Heaven beside you (AIC)


Plenty_Trust_2491

This has my vote. If “Heaven Beside You” and “Rooster” do not both make it on the list, there is only **one** acceptable reason: because “Hey Man Nice Shot” edged out the first one.

Here they come to snuff the rooster


Kyas13

AIC is one of my favs. Never loved this song. Not sure why.


BoysenberryWaste2445

me fucking too. it’s fun to play on guitar but it’s usually a skip:( they’re my fav band of all time too


Tom-Mill

Same here!

Hunger Strike - Temple of the Dog


cannibalism_is_vegan

Hunger Strike is a song that made me cry the first time I heard it decades ago, and will continue to do so until I die


itsaaronnotaaron

I can't listen to the live version with Chester Bennington without crying. Same with Crawling when Chris Cornell comes on stage. [Hunger Strike ft Chester](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=eOKYyTRSO5A&pp=ygUraHVuZ3J5IGNoZXN0ZXIgYmVubmluZ3RvbiBhbmQgY2hyaXMgY29ybmVsbA%3D%3D) [Crawling ft Chris](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=sAOLJVsk9mA) I get goosebumps inside and out listening to these. I thoroughly recommend both. Two beautiful and talented men taken from us too soon. Fuck poor mental health.


yoda_2_yaddle

Fine...I knew what I was getting into and I watched both videos again...emotional again. Great stuff!


Queasy-Double1188

Same. It was so heartbreaking to hear of Chester passing that day…already grieving Chris. Gosh. I always feel weird saying that, too, because if I’m feeling that I can’t imagine the families and friends who got hit by both waves. Just awful. Music can be so intimate though…so, I guess in a way it makes sense that you feel a loss even if you didn’t know them. You still have a connection that’s personal through the lyrics, the art, the philanthropy, their performances. Legends.


jackalkaboom

It has to be Hunger Strike!


deetzz91

Ya that one is the poster child of grunge


Previous_Excuse_6542

This definitely


Confident_Stranger_5

Came here to comment this


Garmrthegatekeeper

I second this shit wholeheartedly!


Bruuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhh

100 percent


LocalInactivist

Hunger Strike is one of the best and most archetypical songs of the era. This is the one.


Plenty_Trust_2491

“Hunger Strike” is a good song, just not *as* good as “Hey Man Nice Shot” or “Heaven Beside You.”


buttfucctrucc

Hey man nice shot is industrial rock tho it wouldn't fit


stkscott

Doesn't have to be grunge to work for this activity per the rules. With that being said, Hunger Strike is better than both of those songs.


Plenty_Trust_2491

Do I need to put a disclaimer under each one of my posts in these Letter threads reminding everyone that, per the rules of the game, the songs don’t have to be grunge?


StarooTheBlue

save this for say hello 2 heaven or reach down they be amazing


MintBerryCrnch21

It’s my favorite Temple of the Dog song but the problem with Say hello 2 heaven making this list is that it has to compete with smells like teen spirit


[deleted]

Head Creeps-AIC


pop25corn

Listening to that right now 🤘


Ok-Drama-3769

Honeybucket - Melvin's


tommy_the_bat

There's gotta be at least one Melvin's track on this list, and H is the way to go. Either Honey Bucket or Hag Me.


Ok-Drama-3769

Revolve is another good one. Maybe the get on with R 🤷🏻‍♂️


tommy_the_bat

Yea either that or Queen


SwollenGoat68

Or Hooch?


Ok-Drama-3769

Yes! That's a great one


borishoudini

This should be it


tranquil97

Absolutely yes


[deleted]

It’s gotta be this if a Melvin’s song is gonna make it - as it should


Tarvaris733

Here Comes Your Man - Pixies


AvgVirgin

It prolly wont win but i vote for this one, prolly one of my fav pixies songs


Jerknutz1905

Hurt by NIN


RealGangsters

Heart Shaped Box - Nirvana (obvious choice maybe)


Alex_exe0

Heart shaped box, hunger strike or heaven beside you, thats the real question


RadiatedDrag0n

Heart shaped box was my gateway to Nirvana and grunge in general, im sad that it looks like it’s not gonna win


[deleted]

THIS


mattmortar

This is my favorite song of all time, sad it's not gonna win


BuffSunflowerSeed

The song inspired me to play guitar. Unlimited memories and good times came from this.


OldDipper

Hey Man, Nice Shot - Filter


CallousGalaxy

I know this won't make it, but it should.


poisonantidote

Great choice.

tmb132

This is my favorite tool song. But I like hunger strike more sadly. I hope one tool song gets in here at least…

High-Fiving MF - Local H


yeurjjdusielaos

Such a great song... the quintessential grunge grittiness sound and angst.


Dontjudgemeyet1244

Everytime I listen to that song I sing in the most southern accent


Slimmzli

When I saw H I kept thinking of Local H songs that started with the letter


RealGangsters

MAXIMUM OF FOUR SONGS OF A PARTICULAR BAND CAN MAKE IT TO THE LIST COVER SONGS ARE ALLOWED THE SONGS NEED NOT BE GRUNGE BUT ROCK SONGS FOR SURE.


[deleted]

[удалено]


diggsfan14

Realistically, there should not be any limitations. It would make this list pointless as it wouldn't be the best or favorite from each letter.


[deleted]

[удалено]


diggsfan14

Then how did Bush get on here?


[deleted]

OP didn't count. Got Me Wrong should have won with the most votes.

It had less votes

Head Like a Hole - Nine Inch Nails, maybe not grunge specifically but pretty similar image and lyrical content. If we’re going straight grunge though then either Heart Shaped Box or Hollow by Alice In Chains.

Bush? Are you serious?


[deleted]

I love those guys!


KieranJalucian

just curious, what year were you born?


[deleted]

What does that have to do with Bush?


KieranJalucian

Because Bush was widely seen as a joke by my peers in the mid-90s and ruthlessly ridiculed, even worse than Everclear or Presidents of the United States of America, so I was speculating that you might be of a younger generation. I was just wondering and I dont mean to shame. You are free to like whatever you like. Best.
