KISW's Top 999 Songs of All Time - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

ABlairican Pie · 01-04-2003, 03:20 PM

Okay, so all of you who followed the "What Song Are You Listening To Now?" thread a couple days ago may have noticed I listed songs that were part of KISW's Top 999 Songs of All Time, a year-end event they do on Seattle's Rock Station every year around New Year's Eve. This year it was rather interesting. Let's run it down and see where YOUR favorites were posted on the
countdown!! The songs were chosen by KISW listeners on line--
"Send in your top 5 songs and we'll tally them up on Christmas Day and count them down!" So the choices were very suprising:

999. "Black Betty" --Ram Jam (someone asked about this song a few months ago on CC...)
998. "Train Train" --Blackfoot
997. "Broken Home"--Papa Roach
996. "Yank Me, Crank Me" --Ted Nugent
995. "Squealer" --AC/DC
994. "Cover You in Oil" --AC/DC
993. "Change (in the House of Flies)" --Deftones
992. "Jesus Built My Hot Rod" --Ministry
991. "Always With You, Always With Me" --Joe Satriani
990. "Wait and Bleed" --Slipknot

continued...

agreed.

ABlairican Pie · 01-05-2003, 06:57 PM

How could it be a joke when they HARDLY ever play these songs?
Remember these songs that ended up in the countdown were ones CHOSEN BY LISTENERS, NOT staff. I don't know if you guys know what KISW sounds like.

Nice to see Iron Maiden represent!
