It will be interesting to see which of the 171 songs that have been on every #DVEMemorialDay500 since it returned in 2019 will be left off this year's listener-driven list. Which of those songs do listeners rank lower than "Life During Wartime"?

Bob Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone" has been gaining significantly each year since 2022 — going from 324 to 288 to 149 to now 89 #DVEMemorialDay500

Allman Brothers having their best year yet — songs averaging a 195 rank (best had been 2023's 226.5 avg) And we still haven't heard Ramblin' Man or Melissa. #DVEMemorialDay500 #DVEMemorialDay500

Well, that's more than a slight return for "Voodoo Child" at 83. It's only previous appearance was in 2021 at No. 439. #DVEMemorialDay500

I do think this #DVEMemorialDay500 ranking has a very Gen X feel to it. A definite sea change of how "classic rock" is defined.
