Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest songs ever, and would you believe that the top two songs both share the same name as the mag? Surprise, surprise. Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone" tops the list, followed by the Rolling Stones' "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction." Related story, sans irony, via Reuters/CNN.

Can this be serious? Or is this just another hoax, like that R. Kelly story from earlier in the week?
