100首摇滚经典英文歌曲
流行音乐杂志《滚石》与MTV音乐电视联合评选出了自1963年以来世界最伟大的一百首流行歌曲。“甲壳虫”乐队的经典老歌“Yesterday”（昨日）被传唱三十七年，经久不衰，高居百佳之首。
《滚石》与MTV策划本次评选活动。之所以把评选的时间范围定在1963年至今是因为1963年“甲壳虫”乐队首次登陆美国演出标志着现代流行音乐时代的开始。仅仅选出代表这个时代的100首经典歌曲并非易事，五位《滚石》杂志的编辑和来自MTV的节目制作人、研究人员经过反复斟酌、仔细推敲才最终确定了这100首具有代表性的歌曲。
1-The Beatles-yesterday
披头果然不愧为摇滚音乐史上最受推崇与喜爱的合唱团，在「百大」之中，他们总共有四首歌曲进榜，其中又以1965年十月九日获得连续四周冠军的「Yesterday 」最受欢迎。如果以当年的排行来看，这首歌其实并不是他们的歌曲之中成绩最好的，只能算是第五，但正如前面所说，排行的名次并不真正具有决定性，而且披头的录音只是这首歌曲两千五百个不同版本里面的一种。根据金氏世界纪录的统计，这是有史以来被翻唱次数最多的一首歌。
Yesterday by Beatles
Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away,
Now it looks as though they're here to stay,
Oh I believe in yesterday.
Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be,
There's a shadow hanging over me,
Oh yesterday came suddenly...
Why she had to go I don't know. She wouldn't say.
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday,
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play,
Now I need a place to hide away,
Oh, I believe in yesterday...
2-Rolling Stones-Satisfaction
这首曲子在越战中不知道抚慰了多少离乡在外士兵们的心灵，起码在现代启示录中我们看到的是这样，飞机在头顶盘旋，爆炸在身边响起，但是这些都比不上这一首歌带给人的激情和只属于那个年代的躁动。看见白发的这帮老杆子们在舞台唱高唱I CAN’T GET NO SATISFACTION的时候，我实在相信，他们还没有老，至少心是这样。
satisfaction ------ rolling stones
I can’t get no satisfaction,
I can’t get no satisfaction.
’cause I try and I try and I try and I try.
I can’t get no, I can’t get no.
When I’m drivin’ in my car
And that man comes on the radio
And he’s tellin’ me more and more
About some useless information
Supposed to fire my imagination.
I can’t get no, o h no no no.
Hey hey hey, that’s what I say.
I can’t get no satisfaction,
I can’t get no satisfaction.
’cause I try and I try and I try and I try.
I can’t get no, I can’t get no.
When I’m watchin’ my tv
And that man comes on to tell me
How white my shirts can be.
Well he can’t be a man ’cause he doesn’t smoke The same cigarrettes as me.
I can’t get no, oh no no no.
Hey hey hey, that’s what I say.
I can’t get no satisfaction,
I can’t get no girl with action.
’cause I try and I try and I try and I try.
I can’t get no, I can’t get no.
When I’m ridin’ round the world
And I’m doin’ this and I’m signing that
And I’m tryin’ to make some girl
Who tells me baby better come back later next week ’cause you see I’m on losing streak.
I can’t get no, oh no no no.
Hey hey hey, that’s what I say.
I can’t get no, I can’t get no,
I can’t get no satisfaction,
No satisfaction, no satisfaction, no satisfaction
