McCain vs Obama: Abba vs U2

'Blender' Magazine asked both presidential hopefuls John McCain and Barack Obama to list their top ten all-time favourite songs. Here they are:

JOHN McCAIN:
1. Dancing Queen ABBA2. Blue Bayou Roy Orbison3. Take a Chance On Me ABBA4. If We MakeIt Through December Merle Haggard5. As Time Goes By Dooley Wilson6. Good Vibrations The Beach Boys7. What A Wonderful World Louis Armstrong8. I've Got You Under My Skin Frank Sinatra9. Sweet Caroline Neil Diamond10. Smoke Gets In Your Eyes The Platters

BARACK OBAMA:
1. Ready or Not Fugees2. What's Going On Marvin Gaye3. I'm On Fire Bruce Spingsteen4. Gimme Shelter Rolling Stones5. Sinnerman Nina Simone6. Touch the Sky Kanye West7. You'd Be So Easy to Love Frank Sinatra8. Think Aretha Franklin9. City of Blinding Lights U210. Yes We Can will.i.am

I'm not sure what these lists reveal about these men. But after seeing Barack Obama's number 3 choice, Bruce 'SPINGSTEEN', it does reveal the fact that Blender Magazine doesn't have a proof reader.

No hard feelings. I think people buy Blender Magazine more for the pictures.
