Interesting article, and proof that there's alot more diverse opinions than what the 1%ers (RM and fans that occupy message boards) arrive to as "consensus".

Well, obviously they were going to pick The Fixer. All these magazines do... But there's some really good songs there.

Wish you had just said what it was before I read through it. Now that I know what #1 on that list was, it immediately lost all of my interest.

I should have guessed what it was...

The Fixer is far from the best song of the 00s and onward but it's a pretty good song.

I'd love to square off with him .... but I fear I'd lose to someone with such an awesome name! I'm actually jealous I didn't come up with the name IlluminEddie myself ;)
