I was a white kid from a rural area in Michigan and I found "What's Going On" to be one of the truly great songs of that era. I can still listen to it and be transported. It's a slice of audio heaven. That said, I'm sure I can look at the list and pick out songs that make me wonder "What were they thinking when they included
this one?"
Lists like this don't tell you as much about the music as they do about the person making the list. It's just way too subjective.
