[edit] Hottest 100 of all time

In August of 1998 another poll was held which did not limit choices to a particular year. Hence the name "Hottest 100 of all time". It was the fourth poll of its kind (previously held in 1989, 1990 and 1991) and the first in seven years and the first since the introduction of the year-specific format. It is also the last one to be held to date. It was marked with a comical moment when Robbie Buck played the wrong Led Zeppelin song[citation needed].
