Modern rock magazine Rolling Stone has gone back to the stone age to find its favourite song of all time.
It has gone back forty years to dig up Bob Dylan's work of art Like A Rolling Stone for its definitive poll of top songs.
Surprisingly keeping with the same ancient theme Rolling Stone Magazine picked The Rolling Stones hit (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction, which was released in the same year, in second place, and John Lennon's Imagine for third.
The magazine could just not help rolling back the years in search of the best 500 songs.
They could only find one song in the past three decades worthy enough to be in the top ten. That was Nirvana's 1991 grunge classic Smells Like Teen Spirit, which came in at number 9.
Only three songs from this millennium were chosen: Eminem's Lose Yourself and Stan along with last year's big hit, OutKast's Hey Ya with the 1960s hogging most of the plaudits.
The celebrity panel included Joni Mitchell, TV chat show host David Letterman, band leader Paul Shaffer and critic David Hinckley.
The top 20 songs were:
1Like A Rolling Stone Bob Dylan
2(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction The Rolling Stones
