At the risk of sounding incredibly nosy, which song?

I really don't think that my oppinion will change no matter how good the singer is. It's not like I have something against Judy Garland, or anyone else who has sung it over the years, I just really don't like the song itself. :\

The only song I was really disappointed about not being included was Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" from Wayne's World.
Disputable positioning:
4. Moon River, Breakfast at Tiffany's, 1961.
8. The Way We Were, The Way We Were, 1973.
11. The Man That Got Away, A Star Is Born, 1954.
13. People, Funny Girl, 1968.
14. My Heart Will Go On, Titanic, 1997.
16. Evergreen (Love Theme From 'A Star Is Born'), A Star Is Born, 1976.
22. Everybody's Talkin', Midnight Cowboy, 1969.
30. Stormy Weather, Stormy Weather, 1943.
39. Days of Wine and Roses, Days of Wine and Roses, 1963.
40. Fight the Power, Do the Right Thing, 1989.
44. Wind Beneath My Wings, Beaches, 1988.
46. Don't Rain on My Parade, Funny Girl, 1968.
49. Make 'Em Laugh, Singin' in the Rain, 1952.
57. The Windmills of Your Mind, The Thomas Crown Affair, 1968.

77. The Shadow of Your Smile, The Sandpiper, 1965.

90. Seems Like Old Times, Annie Hall, 1977.
91. Let the River Run, Working Girl, 1988.

93. Lose Yourself, 8 Mile, 2002.
95. (We're Off on the) Road to Morocco, Road to Morocco, 1942.
I think that all of these are too high except for "Gonna Fly Now" which should be higher. Some don't even belong on the list.
"Lose Yourself" come on.
As much as I love "Fight the Power" to put it up at #40 is crazy
And there's way too much Barbara up there.

No Rocky Horror Picture Show? Okay, that's inexcusable.
But otherwise that list's okay with me. Nothing too heinous except for "Wind Beneath My Wings," "My Heart Will Go On," and "Beauty and the Beast," and you kinda knew those ones were going to show up, anyway.
But no Rocky Horror? What's this world coming to? "The Time Warp"? "Sweet Transvestite"? "Damnit, Janet"? Sheesh.

It may be too new, but Avenue Q has got some great songs as well. "It sucks to be me" you can't get much cooler songs than that.

Agreed.
I can forgive the lack of a South Park song, but not RHPS.

Only 51 for Fame?!?!?! Sheesh, what are they smoking? 8 Mile, but only one song from Grease? They could at least replace it with the theme song from Love At First Bite

Theme from Shaft only #38? I'd rather hear that song 38 times in a row than any of those other songs once.
