People like "u all suk Jen" frustrate me more than anyone alive. Nirvana were not a bad band but those idiot fans who put all the songs in their top ten list by nirvana are just blatantly stupid, and i feel embarrassed for them. To speak generally, the majority of Nirvana`s obsessed fans were as stupid, pathetic and plain silly as kurt was himself.
On a list that is trying to seriously debate the best songs of all time, do not waste space with your ignorant irrational toilet of an opinion.

p.s Sorry to waste the above space with my ignorant irrational toilet of an opinion.

1. nirvana- smells like teen spirit

2.afi-death of seasons

1 Walk This Way- Aerosmith- guitar riff rocks and the original solo is so cool; has the whole bluesy `Don`t give a f***` attitude that is Joe Perry. Both the Run DMC version and the original are cool.
2 Slither- Velvet Revolver- again, cool solo and riff. And Slash. `nuff said.
3 Sweet child of mine- Guns `n` Roses- cool guitar solo.
4 Bat out of Hell- Meatloaf- The only `Wagnerian` experience I can stomach.
5 I would do anything for love- Meatloaf- Amazing arrangement of the same material over and over again for twelve minutes. And it still sounds good.
6 Stairway to Heaven- Led Zeppelin- Kinda mandatory for guitarists. Cool riff and guitar solo. And I never thought recorders could be cool. Bit repetative... or is it hypnotic?
7 Hotel California- Eagles- cool acoustic guitar part and solo. I kinda like the story in the lyrics too.
8 Money for Nothin- Dire Straits- cool bluesy main riff. On a Les Paul... Woho...
9 Train Kept a rollin- Not sure, Aerosmith? Yardbirds?-Brilliant riff, easy to improvise over.
10 Decadent Dance- Extreme- cool riff and Bettencourt makes good use of sweep picking to make some wonderfully obscene sounds in the second verse.
11 (Cause I`m into Spinal Tap) Sympathy for the Devil- The Rolling Stones- this is the only song I like of theirs; it`s got everything from Latin feel in the percussion to electric guitars and kick ass lyrics! What more do you want?

1) The End - The Doors
2) White Room - Cream
3) Freebird - Skynard
4) Baba O`Reilly - The Who
5) Behind Blue Eyes - The Who
6) Pride and Joy - Stevie Ray V.
7) Wonderwall - Oasis
8) More Than A Feeling - Boston
9) Funeral For A Friend - Elton John
10) Eleanor Rigby - Beatles
