Music’s back on Nine Radio bigtime with countdown of the 500 greatest songs of all time.
The show starts Feb 1 on Magic 1278, 4BH, 2UE and 6GT DAB+.
Hosted by Stevie Jacobs, this week-long celebration will be a feast of non-stop appointment listening for music lovers right across the country.
With listeners invited to vote for their favourite tracks, the music marathon will undoubtedly ignite fierce debate as to which classic tracks should make the final cut.
Breakfast host Stevie Jacobs said, “What makes a great song? Is it the melody, chart position or the record sales? Or is it the energy, lyrics and passion? Nothing spurs a more heated discussion than the question of what are the best ever songs. We can’t wait to unveil this year’s countdown of the 500 greatest songs of all time, with our listeners ultimately determining the playlist.”
Rolling Stone magazine published its list of the 500 greatest songs of all time in 2004, with Bob Dylan taking out the top spot with his timeless rock classic, Like A Rolling Stone.
In 2003, The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age published their list of the 100 best songs of all time and determined that (Sittin’ On) The Dock Of The Bay by Otis Redding was worthy of the No. 1 position.
What will be the No. 1 song in 2021?
