For as long as I can remember, the week between Christmas and New Year's means our radio is on for the Radio 2 Top 2000. The best 2000 songs of all time as voted by listeners are played in one week, leading up to the winner just before midnight December 31st. It's the list that years ago introduced me to a wealth of classic rock and Dutch music history. Now, it's mostly a list of music I love.

It's a cultural phenomenon here: 4,5 million people voted this year (out of a population of 16 million) on their best songs of all time. It's a list full of classic rock, nostalgic Dutch songs and one-offs. You see the list here; they're currently at #1281.

I voted for these (future) classics. What would you have voted? What are the best songs of all time?
