Social media loves a good list, and the latest debate is over the ranking of the top 100 singers of all time. Ironically, the uproar is over a list made by Rolling Stone over a decade ago!

The legendary music publication’s Top 100 Singers of All-Time list from 2010 recently resurfaced on Twitter – engulfing music lovers in heated debates over the standings of their faves. The biggest gripe over the old rankings seems to surround Elvis Presley’s #3 spot and Whitney Houston’s #34 spot.
