Marky,
this is a super list of songs... covering just about every artist who deserved to have one of their songs to apear.

My first shocker was #5 :o killer cut, I like this song more today than it's original date of release.

Marky: I'm surprised how safe this looks for a Rolling Stone chart. Are you sure this isn't a Billboard chart in disguise?BTW: The Message @ #25, Good Times at #60. What a difference a year makes.
