hello all list-makers. i do love lists, hence my joining this community, but i just want to make i am following the rules, traditions, general drift, of the community. having look around a but, i notice that most of the lists are about songs, which is cool, i have many song lists i could post, but is the community just based on songs, or are any kind of top 5 lists also allowed? you know:
-Top Five Movies to Watch On LSD while you're house-sitting for your friends..
-Top Five LEGAL ways you can screw with your boss and not get caught..
-Top Five ways to annoy your cat when he/she is trying to sleep (p.s. nothing painful, just annoying).
-Top Five ways to mess with an obnoxiously superior-acting environmentalist.
and other such lists...
so, are all top five lists allowed, or just music? if it's just music, that's cool, i can certainly participate, if that's ok.
Thanks! Just asking, i wanted to make sure i wasn't stepping on anyone's toes.

This isn't a list of most hated songs or anything, it's a list of those I feel are most overrated. They may or may not be good songs, but I feel they are just overrated. Feel free to post your own list! :D
1. I Will Always Love You (any and every version of this song is overrated in my book)
2. Lynard Skynard - Sweet Home Alabama
3. Ricky Martin - Livin' La Vida Loca (and I just have to mention that I kept trying to type "Martin" and wound up typing "Martian" over and over again, hahaha. XD)
4. T. Rex - Bang A Gong (I mean, c'mon. They've done so many much better songs that never get any recognition! It's sad!)
5. Maroon 5 - This Love
Oh yes, and I would probably have newer songs on this list if I really listened to much new stuff anymore. I've discovered from experience that if the public jizzes their pants over a new band, I'm probably not going to like the band very much if at all.

1. Turkish pizza with chilli and lemon
2. Packet of Superkings
3. Long neck of beer
4. New belt (its cool!)

Pretty happy with myself.

3) "Long Snake Moan" by PJ Harvey (angry!)
4) "Stagger Lee" by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds (dark as hell!)

Since I made a negative top 5 just now, I feel I have to compensate that a bit, so here is a list of 5 of my favorite songs from the first Live Aid-concerts in 1985:
1. U2 - Bad
2. U2 - Sunday Bloody Sunday
3. Simple Minds - Ghostdancing
4. Queen - Radio Ga Ga
5. David Bowie - Heroes

I just have to get this off my chest, and since this is a top 5 community I thought I could make a top 5 of the worst songs ever. At least in my opinion.
Of course, it is all subjective, and I know that these songs probably are someone elses favorite, so forgive me if I step on someone's toes...It is not personal ;)
The "I'd rather rip my pubic hair out with tweezers than listen to these songs" Top 5:
1. Celine Dion - My Heart Will Go On
2. Whitney Houston - I Will Always Love You
3. James Blunt - You're Beautiful
4. Michael Jackson - Black or White
5. Mariah Carey - Emotion
There...I feel much better now...lol...
