Digital Dream Door is one of the best sites out there for best-of music lists. Lists cover different eras, genres, and themes. The temptation was to simply duplicate their “1000 Greatest Popular Songs of All Time” list here, but that didn’t seem the best option because there are so many other song lists on the site that it seemed imperative to integrate them in as well.
Therefore this list is created by aggregating the more than 40 lists indicated at the bottom of this page. However, to still give the original 500 songs list appropriate impact, it was then averaged with the overall ranking of the aggregate. Here are the end results:
