I'm just going through the list right now, doesn't seem to be a good one. #100 Love The Way You Lie behind Puke (#98). I'm curious how it ends ...

Puke > LTWYL

[Master Chief]

No Encore song should be listed except for Yellow Brick Road, Like Toy Soldiers & maybe Spend Some Time.

Puke is another embarassing song in Eminem's catalogue and giving it some kind of award only damages Eminem's legacy a little bit more.

[Master Chief]

He sounds like a whiny, annoying little bitch and the rhyming is horrendous. Plus, the hook is awful and embarassing. The intro does not help either.

5th worst song on Encore.

How did LTWYL make the list?

[Sla]

Okay, the list ended how every Em fan would expect. Still too much Relapse, too less Recovery.

How did LTWYL make the list?

In a lot of countdowns, they always make the first song in the countdown something that will seem a bit of a "shock" to the reader. Casual Eminem fans might think it's one of his very best songs, so will be "shocked" to see it *only* at #100.

LTWYL probably wouldn't have even made their top 100, but putting it at #100 will make people more likely to view the rest of the countdown than if their #100 was some album track or leak unknown to most of the general population.

Really a shame seeing songs like Puke, G.O.A.T., My Band, On Fire, Hailie's Song, Elevator listed, but not Talkin' 2 Myself or Going Through Changes. Wtf. But they were decent enough to put Not Afraid at least on #38, wow.

[Sukot]

Gosh. It's just somebody's opinion. If any poster on this forum listed their top 100, I bet they'd get everyone saying "WTF?" too.

Also, My Band is awesome.

I though Hailies song was pretty nice, and i'm sure if they listed elevator it was because of the hook rather than actual song.

[Elikirk]

WTF? how is sing for the moment after run rabbit run???

[Elikirk]

lol deja vu is like 20 places ahead of toy soldier, this is BS

[Elikirk]

"Awesome" isn't the right word. I'm not saying it's completely bullshit, but it's a really insignificant song. That was probably the beginning of Em's fall, his first shitty opening track. After that one he opened his next album (solo this time) with Just Lose It, which was on the same level. Those 2 songs are nothing compared to My Name Is, The Real Slim Shady and Without Me. Those were high quality fun tracks.
