LOS ANGELES, Nov. 17 (UPI) -- Rolling Stone's new best-songs list may leave young fans wondering if the panel of experts even considered songs of the past quarter century.
Of the magazine's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time, 202 were written in the 1960s, 144 in the next decade and 55 in the 1980s. Just three "current" hits -- Eminem's "Lose Yourself" at No. 166 and "Stan" at No. 290 and OutKast's "Hey Ya" at No. 180 -- made the list.
Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" at No. 9 is the only Top 10 song written after 1971.
The Beatles lead all groups with 23 songs on the list, followed by the Rolling Stones with 14, Bob Dylan's 12 and Elvis' 11.
Interestingly, Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone" tops the list, before the Rolling Stones' "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction," John Lennon's "Imagine," "What's Going On" by Marvin Gaye and Aretha Franklin's "Respect."
