85 Nirvana - About A Girl 526 Points, 9 Votes
http://open.spotify.com/track/0zeqKbySjKbfW5jyl3PMsW
http://youtu.be/JpMt_YqVbhw

lol "About A Girl" above "For Whom The Bell Tolls" is absurd

speaking of archetypes, "goo goo muck" is like the platonic ideal of a cramps song, kind of a bummer that it placed outside the top 100

ugh, idiosyncratic, fuck this phone posting shit.

xxxxp

I've gone back to Joni Mitchell. I'll get caught up with this list.

(Plus, I can't do Spotify so I'm listening to Youtubes, which is more labour-intensive.)

if every metallica and nirvana album got packed on a shiny spaceship and blown into space, well, might as well take all these megadeath and pearl jam records while you're at it

Not ashamed to say I love About A Girl (didn't vote for it though).

I still like AAG though Kurt wrote better pop songs during this time (Been a Son, Sliver, Sappy)

It must have just missed my top 50 but I've always liked it too.

84 Beastie Boys - Looking Down the Barrel of a Gun 527 Points, 9 Votes
http://open.spotify.com/track/7mPfubAjo4PVuRqO84bHZb
http://youtu.be/yr1Qe2m8oOA

love Limelight, Last Caress,One, About a Girl, and BEASTIES

I def prefer the album version of About a Girl to the unplugged these days...the unplugged version is sooooooooooo overplayed

even the plugged version barely rocks

83 Pixies - Gouge Away 528 Points, 11 Votes
http://open.spotify.com/track/1YZDkJOFT8xlAXDi8lneb3
http://youtu.be/QMHykYTomdo

Not one of my favorite Pixies songs. It's alright.

it's fucking great

I wonder what track you guys think will win. Prediction time!

kenny loggins - "danger zone"

82 Dinosaur Jr - Little Fury Things 533 Points, 8 Votes
http://open.spotify.com/track/4x2SJjJEEtFPsgc62dT359
http://youtu.be/dLIPTOUH51I

Love x1000. Always found this one deeply moving in a way that I'd find hard to describe.

The instrumental bit after 'I had to crawl' etc is the best.

my prediction - it's got to be 'emergency' by girlschool.

already cursing you all for voting "Unskinny Bop" into the top 10

Oops, 'I stopped to call' rather xpost

my prediction : dont get mad, get even by age of chance.

joke.

knowing the lack of love in ilm that is.

[actually, i have completely forgotten what i voted for .. ]

81 Joan Jett - Bad Reputation 533 Points 11 Votes
http://youtu.be/5RAQXg0IdfI

love this track

^She gets up on a chair at discos to headbang at it

i predict it'll be freak scene, gigantic or teenage riot.

at least get the song right if you're going to start spreading stories about me, AG

and it wasn't me, it was my cousin

80 The Jim Carroll Band - People Who Died 537 Points, 8 Votes
http://open.spotify.com/track/6taFIgW5YE94x1icBh5vTg
http://youtu.be/xAKoU_W_mf8

I'll be very surprised if "Freak Scene" is #1. "Teenage Riot" and "Gigantic" seem pretty plausible.

I bet "Tom Sawyer" makes the top 50.

i seem to keep hearing freak scene everywhere i go recently so wondered if it had some sort of massive resurgence in popularity.

Drive By Truckers do a great cover of ppl who died

loooooooooove that song and I never tire of it

probably the worst song i hadnt heard before to hit the countdown

good to see "ha ha ha", for bands like flipper I used my tracks ballot to highlight non-album singles or compilation cuts and that one was top 10 for me

Flipper doing better than I expected.

I'll be very surprised if "Freak Scene" is #1. "Teenage Riot" and "Gigantic" seem pretty plausible.
Have no problem with any of these placing highly and yet none of them quite feel like #1 songs.

i loathe two of them and can just about bear the other one.

76 Fugazi - Margin Walker 542 Points, 10 Votes
http://open.spotify.com/track/5cwA1kFTS1l5BCzKigByg0
http://youtu.be/hRnP5SODav4

Bad penny way way way too low

at this point I've placed 18 tracks and expect to get up to 25, not bad considering

Wow, so either those early Sonic Youth album tracks didn't place at all or they're all in the top 75. Intriguing.

how many sonic youth tracks were nominated?
