    By: Sophia
    • 10. Outshined by Soundgarden
      This is the ultimate head-banger piece. :nods: Yup, yup.. I also love "Somewhere", "Black Hole Sun", "Jesus Christ Pose", and "Burden in my Hand". Soundgarden is incredible.
    • 9. Karma Police by Radiohead
      I love this song. Everything Radiohead says sounds so wise! I don't know how they do it.
    • 8. Would? by Alice In Chains
      Great melody. Nice guitars. There is nothing quite like a big, roaring guitar.
    • 7. November Rain by Guns N' Roses
      In principle, I'm supposed to dislike this band for their sexism, racism, and homophobia. Still, I can't help noticing like the rest of you that this song is a masterpiece. Guns N' Roses capture all that is good and bad about hard rock.
    • 6. All I Know by The Screaming Trees
      Like the Throwing Muses, they never had the fame they deserved. This song is beautiful.
    • 5. Machinehead by Bush
      It's just...good! It always has me tapping my feet, without fail.
    • 4. Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
      This is a classic. I'm also a huge Nirvana fan. I love almost everything they do.
    • 3. Pearl Jam by Jeremy
      I'd list practically every Pearl Jam song here, but there isn't room, so I'm only putting one. Pearl Jam is my favorite band - no competition there. Their range is amazing. Who else could record the ironic "Do the Evolution", the stunning "Daughter", and the angst-ridden "Once"? "Jeremy" just happens to capture the band at their peak I think. Gorgeous melody, incredible vocals, and meaningful lyrics. All that makes Pearl Jam what it is. Take that, Creed!
    • 2. The Smashing Pumpkins by 1979
      It's beautiful. I love this thing.
    • 1. Ellen West by The Throwing Muses
      This band never quite got the attention it so richly deserved. The song has one great tune! It's always nice to see women singing in the male-dominated category of alternative rock.

    Wow, all of you have excellent taste in music! A lot of what I had to say were repeats. I have never seen so much good taste in one place. If any of you would like to email me, feel free (phia_hates_hotmail@yahoo.com). It's difficult picking a top ten, and mine will probably be entirely different next month. Still, these are all great.

    • 10. Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
      makes list only because of its impact on the rest of the decade.
    • 9. I Won't Lie Down by Face To Face
      even better on the live CD.
    • 8. Song 2 by Blur
    • 7. Disarm by Smashing Pumpkins
    • 6. Bound For The Floor by Local H
    • 5. Misogyny by Rusty
    • 4. Five State Drive by Less Than Jake
      one of about ten songs off "hello rockview" which could have made it.
    • 3. Bad As They Seem by Hayden
      the best unplugged song of all time.
    • 2. Say It Ain't So by Weezer
    • 1. The Decline by NOFX
      18 minutes of punk perfection.
