What is the most influential song of all time?
In regard to shaping/reshaping the music industry.
I'd have to say Hotel California, One by U2, and Smells Like Teen Spirit.

Agree on Hotel California and Teen Spirit, I'd add Rolling Stones "Satisfaction"

it's more the way the song was recieved at the time, than the song itself.

The older I get the more I think the Beatles were opportunists

Maybe, but they did things with chord progressions that were simply not done in

The magic chords.

I don't see how it could be anything but Smells Like Teen Spirit

Many songs were more influential than Smells Like Teen Spirit - it definitely

We're only talking about a song. One single song.
