TO answer the thread question
I Saw Her Standing There? by the beatles?
Someone else bought up the beatles.

Care to elaborate?
i saw her standing there was one of the most popular songs that the beatles had brought out.
if not that then yellow submarine or let it be.
the beatles changed rock and roll forever and were the most popular music for a decade and are still extremely popular/
so i would have to say that those songs by the beatles are more popular then symphony #9
but just becuase someone else may have said the beatles doesnt mean that its not my answer and i doubt they put the exact same songs in as me.

I just meant someone had bought them up, not that they weren't a valid answer :)

I'm going to play a nasty trick here, and say technically the question asked for a single song rather than a group of songs. The Beatles were at the forefront of rock and roll yes and changed music with their revolutionary new style... but not through one song. They did so through many songs which earned them their massive popularity.

That's a good choice... I like it! Thriller was very popular and is often noted as the song that changed the way videoclips were done into things that told stories or tried to be unique in some way. But does popularity equal cultural change? That's the question I pose to you. And was it the song itself, or the videoclip or both which inspired so many others? Because if it was mainly the videoclip one might say the song itself wasn't that inspiring just the video that went with it.

I'm curious as to what you think of that proposition.

I challenge you... To a du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-duel!

Okay, that is out of my system.

Hmm. I challenge you to eat 3 big tubs of ice cream in one night. Within 1 hour. No other food or beverages allowed.
Can you do that? Pretty pointless setting a challenge you can't do yourself.

I challenge someone to divide by zero.
I did once, but then the universe imploded and I had to fix it. That took forever, and I'm not doing it again!

I don't think so... that's beyond the human's capacity =0

I'd try that sometimes, just for the sake of it... But I'm sure my blood, heart and other organs in general wouldn't appreciate.

I did manage to eat 1.5 tubs once. The trick is too wait till they are warm and just drink them =D
Lol Yuk! That's funny as though :)

I challenge you to find a rap song that is actually good! Oh, wait, sorry. I just read the 'No impossible challenges' rule. Well then, Find out how cumulonimbus clouds pose threats to aircraft! (Somebody might recognize it from somewhere, a nickel to the man who names that thread.)

I challenge you to pronounce this word without using any technological help.

The English transliteration of a Greek word that occurs in Aristophanes' play The Ecclesiazusae. The word is defined a "a goulash composed of all the leftovers from the meals of the last two weeks", or "has". A more, detailed translation is

Nope, you're sort of close, though.
