8. Temple of the Dog - Hunger Strike
Oh sure, the guys in this group had lots of other hits in a couple of other bands you may have heard of. But this was the only hit they had in this configuration.

10. I love that one!
It's just sooo Nineties, in that liberal-rock-star guilt kind of way. :)

12. Good ones in that list, but I have to object ot Smash Mouth
Horrible. Just horrible. That song was in heavy rotation for well over a year before it "took off," only to be followed by that terrible "Hey Now" song of theirs and that execrable cover of "I'm a Believer" that featured to prominently in Shrek.
