      I wouldn't say that Hey, Jude should take it's place. There are better Beatles song. Like every song on Revolver. That really changed how music was made in the 60s. But, I think the list included I Want to Hold Your Hand because it is the precursor to Beatlemania. And we all know what that did to the 60s.

      1, For the 70's you need Iron Man- Black Sabbath and Child in Time or Smoke on the Water- Deep Purple
      2. For the 80's you definitely need either For Whom the Bell Tolls or Master of Puppets. They were defining songs in metal
      3. The 90's were iconic for their boy bands, a song from The Backstreet Boys or NSYNC is appropriate
      4. Nothing from Ariana Grande belongs on 2010s list..... definitely not Thank U Next....Something from Ed Sheeran makes more sense

    My Top Ten Songs With explanation
    10.) Cafe On the Left Bank- Wings
    This song is very unheard and don’t know why
    It’s such a catchy song with an awesome riff that I can’t get enough of and it sounds like a Beatle song but it’s not and the Beatles were way better than Wings and if this song got confused for a Beatle song than it’s that good
    And Paul McCartney’s vocals In this song are incredible
    9.) Sweet Child O’ Mine- Guns N’ Roses
    Very Very Popular Song this one it brings out the amazing vocals of Axl Rose and the riff is also really good and the guitar in this song is very inspiring and amazing and in concerts it probably sounds really good
    8.) Good Vibrations- The Beach Boys
    Old song on this list which is another classic love song and the vocals in this song are amazing and the effects they add in the song are incredible
    7.) Smells Like Teen Spirit- Nirvana
    There weren’t a lot of great 90’s rock classics
    But Smells Like Teen Spirit is definitely one of them, with Kurt Cobain’s vocals and guitar is unbelievably talented and before their 1991 album “Nevermind” Nirvana wasn’t really that famous but when this album and song came out they were incredibly famous
    6.) Hotel California- The Eagles
    Total classic there’s very few songs that can top this song, even though at the end the lyrics were creepy and people say this is a cursed song but they can go screw themselves because the songs vocals and lyrics by Glenn Frey and Don Felder’s music this song really topped the charts of 1977
    5.) (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction- The Rolling Stones
    Written by Keith Richards the lead guitarist which came to him in a dream it really brought The Rolling Stones on the top charts and it helped the Stones make their place as the fifth best band in the world and Mick Jagger’s vocals really help and who can forget about that riff
    4.) Won’t Get Fooled Again- The Who
    Very Long Song it’s a little over 8 minutes long and it was on the album “Who’s Next” in 1971 and that album is a classic and this is one of the reasons why With Pete Townshend’s Guitar skills and John Entwistle’s bass helping Pete and Keith keep on track and Roger Daltrey’s vocals really gave the song its power and it was a worthy rival of “Stairway to Heaven”
    3.) Hey Jude - The Beatles
    How can the greatest band in the world not be on this list or anyone’s list this again a long song and it’s over 7 minutes long and some people say it’s a diss track from Paul to John but ai think that was “Too Many People” but anyway its a song about John’s first son with his first wife Cynthia Powell about how John has been making his life hard by cheating on his mother, divorcing her, and marrying someone else who didn’t even love him the much so Paul wrote a song about how John is making Julian’s life hard and that Julian needs to not make it bad as the song says and Paul writes a song that at first they didn’t like but then when it was released on the radio everybody loved it
    2.) Stairway to Heaven- Led Zeppelin
    Another long song but totally worth it
    It has one of the greatest guitar solo’s of all time and an unforgettable acoustic guitar performance by Jimmy Page and Robert Plant’s vocals are incredible and the lyrics he wrote made it amazing and at the end of the song that’s one of the most unforgettable line’s in music “And she’s buying the Stairway to Heaven”
    Honorable Mentions:
    Light My Fire- The Doors
    Imagine- John Lennon
    Purple Haze- The Jimi Hendrix Experience
    Let It Be- The Beatles
    Yesterday- The Beatles
    Here Comes the Sun- The Beatles
    Back in Black- ACDC
    Johnny B. Goode- Chuck Berry
    Dream On- Aerosmith
    Another Brick In The Wall Part 2- Pink Floyd
    Comfortably Numb- Pink Floyd
    Master Of Puppets- Metallica
    Enter Sandman- Metallica
    Staying Alive- Bee Gees
    Welcome to the Jungle- Guns N’ Roses
    Thriller- Michael Jackson
    1.) Bohemian Rhapsody- Queen
    There’s no explanation why this is #1
