If a song really sucks, can we un-vote it? I mean...we can second songs, can we detract them based on thumbs down? If we can, please please please don't include Unchained Melody. *shudders* It's seriously the most overrated wedding dance tripe ever to cross the pike.

Maybe Unchained Melody belongs in a 'Most covered song of all time' thread right behind Eleanor Rigby.Neither are my favorite songs but they are/were very popular. This thread isn't your favorite rock songs of all time anyway.
Most are though like this one. Battle Of Evermore - The Love Mongers (Cover by Ann Wilson of Heart ) |

That's true, what's popular isn't necessarily any good. So, the trick is to sift the good from the merely mainstream. That's what the final 4 will end up being, the good, if'n I know me some musicians!
Case in point: Old Time Rock n Roll can bite me...but EVERY band EVER covers it.

Keep going! And we have 99 songs, so seconding currently guarantees that an entry will make it...
