Nirvana Top Pop
Wednesday, June 11, 2003

While it probably says more about the average age of their viewers than anything else, Brit pop video channel VH1's viewers have named 'Smells like Teen Spirit' the top song of the past 25 years. In the top 5 ...

  1. Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
  2. Michael Jackson - Billie Jean
  3. Guns 'n' Roses - Sweet Child O' Mine
  4. Eminem - Lose Yourself
  5. U2 - One

What? No Sex Pistols? No Clash? I know the 70's and 80's were largely a cultural wasteland, but my how soon they forget. Well, maybe the Kids are Alright afterall: The top 10 still includes Prince and Whitney Houston, Pink Floyd still makes the top 20, and the full list of 100 even manages to squeeze Devo into the last three.
