Actually, the Digital Dream Door lists are far and away from what they should be.  I got the drum performances list and there are a lot of songs that are better than the ones on the top and they're not even there.

I know, it's horrific in some categories.

Los Lonely Boys much more influential than Santana? You have to be kidding me...

Too little of Andy Ward in your ratings! Listen to Camel: A Live
