holy shit! Garota de ipanema in this selection! girl from Ipanema is not a good song, should be forgotten, this is a song of masturbation of two old man, I often feel the cream is a thousand times better than this shit madein Brazil! I have shame of brazil, here the culture is nothing, the music is a shit like GAROTA DE IPANEMA.
if someone made a hippie movement today and tried to make our generation like the 1960s i will love and support them it would just be beautiful to live life like our grandparents did in the 1960s thumbs of if you support and love for that to happen in 2012 :)
No Byrds, Zombies, Motown, Shirelles "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow"? Donovan, BeeGees? "The Girl From Ipanema"? (Surely you jest) Van Morrison? (Very marginal choice.) CSNY, Doors omissions downright embarrassing. "My Way" is more representative of 50's music, "Be My Baby" at #8?! It is arguably the greatest pop song EVER. Surprised you included Dusty Springfield, the greatest white soul singer ever, (sorry Amy). Even with that notable choice, you didn't experience the 60's.
I think Nico joined the Velvet Underground (with Lou Reed), where she found minor fame among the NY beats. Sunshine of Your Love would have been my Cream choice. But overall, a great effort.
@josh71111 true but when you think of zep they didn't have a massive fan group until the 70's. 69 was actually the year of woodstock, and back then people liked mountain and free which were bands that ended up splitting to go into very popular bands in the 70's
Uh. The Beach Boys are rated over Marvin? Come on get real. Marvin's worst song still sounded way better than anything The Beach Bums ever turned out.
@gotch09 Yeah, you're full of shit. One band had many top songs, Brian Wilson is considered the best American songwriter, not to mention an album that ranks at one or two ALL TIME. Marvin Gay was killer, but come on man.
@gostillerz Uh when you come out in the attack mode, wanting to jump somebodys ass because they dare to have a different opinion than you, don't play the "shocked" card when they take a verbal swing back at you.
@Torkgasmicgirl8 I like a lot of your choices.. which is why I was surprised I never heard of some of these: 25 (probably because I'm not a Van Morrison fan) ,23,21,18,13,12. 19 I have heard before but just don't like it at all.
@tgifa5 ..it's not my upload. They're not my choices! but thanks for the reply. You say you've never heard of quite a few of them and given the numbers...a lot of the ones you mentioned are great songs..and you should maybe check out more on these bands/singers. I'm a hippie at heart and my choices would've been very different!! Everybody would pick a different 25 as there are so many great 60's songs! - Peace!
Any "best of 60s" list that excludes Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, The Temptations and The Supremes is illegitimate. The poster needs to brush up on his or her knowledge of iconic 60s music made by Black musicians. And this person also forgot The Doors. Sheesh! #musichistorianfail
If you make the average of all of the years in which these songs were released, you get 1966.72 – I always thought 1967 was the best year, but the end of 1966 is pretty awesome too. Mind you, the greatest hits of any decade would be expected to average to the midpoint of that decade – e.g. 1965, in this case. The fact that this list tilts so heavily towards the second half of the decade is really telling of the incredible advances in songwriting in this period.
you are both idiots. both led zeppelin and the beatles were revolutionary bands. the reason led zeppelin probably isn't on here is that they were arguably a seventies band. you are allowed to like both you know. idiots.
@TheLocalcat The Beatles played a great role in the 60's, but don't leave the other musical talents out either! : ) . Eric Burden, John Fogerty, Mick Jagger, and many others were just as great as Lennon.
Beatles are really good, but by being fair, they should have max 5-7 songs...
One of the best band ever though.
But, House of the Rising Sun, California Dreamin', Gimme Shelter, Sound of Silence, Satisfaction, Somebody to love, White Rabbit, Baba O'Riley and Paint it Black are one of the greatest songs ever.
I agree. Just because they changed the face of Rock & Roll forever doesn't mean squat. And don't forget all those lousy bands that were influenced by them like The Stones, The Who, The Hollies. They must of been out of their minds. And can you believe Country, Soul, and R&B groups were copying their songs? I think Frank Sinatra even recorded a song. DISGRACEFUL. What were they thinking? Hard to believe a talentless bubblegum pop group, loved by millions, could make that big of an impact.
this is a very eclectic list, but delightful for all that. thank you so very much. a nico song? a pentangle song? you are indeed a curious jewel....thank you sooo much.
I think there should have been at least one Doors tune, but the fact that you included 'Alone Again Or' by Love and 'Light Flight' by Pentagle makes me love this list.
