brain Damage won the "Best song about going crazy" poll) are always treacherous, because there is practically no universal arbiter who remains completely impartial. Everyone is influenced by their age (in other words, the time they grew up listening to music), the place where they live (American society perceives a number of compositions in a historical context that is completely different in Europe or other countries), but also by personal preferences. How can anyone compare five hundred albums (or any amount of anything) without hearing all of them on the list?
