Op I hope you're trolling me but you must be on something if you think any of those bands are one hit wonders and the backstreet boys aren't even a band, the a boy band (or 1 direction of the 90s). They are shit compared to any of these bands and in my opinion the spice girls are better than backstreet boys.

weezer: say it ain't so/ undone/ buddy holly

green day: when I come around/ basket case/ time of your life/ brain stew/ 21 guns

Oasis: wonderwall/ morning glory/ don't look back in anger/ live forever

Foo fighters: everlong/ learn to fly/ the pretender/ best of you/ times like these

Pearl jam: black/ alive/ Jeremy/ even flow

Sublime: Santeria/ what I got/ bad fish

Rem: losing my religion/ it the end of the world as we know it

Red hot chili peppers: snow/ califoniacation/ dani California/ can't stop/ under the bridge/ otherside/ scar tissue

Blur: song 2/ park life/ the universal

Nirvana: basically all of their songs but smells like teen spirit/ come as you are/ heart shaped box/ all apologies/ man who sold the world/ lithium/ about a girl

Need I say more?

When I was a camp counselor and my campers were annoying as hell, I would play that song on repeat till they stopped being little shits. They hated that song, it was great.



And OP, how did you leave Blink 182 off that list.

I would be surprised if you could have even named the 5 members of NWA prior to the movie or any of their songs. Once the bob Marley biopic comes out all you fuck boys will be all about that rasta life.

I would be surprised if you could even name 1 member of NWA without looking it up on wikipedia, you being born many years after they broke up and being from the other side of the world.

But I don't care.

Dunno why you care someone might have only learned about the band because of a movie.

Easy-E, Ice Cube, Dr. Dre.... That's all i got, so no surprise for you sir. Its a little embarrassing actually since ive seen the documentary and iv'e been a "fan" some time back.

Stoked on the movie, going to see it soon when the time is right :)

Yeah a lot of bands are huge but not many are the rolling stone magazine circle jerk that nirvana is right now. I think nirvana was a good 90's band and probably pretty influential, but when critics (especially rock partial critics who can't understand hip-hop) do things like claim Nevermind is one of the best albums of all time I just can't stand behind it.

Nirvana pretty much single handily started the grunge trend. For one band to have so much influence over a large amount of people is impressive. Not even ACDC or the rolling stones created a trend so big

Single handedly if Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, and Pearl Jam didn't exist.

That's like saying The Ramones single handedly started the punk rock scene and forgetting about bands like The Clash and Sex Pistols.
