Can’t argue with the top three! This was fun.

Larry nice job on this list. What a huge undertaking! Thanks for the effort. Cheers Brian

[@morrisgautreau6704]

Great ranking, it's shows us who you really are. I always said you can tell a lot about a person by what they listen to, and it shows you are a thoughtful, good natured and down to earth individual, but with a fun loving sense of humor. That's why we all love you!

[@marvinmoenen4151]

Very nice list larry enjoyed waching it 👍✌️

[@canadianstudmuffin]

[@nicholasperl]

I was not disappointed! My top five might be "Surf's Up" - The Beach Boys "Long Long Long" - The Beatles "The Sound of Silence (Acoustic)" - Simon & Garfunkel "Close to You" - Carpenters "He's a Rebel" - The Crystals

Great list Larry. I couldn't rank my favourite songs as there are so many, 10 songs i love but not in any paticular order are ...... The Beatles - Happiness is a warm gun Rolling stones - Shine a light Oasis - Champaigne Supernova Bee Gees - New york mining disaster John Lennon - God The Ronnettes - Be my Baby Elton John - Empty Garden Paul McCartney - No more lonely nights Blur - Under the Westway Elvis - If i can dream.

[@ImmutableUniverse]

Great list, I enjoyed this video a lot.

[@canadianstudmuffin]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@mainzergirl9610]

Very enjoyable, Larry! Unless I'm mistaken, only one of your top 20 was released after 1979, scientific proof that '64-'79 was the greatest period in music, bookended by the start of the Beatles and the end of Zeppelin.

[@jamieking158]

Awesome ranking Larry!, I admire your dedication 👍. Also I checked out a few of the songs that I wasn't familiar with. I really enjoyed Snow in June by the Northern Pikes 👍xxx.

[@canadianstudmuffin]

Cool, thanks!

[@janetsampson1779]

As you would expect from me Larry almost all of my top 100 songs would be Beatles songs but still we differ a bit,for example I would have Penny Lane ahead of Strawberry Fields Forever,Nowhere Man ahead I Want You(She's So Heavy),I Feel Fine ahead of A Hard Day's Night and Another Day by Paul McCartney ahead of Back Seat of My Car but that's the beauty of music,we all like great music differently,as Phil McCracken would say "rock on"! Bob

[@GlenKellawayfromthebasement]

Larry..this was a big undertaking..I might do my top 50..There are 30 songs on your list that I like..Only two would make my top 50 but the other 28 could make my top 100..great job, I won’t even make a smart assed comment❤👍glen

[@lucioaguilariv9910]

Your top 6 are very similar to my top 10. Superb taste!

[@TheAlbumReviewchannel]

Great effort Larry -above and beyond

[@AnthonyKiyola]

Good job. I only know about half the songs. Great top 10 - my number 1 from your top 10 would be Strawberry Fields Forever. My five favourite songs from your whole list in order would be 1 Whole Lotta Rosie 2 Sabbath Bloody Sabbath 3 Into the Void 4 Rock n Roll 5 Are You Experienced

[@lucioaguilariv9910]

If you put Sketches of Winkle in the top 70, I can tell Ween will continue to be one of your favorites. Excellent list, Larry!

[@maryannlockwood7806]

Great ranking. 😊

[@canadianstudmuffin]

Thanks! :)

[@qdahdrummer]

This list really made me realize that closing tracks might just be superior haha

[@benjaminandrews8148]

Definitely a great list Larry it’s honestly hard to come up with a great list but I definitely do have. Top 100 as well but there’s so many great songs it’s definitely hard to make a great list

[@terrymann1341]

A truly great top 100 that I cannot fault, there are some songs and albums in there that I must dig out of my own collection and listen to as they have not been played in a long time. Now here's an idea for another ranking video of closing tracks on albums, as they are just as important as the opening track when bands and artists come to the point in an albums creation of selecting the running order before it goes to press. One album for me that has both is Revolver. It kicks off with Taxman and closes with Tomorrow Never Knows....

[@carl_anderson9315]

A Day In The Life is (for me) without a single doubt the greatest and most important song from the 60s. It is simply the crowning achievement of the band who was not only the most popular and influential, but whose evolution and innovation were unparalleled at that time. EPIC is a word misused nowadays but A Day In The Life managed to put Lennon and McCartney to share and introduce groundbreaking ideas like they never did before. Phil Collins explained that Sgt. Pepper was the album that made all the rest bands ask "wait, you can do that?". Quick anecdote: I heard ADITL in 1994 when I was a teenager. The radio DJ did'nt say a word. My first thought was "Wow that new song is incredible!, who the hell are this new guys?" Immediatelly, the DJ said "from 1967, this was A Day In The Life by The Beatles, stay tuned and we'll be right back after this commercial" .

[@sharkmedia5969]

Can't believe there is another Star Collector fan out there!

[@Isa-m2y4u]

Lots of good stuff you listed..Great pick Atomic Rooster/off the top of my head some of my favorite 100..not ranked Al Green/Belle Rolling Stones/Jumping' Jack Flash Marcy Playground/Sex And Candy Nick Drake/One of these things first Genesis/Entangled Little Richard/I don't know what you got but it's got me Elvis Costello/Alison Little Steven& the Disciples of Soul/Princess of Little Italy

[@beatleytonesbeatleschannel]

Well we agree on the number 1 song of all time but I have no idea of the 99 for me, so I think this was a big ask to rank all 100 of yours. I know most of these songs but quite a few I havent heard so I will check out your play list. I cant promise I'll get through the whole 10 minutes of Yes meandering through America as it's my favourite S&G song but I'll give it a go. great video Larry.

[@canadianstudmuffin]

Prog rock is the best, Tony! :D

[@RandyforRoyals]

There were quite a few on your list for which I am unfamiliar. I did like seeing Randy Newman leading it off. Great opening and closing track by The Who on Who's Next and well represented. Great number one song.

[@whatthejim]

You have a lot of album openers & closers in your top 100 songs which is quite cool, what’s also cool is the Beatles have your top 3 favourite songs. I will check out your favourite U2 song as I’m not familiar with it.

[@Roscoe-pi1gq]

[@ethan-c093]

great list. i doubt i could even make a list of my top 5 it would be too hard. my favourite song of all time is sabbath bloody sabbath though.

[@joelfrombethlehem]

I'd put Donovan Leitch's Aquarius somewhere in the top 30. The list for the top 40 is excellent, and overall, it's very good. Thanks, Larry!

[@chrisdelisle3954]

Larry, your list is wrong... :) Just kidding. We actually share 8 songs: 1) Are You Experienced? 2) Can't Find My Way Home 3) Hey Jude 4) Strawberry Fields Forever 5) Tomorrow Never Knows 6) Won't Get Fooled Again 7) How Many More Times 8) Ramble Tamble Not sure how you could possibly put them in any kind of order. I salute you.

[@mikerem9997]

What about the Lemonheads? You don't like Pink Floyd?

[@oppothumbs1]

@@mikerem9997 Sure. Lemonheads are great with Shame About Ray, Great Big No, and Outdoor Type. Don't like what I have heard of Pink Floyd, only Money, Comfortably Numb and Wish You Were Here. The Wall album is really bad. Sister Havana by Urge Overkill is a great rocker. Prince - Little Red Corvette, When you Were Mine. Larry mentions The Guess Who and I love "No Time" , also "Laughin."

[@pookiemartinez1745]

top 3 bangers.. i didn't see any Thin Lizzy, Budgie, Sweet. John DuCann was the guitarist for Andromeda and The Attack who played on Death walks behind You. and he played briefly for Thin Lizzy. Earle Mankey whos on early Sparks with his brother James Mankey did go on to form a brilliant band Concrete Blonde. my fave Sparks tune is "Everybody's Stupid". That's for Sure.

Good fun, way more than Ameri-politics Ween always makes me think of Tenacious D. I wonder where Lemmie's poncho is. Is the closing track the artist's favorite? I think it's been said, it points to the next phase of that artists next project.

[@Spo-Dee-O-Dee]

My "favorites" list is not the same as the "greatest" list...elevating music one doesn't like is not easy, but it is the only way to be an honest observer.

The Shaggs/My pal foot foot Al Green/Belle Rolling Stones/Child of the moon Smokey Robinson/Cruisin' Peter Frampton/While my Guitar Gently Weeps..it is hardly ever the case that a cover song is better than the original, but.....in this case,the cover is better.in my opinion
