This is a pretty good, comprehensive list overall, but it flabbergasts me that they chose the Leonard Cohen version of "Hallelujah" over the Jeff Buckley one. Buckley's version is objectively better. Also, it's not as though they have an aversion to covers, otherwise they wouldn't put down Whitney Houston for "I Will Always Love You." Anyways, that's just my gripe with the list; great quiz though!

I disagree; Buckley's cover is subjectively better. I very much prefer Cohen's version myself, but I know many, if not most, prefer Buckley's cover.

A very close call, but when I want to listen to Hallelujah I play the Cohen version. Also I think a nod is given to the original when the original performer also wrote the song. I haven't looked through the list enough to prove that theory, though.

All Along the Watchtower is a cover as well. Bob Dylan originally wrote and recorded it, but the Jimi Hendrix version is on the list.

Dylan liked Hendrix's version far more than his own having gone on record saying "It was Jimi's song, I just wrote it." In the liner notes of his album Biograph, he says "I liked Jimi Hendrix's record of this {All Along the Watchtower} and ever since he died I've been doing it that way... Strange how when I sing it, I always feel it's a tribute to him in some kind of way."

This has no bearing on the subjective choice with respect to which version is better, just an interesting factoid.

I’m pretty sure it’d be the Rolling Stone’s list. It’s Rolling Stone Magazine, not Rolling Stones Magazine.

When I first opened this quiz I got really confused. What do you mean "guess the artist?" Wouldn't all of the answers be "The Rolling Stones??" Oh, THAT Rolling Stone.

It wasn't until this comment that I realised this list wasn't by the band the Rolling Stones... Thought Gasolina was a very leftfield choice from Jagger...

Could you accept "Robinson" instead of having to type out Smokey Robinson and the Miracles?

Might as well have "F The Police" at number one. 50 years from now people are going to look really stupid trying desperately to stay on the "right" side of history.

My god there are some garbage songs on that list. Taylor Swift? Lorde?? What has the world come to?

pure heroine is probably top 5 most influential albums among gen z and taylor swift is arguably the most successful artist of this century.

I’d highly encourage you to listen to all too well as it isn’t like the rest of taylor’s bland pop songs at all.

Nice quiz. I scored 81/100, but I honestly have not heard of most of the songs that I missed. Or I guessed other versions, like with "Gloria". I tried Them, Van Morrison, Laura Branigan, no good. Well, I still had fun, thanks!

What a politically created crap filled list. 50 of these songs are garbage.
