Billboard's Top Rock Songs of the Decade

It's not those who write the laws that have the greatest impact on society.  It's those who write the songs.

No actual rock songs, no actual rock bands.

Waiting for the list with actual rock songs.

Funny stuff! And anyone who says rock is dead isn't looking very hard.

Still waiting for the real rock songs from Billboard.

If they don't react, perhaps we have to take measures of our own, nein?

We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...

Agreed.  Desperate times call for desperate measures.

But please do spare those cultural sites in old Persia!

They had nothing to do with the Billboard choice.

(Present deponent dangerously close to inappropriate commentary...)

Just assume that the scene takes place over your favorite non-cultural site.

For some people, that would be the R&R Hall of Fame....but I enjoyed it, especially the Jim Morrison and Janis Joplin exhibits, including her Porsche 356 roadster.  (Except Dick Dale isn't in there.)

RRHOF is a cultural site? Could have fooled me!

Oh my. They'll now need anti-aircraft guns in Cleveland.
