When was the 20th century? (was: Song of the Century)

What was the greatest song of last century?

Bohemian Rapsody by Queen gets my vote!

which century? cause i am pretty sure that queen made that song in the 20th century and we are in the 21st or somthing like that

im pretty sure i stated LAST century, which would be the 20th century…

But it depends on how you look at it. This very century could be the LAST century, if we’re all destoryed before the century is up.

But that hasn’t happened, yet so we can’t officially say that until it does happen. :wink:

Oh come on, everyone already knows the planet will be dead by the end of this century. You don’t see people asking was the best song of the NEXT century is do you? Exactly, because it will never exisit. So thus, this is the LAST century.

Probably…but it hasn’t happened yet, so it isn’t the last century…

Uh… anyway… how about this. January 1, 1900 A.D. -> December, 31 1999 A.D.

There.

:rolleyes:

I wouldn’t be able to choose just one song…

That century ended on December 31, 2000.

The 21st century started on Januart 1, 2001.

Brandon - you’re slippin. Get your facts straight. :smiley: :rolleyes:

I never said I was specifying the 20th century. I was just picking two arbitrary dates, to cover the 1900’s. :smiley:

But… as i said earlier … ‘anyway’…

Both Bohemian Rapsody and Smells like Teen Spirit would get my vote for their musical influence and cuz’ they’re just really good.

But if you were to say musician i would have to go with Hendrix.

George Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue or Louis Armstrong’s What A Wonderful World.

I’d have to go with Brandon in that I couldn’t really name just one as “best song of the century,” but two songs that come to mind are Black Magic Woman, by Santana, and Sympathy for the Devil, by The Rolling Stones.

<edit>I am a stupid, stupid, stupid person.</edit>

My vote goes to I hope you dance by Lee Ann Womack.

I would have voted for a wierd al or queen, but I just got done listening to our camerata (select chours) sing this while they practiced for the seniors graduation.

Jim, I think you mean Sympathy for the Devil :wink:

…still a good song by any other name, though. Unless they called it Horace. Then, maybe, it’d have been a little less good.

in my oppinion it would have to be Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd. Just an all and all great song.

That one along with just about every other Pink Floyd song out there.

Eric

I will say “anything by the Beatles”

GAH

I can’t believe I made that mistake. I am very embarrassed, right now. “Symphony”?

Oh well, at least I’m consistently misspelling crucial words… (sorry Kristina)
