Whenever there is a "best of" or "top [whatever number]" list, you will inevitably diagree with them, whether it be the placement of a certain member of the list, or the fact that a person/band/movie or whatever was included in the first place.

Take, for example, VH1's Top 100 Artists of Hard Rock.

First off, can I say this: Bon fucking JOVI? Yes, it is true: they made the list. Sorry...but, um, no. If hard rock was a high school, they would be the pussies that got beat up by real bands, like Alice Cooper and Metallica. Or at least get wedgies.

And the Rolling Stones and the Doors not making the top twenty? (And, in the Stones's case, not even making the top fifty?!)

And I love Def Leppard as much as the next guy, but, uh...they should never be ahead of the two aforementioned groups in any list. Ever. Even if the list was "The Top 100 Bands Named Def Leppard."

Also, is it wrong that I have crushes on Vince Neil and Bret Michaels? And not their 80's versions... them now. When they have gained a little weight and are married with kids.

And while I used to be really scared of him, I now respect Henry Rollins for saying the following:"The Clash is what U2 wishes they could be." Haha, that was awesome.
