'What are the 50 greatest Rock n Roll songs of all time?
GN'R Fan!
We have that thing at school where we should do a research about the 50 greatest rock n roll songs. I listen to every kind of rock n roll since i was 10, but when it came to doing this research, all songs seem to disappear. The songs should be from the era of 1960-1993.
I already came up with 20 but I need more. The songs should be the anthem of the band.
