Rock's already at least 45 year old, so maybe it should be listed in a historical context:

Mystery Train - Elvis
Paperback Writer - Beatles
Satisfaction - Rolling Stones
All Along The Watchtower - Hendrix
Black Dog - Led Zeppelin
Radio, Radio - Elvis Costello
Anarchy In The UK - Sex Pistols
It's The End Of The World As We Know It - R E M
Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana
Welcome To The Jungle - Guns 'N' Roses

Please ask this again and expand to the best 25 songs.....too many years to cover and too few tunes to spread around...rock on!
