The Top Ten

1 Sweet Child O' Mine - Guns N' Roses

2 Hotel California - Eagles

4 Dream On - Aerosmith

5 Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana

6 Under the Bridge - Red Hot Chili Peppers

Third-rate garage band.

13 21 Guns - Green Day

14 Jump - Van Halen

15 Blitzkrieg Bop - Ramones

16 Detroit Rock City - Kiss

17 For What It's Worth - Buffalo Springfield

Not really; it was about some highly localized protests by college-age kids who were unhappy that a popular nightclub was being torn down for a traffic right of way. Everything beyond that was totally co-opted.

18 The End - The Doors

19 Master of Puppets - Metallica

The fact that this song is at 33 is beyond me. Master Of Puppets is better than the song that's at #1 right now. (Sweet Child O' Mine) Get this song higher!

20 Runnin with the Devil - Van Halen

I'm surprised no one else has put any Van Halen songs on this list...

21 Bring Me to Life - Evanescence

22 Turn, Turn, Turn - The Byrds

23 Jesus of Suburbia - Green Day

24 Welcome to the Black Parade - My Chemical Romance

25 Breathe Into Me - Red
