I disagree with the placement of some bands.... Pink Floyd, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and the Beach Boys definately should have been higher. Sonic Youth at #17? And why is Radiohead in front of the Jimi Hendrix experience?

U2 should be in the top 10 at least, they have put out alot more hits and cultural changing songs in the past 20 years.

No WAY did they put Pink Floyd at #49 - below Korn!!  OMG Pink Floyd deserved to be at least in the top 5 or 10.

How could bands like Korn make the list when bands like Tool and Slayer were left out, both higly original and influencial, originallity goes to Tool and influence goes to Slayer.

sonic youth fully deserved to be in the top 10

they were around before any "alternative" band ever thought of doing it
