I realize taste is a personal thing and all, but how "Living On A Prayer" tops this list is beyond me. A paper thin song by a shallow pop rock group shouldn't top a list like this, no matter how many it sold. The song is ok, and in some ways it hold up today, but really more as a campy, cheesy, "remember when we were kids" kind of way more than anything else. And Poison doesn't belong in a top list of any kind except top frauds of all time.

Bizriak, all commercial lists, as well as music award shows, aren't about the best acts, they're about the best SELLING acts.
