2.  Your Body is a Wonderland--John Mayer  
Least sexy song about sex EVER.  1

3.  Always Something There to Remind Me--Naked Eyes
Bacharach = cool.  I think the synths could have been handled better though.  3.5

5.  Girl all the Bad Guys Want--Bowling For Soup
Catchy enough.  I like the video.  But nothing really special.  2.5

6.  I Want to Hold Your Hand--The Beatles
They've done better (understatement).  I prefer "I Saw Her Standing There.  3

7.  Mother--The Police
This is why Andy Summers shouldn't be allowed to write songs.  0

8.  Cars--Gary Numan
I never got this song.  2

9.  Never Tear Us Apart--INXS
Love it love it love it.  Great sax solo.  5

10.  Unwell--Matchbox Twenty
I used to dislike Matchbox Twenty, but their singles just keep improving.  4

11.  Like a Rolling Stone--Bob Dylan
A true classic; perhaps a little bit too long though.  4.5

12.  Seperate Ways (Worlds Apart)--Journey
Incredible, in its uninhibited cheesiness.  I can't tell whether I love it or hate it, so I give it a 3.

13.  Hungry Heart--Bruce Springsteen
The song is really catchy, but it hides the fact that it has some of the best lyrics Springsteen has ever written.  5

14.  Tears in Heaven--Eric Clapton
Never did a thing for me.  Not a thing.  I mean, I'm sorry for Clapton and his poor son, but the song has never done a thing for me.  2

15.  Don't Know Why--Norah Jones
It has an aura about it.  It's luminous.  4

16.  Kind and Generous--Natelie Merchant
Has a great hook, yet annoyingly bland and tepid.  Simultaneously the best and the worst of the Lilith Fair sound.  2

17.  Picture--Kid Rock feat. Sheryl Crow
I liked it at first.  It's starting to get annoying.  3.5

19.  Fast Car--Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman's vocal mannerisms annoy me, but I can't deny that this has some very affecting lyrics.  4

20.  In the Air Tonight--Phil Collins
That one drum solo alone redeems Phil Collins' entire career.  4

21.  Kiss From a Rose--Seal
Seal.  Not my thing.  2

2.  Your Body is a Wonderland--John Mayer 2. Overplayed and has put me to sleep.
3.  Always Something There to Remind Me--Naked Eyes 3.5
5.  Girl all the Bad Guys Want--Bowling For Soup 3.5 - I actually like it, but there were some parts where the lyrics could've been better...What do the lines "I wanna be sedated" and "All I wanted was to see her naked" have to do with each other other than the fact that they rhyme?
6.  I Want to Hold Your Hand--The Beatles 3.5 - Not my favorite Beatles song, but still great.
7.  Mother--The Police Negative 100. Baaaad.
8.  Cars--Gary Numan 4
9.  Never Tear Us Apart--INXS 3
10.  Unwell--Matchbox Twenty 4
11.  Like a Rolling Stone--Bob Dylan 4.9 :P
12.  Seperate Ways (Worlds Apart)--Journey 3.5
14.  Tears in Heaven--Eric Clapton 4
15.  Don't Know Why--Norah Jones 4.5 - addicting, yet has the potential to put you to sleep.
17.  Picture--Kid Rock feat. Sheryl Crow 3.5 - Me like, but lyrics could've been written better.
18.  Rock Your Body--Justin Timerlake 1.5 - once he actually starts to sing, the radio goes off. The beat isn't bad though.
19.  Fast Car--Tracy Chapman 5 - great!
20.  In the Air Tonight--Phil Collins 2 - boring, but 'tis a classic.
21.  Kiss From a Rose--Seal 4

On a scale of 1 to 5 which it looks like most of the posters are doing I'll rate the ones I remember.
Goodbye Stranger - Supertramp 3
I Want To Hold Your Hand - The Beatles 2
Cars - Gary Neuman - 5 See!?! it just depends on what you happen to like. Not what's really good.
Like A Rolling Stone - Bob Dylan 1 Again I'm going to get castigated but I hate Bob Dylan.
Seperate Ways - Journey 2 Most of Journey's stuff after Steve Perry joined the band was a pop sell-out. Yeah, maybe they made more money but they lost their true progressive rock sound.
Hungry Heart - Bruce Springsteen 3 I've never really liked Springsteen.
Tears In Heaven - Eric Clapton 3
Fast Car - Tracy Chapman 4 The first time I heard that song it was a live performance with just her and her guitar. I was really impressed.
In The Air Tonight - Phil Collins 4 A good song, but another one that got played way too much.
Kiss From A Rose - Seal 4
