A national rock radio station in Australia recently let listeners vote for what they thought were the greatest 100 Oz songs of all time. Number one turned out to be INXS 'Never Tear Us Apart'. Maybe no surprise that something like that would come out trumps, but what gets me is that there are none of the great 60s bands or singers in the list, not even The Easybeats. Also next to none of the great 70s or 80s bands. See the full list here:

This inspired me to make my own 100 list, just for fun. Don't take it too seriously. The number order means nothing and lots of missing songs are equally worthy. The only rule I set myself was a limit of two songs per artiste.
Here it is:
