By: Derek
- 10. Come As You Are by Nirvana
Great song from the best band of the 90's.
- 9. What I Got by Sublime
Started ska-rock.
- 8. Nookie by Limp Bizkit
I don't particularly like the band or the song, but no one can deny it's popularity.
- 7. Killing In The Name by Rage Against the Machine
It reminded people that there are still some bands out there who care about the government and are still pissed off.
- 6. Freak On A Leash by Korn
This song really gained Korn a lot of popularity, allowing other death-metal/rap-core bands to get to the mainstream.
- 5. The Dope Show by Marilyn Manson
Although it didn't gain too much popularity, it was the greatest hit for someone who was very revolutionary.
- 4. Heart-shaped Box by Nirvana
The last great song this world may ever see.
- 3. Champagne Supernova by Oasis
The only good band of the mid-90's.
- 2. Jeremy by Pearl Jam
Great story, great video, great music, great song.
- 1. Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
This song started it all in the 90's and it was the best one in them.
I agree that music in the late 90's sucked. When Kurt Cobain died, good music went with him. There are a few bands that tried to hang in there, but not many.
By: Nate Dizzo
- 10. Karma Police by Radiohead
kick ass tune
- 9. Smells like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
The dawn of a new age.
- 8. One by Metallica
The guitar stylings of Metallica are untouchable.
- 7. Blind by KoRn
The hardest and livest band of the decade.
- 6. Evenflow by Pearl Jam
Coupled with Nirvan's success marked the beginning of the grunge era.
- 5. Nothin' but a G Thang by Dr. Dre
As much as I hate to pay homage to rap, this song started the thuggish ruggish trend that many acts of today are based on.
- 4. Gigantic by The Pixies
The little known Pixies deserve credit for starting the entire alternative genre of music.
- 3. Last Dance With Mary Jane by Tom Petty
Petty is often forgotten by today's generation, but still remains one of the most influential rocker's ever to live.
- 2. Long December by Counting Crows
- 1. All Apologies by Nirvana
One of the most emotion based songs that capped the all too short existence of Kurt Cobain.
By: Bry
- 10. Insect Kin by Bush
Last but certainly not least, I was afraid I might forget some great band/song, I'm glad it wasn't this one!
- 9. Street Spirit (fade out) by Radiohead
I think this song needs no comments at all, it leaves me speachless!
- 8. Follow My Way by Chris Cornell
Well, this is a song from that one record I'd take to a desert island.
- 7. Bittersweet by Fuel
Another great song from a great band that still has a lot to show (I hope).

- 3. Serve the Servants by Nirvana
You can almost feel his pain as he sings with that melancholic and sad tone.
- 2. Be Quiet and Drive (far away) by Deftones
The passion employed by Chino and the energy of the rest of the band almost makes me cry each time I hear this song.
- 1. Corduroy by Pearl Jam
This is a song I'll never ever get tired of. This also represents the attitude I love most about Pearl Jam.

- 1. Everybody Hurts by REM
By: Rhea
- 10. Mexican Moon by Concrete Blonde
very moody, atmospheric music, spooky, passionate, just a great song
- 9. Anniversary Song by The Cowboy Junkies
the only thing that got me through my hell retail job in 1994
- 8. Am I the Same Girl? by Swing Out Sister
Ok, so yeah it's a remake... but it's a great pop song by a pop act that never got enough credit.

yeah
- 6. Disarm by Smashing Pumpkins

- 1. Cumbersome by seven mary three
no particular order, and will probably regret all of my choices and think of 10 I'd rather have as soon as I send the form
By: Deej
- 10. Possum Kingdom. by Toadies
Too bad so many people don't know about the Toadies. They're missing out on some good music.
- 9. Method of Expression by Candiria
From the jazzy beginning to the grinding end, 3 minutes of pure Brooklyn power.
- 8. Stinkfist by Tool
Tool at its finest.
- 7. 1979 by Smashing Pumpkins
A friend of mine qualified it as the best song ever. I wouldn't go that far. But hey, it made the list.
- 6. Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
Even if I've gotten tired of this song. It really is good.
- 5. Albuquerque by Weird Al Yankovic
Had to throw in a wild card. The general concensus on this song is very split. Some see it as the grand epic of a guy who hates sauerkraut. Others think it sucks because it's too long and dragged out. I agree with the former.
- 4. Yellow Ledbetter by Pearl Jam
Simply great
- 3. Paranoid Android by Radiohead
In my opinion the best Radiohead song. You have to love the guitar at the end.
- 2. Wake Up by Rage Against the Machine
It'll be remembered as "the song at the end of the Matrix". That's a shame...but at least it'll be remembered.
- 1. Date Rape by Sublime
How much greater can a song get?
This should be the top 50 songs. I don't get to mention some of the lesser known great songs. Oh, what the hell. The Mr. T Experience "Even Hitler Had A Girlfriend", King Chang� "Don't Drop Your Pants", Opeth "Demon of the Fall", Local H " High Fiving Motherf*****", Bikini Kill "I Like F******"....the list goes on and on. Oh, yeah...can't forget "Been Caught Stealing" by Jane's Addiction and "Wonderwall" by Oasis.
