VH1 Lists

For some reason, I love to watch the "100 Greatest" shows on VH1. A couple of weeks ago it was the 100 Greatest Hip-Hop songs and last night was the greatest heavy rock songs. I guess I'm a sucker for pretty much any countdown that doesn't include Carson Daly. Some of the songs are better than others and I don't always agree with the selections, but I still enjoy watching. It always reminds me of songs I've been meaning to buy. The other things that are interesting are the factoids. Where else are you going to find out that Lita Ford and Joan Jett both got their start in the Runaways? That is music knowledge you can use. Aside from the trivia, I also like the interviews. You have Ice-T talking about how cool Public Enemy is, or Slash discussing why Queen rocks. It's just interesting and sometimes they give you some good comments like Ted Nugent who was talking about how people love to go to his concerts and roast marshmallows on the flames that shoot out of his arse. Rock on Ted.
