Qfm96 Memorial Day 500 (2025)

The all-time countdown (May 2025) from Qfm96 in Columbus, OH ranks 498 songs, with “Bohemian Rhapsody” by Queen at number one. The list features 154 different artists; Led Zeppelin has the most entries with 19 songs. Transcribed from the station's numbered "Title- Artist" list. Listeners registered their top 10 picks before the countdown (https://qfm96.com/2025/05/09/qfm96-memorial-day-500-2025-voting/). Ranks 341 ("Gree Grass and High Tides") and 415 ("Every Rose Has It's Thorn") have no artist in the source and are left out of this file; no other position is missing. Abbreviated artist names were expanded (BTO to Bachman-Turner Overdrive, CCR to Creedence Clearwater Revival, CSNY to Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, OZZY to Ozzy Osbourne, RHCP to Red Hot Chili Peppers). Artist spellings corrected (Greg Allman to Gregg Allman, Headeast to Head East). "Can't You See" by Marshall Tucker Band appears twice in the source (ranks 145 and 436); both entries are kept as printed. Artist credits normalized to the site's format (e.g. "X (ft. Y)" written "X feat. Y").

Transcribed from the station's numbered "Title- Artist" list. Listeners registered their top 10 picks before the countdown (https://qfm96.com/2025/05/09/qfm96-memorial-day-500-2025-voting/). Ranks 341 ("Gree Grass and High Tides") and 415 ("Every Rose Has It's Thorn") have no artist in the source and are left out of this file; no other position is missing. Abbreviated artist names were expanded (BTO to Bachman-Turner Overdrive, CCR to Creedence Clearwater Revival, CSNY to Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, OZZY to Ozzy Osbourne, RHCP to Red Hot Chili Peppers). Artist spellings corrected (Greg Allman to Gregg Allman, Headeast to Head East). "Can't You See" by Marshall Tucker Band appears twice in the source (ranks 145 and 436); both entries are kept as printed. Artist credits normalized to the site's format (e.g. "X (ft. Y)" written "X feat. Y").
