- 1. Black by Pearl Jam
And now my bitter hands, cradle broken glass of what was everything.
Tough list. I picked songs that not only sounded good but also told a story. That's the true sign of a great song. I choose to limit myself to one song per group and still missed several groups: Would by Alice in Chains, Bleed a Little While Tonight by Lowest of the Low and Black Hole Sun by Soundgarden and Plowed by Sponge to name a few. Maybe next time.

- 10. Genocide by The Offspring
Who ever thought that genocide could be so fun?

It was supposed to be a spoof on North American rock. Everybody fell for it. You did too.
- 8. Tweeter and the Monkeyman by Headstones
It's easily the best cover that I've ever heard.
- 7. Boogie King by Screaming Cheetah Wheelies
Maybe they were trying to be too cool with this song, but it worked. "The boogie woogie king of the mountain top, is what I am."

See if you'll ever find a song this soulful on Total Request Live. Or anywhere else for that matter.

- 2. New Orleans Is Sinking by The Tragically Hip
Listen to the various live versions out there. Confusingly brilliant.
- 1. Pity For A Dime by Creed
Great, melodic song with a killer finish. Mark Tremonti is the only guitarist in a popular band with enough guts to all out shred.
These are only songs that struck me as I wrote this.
By: Christa

The whole album is amazing
- 1. Enter Sandman by Metallica
Not my favorite Metallica song but its' release was huge... everywhere
Will there ever be another musical revolution like in the 60's or the 90's? I think record companies are trying to create the illusion of another "movement" (to quote Fraud Durst) to make people feel all warm and fuzzy about buying their products.

- 10. Big Long Now by Nirvana
The most depressing song ive ever heard, but i like that kinda stuff, its very good and is an under rated Nirvana song.
- 9. Be Quiet and Drive (far away) by Deftones
Very gloomy depressing rock song with loadsa distortion, but really relaxing and good.

- 7. A Design For Life by The Manic Street Preachers
A great band, with a great song, from a great country - WALES!

Very rare song, a b-side to generator i think, but in my opinion their best song!
- 5. What I Got by Sublime
Featured on the Dave Mirra BMX soundtrack, a great accoustic song.
- 4. Dementia 7 by Nirvana
Really depressing, sad song but really cool.
- 3. Song 2 by Blur
This song just kicks ass.
- 2. About a Girl by Nirvana
Although Santeria is the best song ever written, Nirvana are the best BAND ever, and this is their best song.
- 1. Santeria by Sublime
This is the most powerfully relaxing reggae song I've ever heard. It beats every other song. I used to be a rocker only, but this got me into reggae!
Yea, im sick of all the crap bands turning up in the charts at the moment - Blink 182, Sum 41, Papa Roach and WHEATUS!!!. These bands suck and the only ppl who like them are people trying to be 'rockers'. Come on guys, listen to a real band like Nirvana or something.
