i agree...

Okay, this is seriously the worst countdown ever.
This is one of the best Paul Simon songs.
FAIL.

honestly, you people don't know what the hell you're talking about. i'd like to see you try some of the creation these people live.

I love it...each time I click the "Next" button I am ever more shocked and insenced at how absolutely stupid this guy is. First of all, there are scores of songs from paul simon that belong on this list...but this is FAR from one of them. Secondly, NO ONE falls into his use of "we." Who is we, buddy? Not anyone I know would like to be part of your universal "we"

I agree. I keep thinking I will only be equally horrified by the next choice, but each pick is more and more wrong. I don't understand the criteria this reviewer is using. Maybe it's opposite day?
heythereat 5-18-2008
I have loved that song since I was like 4 years old (in the 80's when I heard it). That song is fun as anything and creative. Stop the madness, lol.

Whoever came up with this list should not be allowed to write articles about music ever again!
sukiyaki113at 6-01-2008
Who made this list? This is ridiculous. '50 Ways' is a great song.
FAIL.

WHAT!!!!! THE HELL YOU SAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! Only one of THE COOLEST examples of creative drumming EVER!!!!!!!!!! Steve Gadd friggan NAILS that feel like it's never been done before, OR SINCE for that matter. This "writer" is a pathetic loon.
chazzie100at 10-22-2008
Absolutely hairballs...the ORIGINAL beat which he came up with for that song, is one of the genius rhythms ever done (a beat based off of marching band rudiments applied to the drum set)...look at all the guys that try to learn it..so much that Steve included how to play it in his first video.
scenefromaboveat 6-30-2009
Definitely ... the drums alone make this one of the best and most memorable songs EVER ... a bad song ? ... are you high ?
Just slip out the back jack , make a new plan stan , dont need to be coy roy , just get yourself free ...... so awesome ...whoever wrote this list should be fired .
iamthentertainerat 7-26-2008
Who the hell wrote this countdown?
Edmoat 7-28-2008
Seriously man. WTF??????????? WTF???????????????
Over.
tim4safeat 8-03-2008
Music and poetry clearly escape you.
jadedsilver03at 8-05-2008
I ADORE this song! WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU?! I love the overall feel of the song...just because it's not your typical rhyme scheme, does NOT make it a bad song.
