What Generation Z likes in 1960-1980 rock/pop music

In a very professional music survey that only relies on songs I like, about 100 undergraduates at the University of Michigan voted on their favorite tunes that were played at the opening of each class in Earth Interactions (E119).  The class started with "We Will Rock You" (which we did) and ended with "Hello, Goodbye".  Voting on 39 songs was in 3 thematic sets; no crossover options. You may notice that all songs have an Earth theme (though requiring a little thinking for some, like Ben Folds). 

Clearly, there is a lot of Queen love in Fall 2018, while much less for icons like REM, Springsteen and Stones. The full list of songs and their scores (1 vote per set of 13 songs):
