I'm sure I'll get called are sorts of names, but I like Toxic. It's catchy. And it's not like Britney wrote the damn song.

That being said, no fucking way is it even in the top 50 of best songs.

[guitarboy5150]

its not even in the top 1000

[rustoffa]

That list is weird.

[Wawazat]

Toxic is complete unknown to me, did i miss out on something ?

Am i just lucky ?

[Soul Reaper]

NME is the ENEMY....

what the fuck do they know?!

[Shaun Ponsonby]

I agree with Reap to an extent, but if you look at the list 7/10 of the tracks can be classified as being performed by rock bands.
