1. One Song per Band.
2. My Opinion Only.
3. No Covers.
Well, no that we got that out of the way, let's begin:
10. Stan - Eminem
The first and only rap song on this list, Stan is violent, gritty, and unforgettable. The lyrics start out calm and cool but pick up pace leading to the creepiest final verse you'll ever hear.
9. Misery Business - Paramore
Not as much meaning to this one as others, but the talent expressed in this is outstanding. The singer is tremendous, and the beat of the song will have you listening to it over and over again.
8. Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana
Sure, the genre that this song invented, for the most part sucks, but the song itself is so rebellious and far from normal, it etches into your brain, and your stuck with humming it for weeks.
7. Imagine - John Lennon
By far, THE most meaningful song on this list, and unless you hate all music that hasn't been made in the past 2 weeks, you WILL love this song. I guarantee it.
6. Red Flag - Billy Talent
Probably the best obvious rebellion song out there. It really has a memorable quality to it, and with amazing vocals and instruments, this HAS to be here.
5. After the Gold Rush - Neil Young
Listen to this song once, ONCE, and tell me it sucks. You can't. It's so powerful and meaningful, I'm suprised it's not up there with "Imagine" and "Bohemian Rhapsody" as Best Song.
4. Panama - Van Halen
The best guitar ever in a song, and some of the best vocals. Trust me on that.
3. Thunderstruck - AC/DC
AC/DC is my favorite band, and out of their songs, this is the best. Listening to this song live should be on everyone's bucket list.
2. Thriller - Michael Jackson
I hate when people say Michael Jackson's overrated because his dancing is the best part. His dancing's awesome, and so is this music video, considered the best music video ever, but the song is amazing too. I love it.
1. Welcome to the Black Parade - My Chemical Romance
I'm not a fan of this band. They really think they're expressing a lot when they really aren't. HOWEVER, I do like two of their songs: Teenagers and this. And this one is just tremendous. It has an awesome meaning, awesome guitar, awesome drums, awesome vocals, an awesome music video, and just the best song of all time.
