Since when did profit determine quality? If you did that the list would be populated by the backstreet boys and spice girls type songs.
What most of the songs in there top ten have in common are they were songs that opened the door for later bands with similar sounds. Songs that broke new ground,as it were. Older song by virtue of having lasted proved themselves and are going to make 'greatest ever' lists more than new stuff. While my list would be different but I will say that I wasn't born when most of the top ten were released but I still know the words to most,if not all of them so they must have done something right.
