Big Bang, INFINITE, SHINee, TVXQ, Seo Taiji and Boys
Rolling Stone has just published their list of the '50 Greatest Boy Band Songs of All Time', and the songs on the list aren't just American and British hits over the decades. The list has a total of five K-pop songs!


Coming in at the number 12 is SHINee's 2012 hit "Sherlock"! It's the highest ranked K-pop song on the list and for good reason, as it's a unique 'hybrid' song.


Number 22 is Big Bang's 2012 hit "Fantastic Baby" and next at number 31 is TVXQ's 2008 hit "Mirotic". Following close behind at number 36 is an oldie but goodie, Seo Taiji and Boys' 1992 classic "I Know" and last but not least at number 42 is INFINITE's 2012 hit "The Chaser"!


Rolling Stone seems to know their K-pop, as they chose songs from some of the top boy groups in Korea. We're also very pleasantly surprised that a '90s K-Pop hit was added to the list too!
