Q magazine has revealed what songwriters (or at least the ones it quizzed) believe are the greatest tracks ever recorded. Fifty took part in the vote, including John Legend and Manic Street Preachers' vocalist James Dean Bradfield, and they voted for the inclusion of Lou Reed's 'Perfect Day', Springsteen's 'Born to Run' and Jeff Buckley's cover of 'Hallelujah', amongst others. Speaking of the Bruce Springsteen hit on the list, 'Born To Run', MSP JDB said: "It makes me feel like I'm being dragged away by this euphoric moment that could any moment tip into being corny, but doesn't". So there you go. The full list of 'greatest tracks ever' is below:
The Verve - Bitter Sweet Symphony
Bob Dylan - Blowin' In The Wind
Bruce Springsteen - Born To Run
The Beach Boys - God Only Knows
Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah
David Bowie - Life On Mars
Lou Reed - Perfect Day
Billie Holiday - Strange Fruit
Beatles - Strawberry Fields Forever
