Am I the only one who prefer Genesis over Oblivian? :?

Thank God they didn't include Rihanna "Work feat. Drake". The song is overrated and I hate it :angry-banghead:

Perfect choice for No.1 but their No. 5 is probably the worst song of the decade

Six Kanye songs and the lowest is ranked #53. That’s dominance.

I like pop music, but this list exaggerated a bit, I prefer the P4k list.
BUT there are a lot of cool songs on the list.

Ariel Pink is apparently no longer an "album artist"...I hope this is not confirmed with the next lists

I like this list more than I thought I would; there are some interesting picks especially in the second half of the list. While it's pop-heavy at the top, I like many of the specific tracks they highlighted.
