Readers’ Rock List: Hot Songs

4/28/08, 4:56 pm EST

Last week, as a tribute to our Rock Daily colleagues baking in the ninety-plus-degree Indio heat to bring back Coachella reportage, we asked our air-conditioned readers to pick their favorite “hot” songs. The readers have spoken, we’ve battled through our third-degree sunburns to compile the votes and you’ve selected Jimi Hendrix’s “Fire” as the most thermometer-bursting song. Check out the full list below.

1. Jimi Hendrix Experience — “Fire”
2. Johnny Cash — “Ring of Fire”
3. Sly & the Family Stone — “Hot Fun in the Summertime”
4. Bruce Springsteen — “I’m On Fire”
5. The Clash — “London’s Burning”
6. AC/DC — “Hell’s Bells”
7. The Beatles — “Here Comes the Sun”
8. Talking Heads — “Burning Down the House”
9. Jerry Lee Lewis — “Great Balls of Fire”
10. KISS — “Hotter Than Hell”
