    I look at this list as more of a "most well known hard rock songs", since it was voted on by the public.

    The VH1 list of the top 25 metal songs was way better than that.

    The fact that Black Hole Sun is the only Soundgarden song on there makes this one an instant dismissal. That's among their weakest songs.
    I will not remove this until Badmotorfinger is offered as full-album DLC.
