The Greatest Songs of All Time

Continuing in the pattern of the Greatest Albums of All Time thread, this time around it's for individual songs!

For any newly joining this survey, every user can add up to 5 new entries, and can second or third any existing entries.

When a song hits 3 votes, it gets set aside for use in the poll (coming soon)

I'll kick things of with:

B.B. King - Key to the Highway +1
Black Sabbath - Paranoid +1
Clash - London Calling +1
Pink Floyd - Hey You +1
Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody +1

Excellent choice. So you just CTRL-C the list and add that in there, like so...

Barney - The Wheels On the Bus +1
B.B. King - Key to the Highway +1
Black Sabbath - Paranoid +1
Clash - London Calling +1
Pink Floyd - Hey You +1
Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody +1

Somehow, I get the feeling this song is going to win....
