Best Songs of all time, Rock, alternative rock, beethoven

I was just reading another blog where the best rock songs and best alternative songs were listed (with rankings, 7-11). I had to wonder why they made a distinction between rock and alternative? None of his/her alternative choices (mostly green day) were not "rock." Few of mine are, either, thus "alternative rock."

I suppose my next list might include the best rock, alternative, and classical music tracks (or classical music selections, as the classical radio stations call them). Coming in at #3, it's Beethoven, with his Fifth; at second, it's The Beatles, and at #1, it's Queen. Queen, keep on rocking.

So Boston is like number 4?

If you recall the old Dana Carvey Casey Kasem bit from SNL, he went on to count down the top 3 rock acts "of all time" and it was no surprise that the Stones were 3, and the Beatles 2, but then he goes, and at #1, it's Queen... and goes on to praise queen in his Casey voice. Funny stuff.
