Great ranking, it's shows us who you really are. I always said you can tell a lot about a person by what they listen to, and it shows you are a thoughtful, good natured and down to earth individual, but with a fun loving sense of humor. That's why we all love you!

Very enjoyable, Larry! Unless I'm mistaken, only one of your top 20 was released after 1979, scientific proof that '64-'79 was the greatest period in music, bookended by the start of the Beatles and the end of Zeppelin.
Great list Larry. I couldn't rank my favourite songs as there are so many, 10 songs i love but not in any paticular order are ...... The Beatles - Happiness is a warm gun Rolling stones - Shine a light Oasis - Champaigne Supernova Bee Gees - New york mining disaster John Lennon - God The Ronnettes - Be my Baby Elton John - Empty Garden Paul McCartney - No more lonely nights Blur - Under the Westway Elvis - If i can dream.
Awesome ranking Larry!, I admire your dedication 👍. Also I checked out a few of the songs that I wasn't familiar with. I really enjoyed Snow in June by the Northern Pikes 👍xxx.
As you would expect from me Larry almost all of my top 100 songs would be Beatles songs but still we differ a bit,for example I would have Penny Lane ahead of Strawberry Fields Forever,Nowhere Man ahead I Want You(She's So Heavy),I Feel Fine ahead of A Hard Day's Night and Another Day by Paul McCartney ahead of Back Seat of My Car but that's the beauty of music,we all like great music differently,as Phil McCracken would say "rock on"! Bob
A truly great top 100 that I cannot fault, there are some songs and albums in there that I must dig out of my own collection and listen to as they have not been played in a long time. Now here's an idea for another ranking video of closing tracks on albums, as they are just as important as the opening track when bands and artists come to the point in an albums creation of selecting the running order before it goes to press. One album for me that has both is Revolver. It kicks off with Taxman and closes with Tomorrow Never Knows....
I was not disappointed! My top five might be "Surf's Up" - The Beach Boys "Long Long Long" - The Beatles "The Sound of Silence (Acoustic)" - Simon & Garfunkel "Close to You" - Carpenters "He's a Rebel" - The Crystals
Larry..this was a big undertaking..I might do my top 50..There are 30 songs on your list that I like..Only two would make my top 50 but the other 28 could make my top 100..great job, I won’t even make a smart assed comment❤👍glen
Good job. I only know about half the songs. Great top 10 - my number 1 from your top 10 would be Strawberry Fields Forever. My five favourite songs from your whole list in order would be 1 Whole Lotta Rosie 2 Sabbath Bloody Sabbath 3 Into the Void 4 Rock n Roll 5 Are You Experienced
Definitely a great list Larry it’s honestly hard to come up with a great list but I definitely do have. Top 100 as well but there’s so many great songs it’s definitely hard to make a great list
A Day In The Life is (for me) without a single doubt the greatest and most important song from the 60s. It is simply the crowning achievement of the band who was not only the most popular and influential, but whose evolution and innovation were unparalleled at that time. EPIC is a word misused nowadays but A Day In The Life managed to put Lennon and McCartney to share and introduce groundbreaking ideas like they never did before. Phil Collins explained that Sgt. Pepper was the album that made all the rest bands ask "wait, you can do that?". Quick anecdote: I heard ADITL in 1994 when I was a teenager. The radio DJ did'nt say a word. My first thought was "Wow that new song is incredible!, who the hell are this new guys?" Immediatelly, the DJ said "from 1967, this was A Day In The Life by The Beatles, stay tuned and we'll be right back after this commercial" .
There were quite a few on your list for which I am unfamiliar. I did like seeing Randy Newman leading it off. Great opening and closing track by The Who on Who's Next and well represented. Great number one song.
You have a lot of album openers & closers in your top 100 songs which is quite cool, what’s also cool is the Beatles have your top 3 favourite songs. I will check out your favourite U2 song as I’m not familiar with it.
Lots of good stuff you listed..Great pick Atomic Rooster/off the top of my head some of my favorite 100..not ranked Al Green/Belle Rolling Stones/Jumping' Jack Flash Marcy Playground/Sex And Candy Nick Drake/One of these things first Genesis/Entangled Little Richard/I don't know what you got but it's got me Elvis Costello/Alison Little Steven& the Disciples of Soul/Princess of Little Italy
Well we agree on the number 1 song of all time but I have no idea of the 99 for me, so I think this was a big ask to rank all 100 of yours. I know most of these songs but quite a few I havent heard so I will check out your play list. I cant promise I'll get through the whole 10 minutes of Yes meandering through America as it's my favourite S&G song but I'll give it a go. great video Larry.
Larry, your list is wrong... :) Just kidding. We actually share 8 songs: 1) Are You Experienced? 2) Can't Find My Way Home 3) Hey Jude 4) Strawberry Fields Forever 5) Tomorrow Never Knows 6) Won't Get Fooled Again 7) How Many More Times 8) Ramble Tamble Not sure how you could possibly put them in any kind of order. I salute you.
top 3 bangers.. i didn't see any Thin Lizzy, Budgie, Sweet. John DuCann was the guitarist for Andromeda and The Attack who played on Death walks behind You. and he played briefly for Thin Lizzy. Earle Mankey whos on early Sparks with his brother James Mankey did go on to form a brilliant band Concrete Blonde. my fave Sparks tune is "Everybody's Stupid". That's for Sure.

Hey Jude and Let it Be are not songs I like. Hate the na na na. Our tastes are so different, But I guess this town is big enough for both of us. Best songs, Part I: The Replacements - Left of the Dial / Unsatisfied / Answering Machine/ Bastards of Young Urge Overkill - Sister Havana Neil Young - Powderfinger Dick and Dee Dee - the Mountain's High Jimi Hendrix - Purple Haze The Velvet Underground - There She Goes Again Roxy Music - Love is the Drug California Dreamin' - The Mamas & The Papas Stand By Me - Ben E. King Chuck Jackson - Any Day Now The Animals - don't let me be Misunderstood and the "Monterey" The Yardbirds - Smokestack Lightning and Heart Full of Soul Velvet Underground - Sunday Morning and There She Goes Again Beach Boys - God Only Knows Deon Jackson - Love makes the world go round Boz Scaggs - Loan me a time and I'll be Long Gone Love _ Forever changes - Alone Again Or or House is not a Motel Neil Young - I've been waiting for you, Cowgirl in the Sand Buffalo Springfield - Mr Soul, Expecting to Fly, For What its worth The Dovers - what am gonna do? (Psychedelic Nuggets ) The Kinks - Waterloo Sunset Tommy James and Shondells - Crystal Blue Persuasion Van Morrison - Astral Weeks, Besides You, Caravan The Small Faces - Itchycoo Park, Tin Soldier Sam Cooke - Change is Gonna Come / Bring it on home to me Buffalo Springfield - Mr Soul, expecting to fly, Sad Memory Zombies - Tell He No! The Beatles - All I gotta do/ She Said She Said/ I'm Only Sleeping/ Things we said today, I am the Walrus The Doors - Break on Through (to the other side) Rolling Stones - Satisfaction/ Last Time /Jumpin Jack Flash Simon and Garfunkel The Sounds of Silence and April Come She Will, At the Zoo Del Shannon - Runaway Doors - Break on Through Peter and Gordon -Go to Pieces (written by Del Shannon) Temptations - My Baby The Four Tops - Ask the Lonely Dylan - Positively Fourth Street/ Sad-Eyed Lady of the Lowlands Mary Wells - The one who really loves you Boz Scaggs - Loan me a time - get up and make my life shine Bob Dylan - You go your way and I'll go mine Neil Young - I've been waiting for you, Cowgirl in the Sand, Love in Mind, Buffalo Springfield - Hung upside down (steven stills), Expecting to fly (Neil Young) The Beatles - If I Needed Someone/All I've got to Do/ I am the Walrus The Smiths - Stop me if you've heard this one before/ girlfriend in a coma The Move - Chinatown, Beautiful daughter, Hello Suzie (Lynne and Wood) Smokey Robinson and the Miracles - I'll try something new/ When the Hunter gets captured by the Game (Marvelettes) / Bad Girl Psychedelic Furs -Love My Way, The Ghost in You Graham Parker and the Rumor - Sometimes i feel like "pourin it all out" and "You've got to be Kidding" Marshall Crenshaw - Cynical Girl/ Whenever you're on my mind Paul Westerberg - Things/ First Glimmer/ Love Untold Todd Rundgren - We gotta get you a woman David Bowie - Queen Bitch/ Suffragette City/ Life on Mars Elvis Costello and the Attractions - This Years Girl Chrissie Hynde and The Pretenders - Kid / Mystery Achievement Tears for Fears - Everybody wants to save the world/ Shout Lloyd Cole - stuff from the album "don't get weird on me babe" Wilco - Jesus Etc and Impossible Germany/Unlikely Japan The Animals - please don't let me be misunderstood and Monterey CCR - Green River, Born on the Bayou Velvet Underground - Sunday Morning and There she goes again P J Harvey - Good Fortune Van Morrison- Listen to the Lion/ Astral Weeks Curtis Mayfield and the Impressions - Gypsy Woman/ Minstrel and Queen/ I'm so Proud Rod Stewart - Me for Mine/ With Faces .. Oh no not my baby/ Maggie May Sam Cooke -change gonna come Patti Drew - Tell Him Dinosaur Jr Start Choppin or almost any song from Where You Been? The Lovin' Spoonful - do you believe in magic? Psychedelic Furs _ Love My Way and Pretty in Pink and Sister Europe The Outsiders - Time won't let me and She's so respectable Eddie Money -baby hold on to me and Shakin' Jimi Hendrix - Little Wing Neil Young - Little wing Stevie Ray Vaughan - Little wing (Hendrix cover)/ Cold Shot Big Star with Alex Chilton - Thirteen
@@mikerem9997 Sure. Lemonheads are great with Shame About Ray, Great Big No, and Outdoor Type. Don't like what I have heard of Pink Floyd, only Money, Comfortably Numb and Wish You Were Here. The Wall album is really bad. Sister Havana by Urge Overkill is a great rocker. Prince - Little Red Corvette, When you Were Mine. Larry mentions The Guess Who and I love "No Time" , also "Laughin."
Good fun, way more than Ameri-politics Ween always makes me think of Tenacious D. I wonder where Lemmie's poncho is. Is the closing track the artist's favorite? I think it's been said, it points to the next phase of that artists next project.
My "favorites" list is not the same as the "greatest" list...elevating music one doesn't like is not easy, but it is the only way to be an honest observer.

Very enjoyable, Larry! Unless I'm mistaken, only one of your top 20 was released after 1979, scientific proof that '64-'79 was the greatest period in music, bookended by the start of the Beatles and the end of Zeppelin.
Great list Larry. I couldn't rank my favourite songs as there are so many, 10 songs i love but not in any paticular order are ......
The Beatles - Happiness is a warm gun
Rolling stones - Shine a light
Oasis - Champaigne Supernova
Bee Gees - New york mining disaster
John Lennon - God
The Ronnettes - Be my Baby
Elton John - Empty Garden
Paul McCartney - No more lonely nights
Blur - Under the Westway
Elvis - If i can dream.
Great list, I enjoyed this video a lot.
Glad you enjoyed!
Awesome ranking Larry!, I admire your dedication 👍. Also I checked out a few of the songs that I wasn't familiar with. I really enjoyed Snow in June by the Northern Pikes 👍xxx.
Cool, thanks!

Your top 6 are very similar to my top 10. Superb taste!

"Surf's Up" - The Beach Boys
"Long Long Long" - The Beatles
"The Sound of Silence (Acoustic)" - Simon & Garfunkel
"Close to You" - Carpenters
"He's a Rebel" - The Crystals
Larry..this was a big undertaking..I might do my top 50..There are 30 songs on your list that I like..Only two would make my top 50 but the other 28 could make my top 100..great job, I won’t even make a smart assed comment❤👍glen
Good job. I only know about half the songs. Great top 10 - my number 1 from your top 10 would be Strawberry Fields Forever. My five favourite songs from your whole list in order would be
1 Whole Lotta Rosie
2 Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
3 Into the Void
4 Rock n Roll
5 Are You Experienced
This list really made me realize that closing tracks might just be superior haha
Definitely a great list Larry it’s honestly hard to come up with a great list but I definitely do have. Top 100 as well but there’s so many great songs it’s definitely hard to make a great list
If you put Sketches of Winkle in the top 70, I can tell Ween will continue to be one of your favorites. Excellent list, Larry!
A Day In The Life is (for me) without a single doubt the greatest and most important song from the 60s.

Lots of good stuff you listed..Great pick Atomic Rooster/off the top of my head some of my favorite 100..not ranked

Marcy Playground/Sex And Candy
Nick Drake/One of these things first
Genesis/Entangled
Little Richard/I don't know what you got but it's got me
Elvis Costello/Alison
Little Steven& the Disciples of Soul/Princess of Little Italy
1)Turn off your mind and relax and go down stream...great line..and drumming
I'd put Donovan Leitch's Aquarius somewhere in the top 30. The list for the top 40 is excellent, and overall, it's very good. Thanks, Larry!
Well we agree on the number 1 song of all time but I have no idea of the 99 for me, so I think this was a big ask to rank all 100 of yours. I know most of these songs but quite a few I havent heard so I will check out your play list. I cant promise I'll get through the whole 10 minutes of Yes meandering through America as it's my favourite S&G song but I'll give it a go. great video Larry.
Prog rock is the best, Tony! :D
100 % John Lennon in top 3
Mr Sun, Mr Moon

2) Can't Find My Way Home
3) Hey Jude
4) Strawberry Fields Forever
5) Tomorrow Never Knows
6) Won't Get Fooled Again
7) How Many More Times

What about the Lemonheads? You don't like Pink Floyd?
@@mikerem9997 Sure. Lemonheads are great with Shame About Ray, Great Big No, and Outdoor Type. Don't like what I have heard of Pink Floyd, only Money, Comfortably Numb and Wish You Were Here. The Wall album is really bad.
Sister Havana by Urge Overkill is a great rocker. Prince - Little Red Corvette, When you Were Mine. Larry mentions The Guess Who and I love "No Time" , also "Laughin."
Good fun, way more than Ameri-politics Ween always makes me think of Tenacious D. I wonder where Lemmie's poncho is. Is the closing track the artist's favorite? I think it's been said, it points to the next phase of that artists next project.
My "favorites" list is not the same as the "greatest" list...elevating music one doesn't like is not easy, but it is the only way to be an honest observer.

Not sitting through 100, condense it to 10!
No.
Whip it on me, Jim.
No Pink Floyd song Larry? So sad…..
A pike is a fish
Yes, I know...
Pike County Fair, we used to go to ...a county in NY.
Why Beatles and solos among them? But a great listing otherwise. I don't think any of the songs on the list are amongst my top 100 :)
Why can't I have solo songs by The Beatles???
@@canadianstudmuffin Off course you can. I only wrote it because I don't like either the Beatles or solos :)
Forgot about Genesis?
No. I just love other songs more.
@@canadianstudmuffinok. Otherwise a great list.
Hardly any of these songs charted . 🤷♂️ .
Honestly I could care less if any of these songs made the music charts... Thanks.
Mozart and Beethoven should be embarrassed for never hitting the Hot 100
