It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

Yes, yes, yes, no.

It was, though. Not saying that's a good thing, but it was.

And true. Still a decent band afterwards, but they lost some band members and that changed things.

Excellent nomination...Agreed.

I get the distinction. IMO Smells Like Teen Spirit is both of those things. I know my opinion is the minority in this discussion and I clearly understand the songs place in music history. I just think it is a crap song.

Brown Eyed Girl by Van Morrison.

Good choice. I can probably name at least 50 better Van Morrison songs off the top of my head.

Hotel California .. boring and looooong

I can't believe I'm typing this, but "More Than a Feeling" is actually kind of an awesome song. So is "Don't Look Back," which was used to great effect in season 2 of Cobra Kai, possibly the best television show in the history of television shows.

That song was UUUGE back in the day. I didn't realize how much it rocked until much later.

I am an unashamed fan of Boston.

American pie and Hotel California are outstanding nominations. I would’ve said American pie if not taken. I always hated imagine too.

I like good riddance by Green Day and as always anything by Nirvana sucks

(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction

"Imagine" and "Satisfaction" are outstanding nominations. Both of those songs suck.

Throw "Hey Jude," "Let It Be," and "Yesterday" in there as well.

That's generous. They're fucking awful lyricists, like shout-"THESE ARE FUCKING AWFUL LYRICS"-while-hearing-"Dani California"-on-the-radio bad.


Ehh, hard to argue that one. "The Unforgettable Fire" and "Where The Streets Have No Name" were bigger statements in terms of embracing Eno sensibilities and are more impressive pieces of songwriting. "With or Without You" is a fine little I-V-vi-IV song but not amazing the way "Streets" is.
