There are a number of songs on that list for which I was thinking the same thing... Billy Ray Cyrus...?

Also a number of songs that I realized were hits basically because the band sounded very much like another - e.g. Sex and Candy - Marcy Playground - I thought for years that this was a RHCP tune.

Wasn't there a big controversy about Bittersweet Symphony? They sampled too much of a melody from the Rolling Stones osmethin.

For most of those songs, you just gave me a flashback to middle school and high school. Not sure if I want to smack you or give you a pat on the back.

Several of those artists had multiple top 10 hits.

I guess VH1 is staffed by full retards.
