Default 99 Greatest Songs Ever

Call it ambitous, audacious, even arrogant—but with your help, Performing Songwriter aims to name the 99 greatest songs ever! We invite you to share your choices with us as we attempt to compile a definitive list to run in our 99th issue, on sale in January.
Perhaps you agree with Elton John that sad songs say so much. Or with Paul McCartney, who’d rather fill the world with silly love songs. Whatever your preference, start looking through your record collection and your iPod playlists, pick your brains and send us your picks. Vote for as many songs as you like, as many times as you like. Don’t forget to tell us why they’re your favorites in the comments box below. But remember voting ends at noon on December 15.

Enjoy!

—The Editors at Performing Songwriter

Any song, any artist. I've got to vote for Dry County.

I voted Dry County aswell, not cause it's my fave song, but I just want more people to know about it and hear it. I doubt that's very likely it will enter the 99 best songs but it's worth a shot.

I went for Dry County aswell, it is my favourite song, and also I agree it would be a good one for people to hear more.
