Topic: Most Popular Songs?
I clicked on the "Resources" tab and they had link to "Top 100 Songs" which I assumed were the 100 most popular songs on Chordie (perhaps based on those songs which most frequently appear in member songbooks).
Boy was I surprised by what I saw. The top ten were:
Man Of Sorrows - Bruce Dickinson
Lucky Day - Tom Waits
Caroline No - Beach Boys
Two Teardrops - Steve Wariner
Blue Colllar Man - Travis Tritt
Come Il Sole All'improviso - Zucchero
Shuffle It All - Izzy Stradlin
Slow Poke - Pee Wee King
Televators Chords - Mars Volta
Through The Fire - Nina
A Bob Dylan song doesn't appear until no. 97 and then it's an obscure 1988 release called, "Death is Not the End." This is really odd, because from my experience, "Blowing in the Wind" is the Dylan song that appears most frequently in public songbooks. Additionally, the only Pink Floyd song is "Wot's...Uh The Deal" from 1972, and I know that "Wish You Were Here" is much more popular and well known.
Can anyone explain how the top 100 is compiled?
