  3. A good list but mr brighside to be the second greatest song of all time... don't think so! Live forever is probably Oasis best song, and truly deserves a spot in the top 10.

    And people give it a break... Nirvana aint good!! Their crap teen spirit song should be included in the american pie soundtrack, nowhere else!! Cheers..

  4. If all the Oasis songs where taken off, you'd have a decent list.

  5. Didn't get to hear the last part of this great show. Most of the top 10 I get, but way too much Oasis. They're a good bank, but not that great, but hey, obviously xfm listeners think they are...

  6. Shocking list, even when you accept that when Xfm says 'all time', it means 'songs that we've heard of from the last 25 years'. Only Nirvana and 'Live Forever' should be anywhere near the top ten.

  7. hm love will tear us apart #5, have u guys noticed how many cover does that song have? to me its the most UNDESTRUCTIBLE song ever. although not my favorite by them but its close to the top, aslo.. what happened with The Cars, Pink Floyd, SEX PISTOLS... this list sucks

  8. This should be the list of the best songs from the past 20 years to be honest, Happy to see The Killers at number 2 - Mr Brightside is THE song of our generation, was Stoned Roses - Waterfall on the list, I can't remember?
