Is it just me that can't stand Smells Like Teen Spirit? I don't know why people like it, or Nirvana, so much.

teen spirits good but not great.

can't stand nirvana either. my bro's running a gig with one of his mates ont he anniversary of cobains SUICIDE this year cos its the 10th year since it.

he doesnt like them either but it'll be a good money spinner. shame hes giving the money to charity.

I love Nirvana!

And I think the reason Smells Like Teen Spirit is so popular is because of the riff. It's a mix of rock and pop, and is so damn catchy.

Its actually a decent poll..for once! All the classics r in there.. Final Countdown, Layla, all right now, eye of the tiger, addicted to love all in top 10.
Whitesnake, Stones, meatloaf, alice cooper, Ledzepplin...and.. the Darkness make up the other places.
Compiled from film audiences from that new Jet Black film School Of Rock.
not bad Jovi
