No. Just... No.
Matt Cruz   |72.93.105.xxx |2007-06-07 18:02:11
that is so incorrect it's sad.
matt   |24.245.55.xxx |2007-09-21 21:26:26
that may be the worst list I've ever seen... then again I haven't looked at the others yet. no wonder the czars fell.
Anonymous   |219.89.69.xxx |2008-07-13 18:24:09
the czars may have fallen, but the gods haven't
Anonymous   |219.89.69.xxx |2008-07-13 18:24:39
..i am a god!
fordzii  - green day   |124.176.171.xxx |2007-09-24 09:10:29
there are too many useless green day songs there, good riddance, longview and welcome to paradise are the only notable ones, where as when i come around should be in the top 3.

WHAT ARE YOU ON YOU FAGGOT MUNCHING CUNT???
savannah  - god help you   |69.140.32.xxx |2007-10-13 10:22:06
you were either born in like 1995 or you just happen to have the WORST taste in music.. i mean its cool if you're guilty pleasure is the all american rejects.. but BOWLING FOR SOUP? and Sum 41?? you need help
dan  - offspringgtafan     |70.109.131.xxx |2008-11-01 21:27:48
you're a dumbass. sum 41 is a talented, excellent band. i'm sick of people thinking of them as 'those 'fat lip' blink-182 rip-offs.' if you actually listened to 'does this look infected?' or 'chuck', you'd tell that sum 41 are a heavy, agressive punk band with incredible talent. it's hilarious that you'd classify them as a similar band to bowling for soup. also, if you're okay with all american retards, but think sum 41 are poppy, you're the one who needs help.
savannah   |160.36.199.xxx |2007-10-13 10:50:07
and another thing.. all of your lists seem to be contradicting themselves... you say that pearl jam is overrated yet you consider them worthy of your top 100 90s songs AND your 20 most influential songs list.. what the fuck dude.. make up your mind.. or let me make it up for you.. PEARL JAM IS NOT OVERRATED and neither are half the bands on that list
TRC  - Reply   |69.140.32.xxx |2007-10-13 18:51:14
I do think Pearl Jam is overrated, they are given way too much credit. They have a couple of really good songs, but they are not one of the best bands of all time. With respect to the influential list, that list is not as subjective as the other lists, which are based a lot on my own taste. The Influential songs list is much more objective and fact based. That will explain the contradiction.
Maun  - What?   |130.254.155.xxx |2007-11-01 13:55:34
So you put down Pearl Jam yet Sum 41 and Bowling for Soup make your list? It's a sad world we live in...
some one smarter then u  - WTF   |58.165.145.xxx |2007-10-17 16:48:42
this is the most Horrible list I have ever seen, I mean dear god 3 Blink182 songs in the top 5, Jimmy Eat World at 1

What the fuck dude this is some messed up shit
Sided_Line  - Learn your music   |209.115.255.xxx |2007-10-24 18:59:28
wtf No way pain is not #1 it should be in the middle which isn't even on the list!
TRC  - No. 8   |129.2.137.xxx |2007-10-24 20:38:58
The Middle is no. 8... Pain rocks!

The Rock Czar
The BEAST  - no problem   |98.203.194.xxx |2007-10-31 18:35:56
i just started listening to this type of music so at least i see some new band names to look up.

but i can tell that #1 song up there is way wrong.
The BEAST  - o wow   |98.203.194.xxx |2007-10-31 18:39:32
ok never mind this list is just garbage lol number 49 is better than song 1 if you ask me
the avenger  - wow   |199.74.69.xxx |2007-11-07 10:59:39
how can you call this a best of pop punk without any actual pop-punk essentials? you like blink so much, but check out guest list by the screeching weasels and you'll see where they ripped their entire sound.
sledzib  - this list   |205.188.116.xxx |2007-11-19 00:46:17
This list reminds me of "high school punk poser" kids list of pop punk songs. You do have some good bands listed, but not their best songs. "the sweetness" by JEW is much better than pain. The green day album "dookie" is much better than any of their newer stuff.
Damn!!  - damn!!   |190.56.82.xxx |2007-11-23 13:41:39
this is the WORST genre of music for sure!!!! there is not good music, wack bands and the quality of the songs and the lyrics just makes me sick!! good charlotte, sum 41 ah? i hate those bands but its up to your taste dudeª!
Elisa  - Weakfuckinsaucebro   |75.173.39.xxx |2007-12-13 01:55:31
This is a pretty pathetic list of "pop punx", how about we open our minds to real melodic punk. Shit thats underrated, for example listen to Daggermouth, then you will know.
Maverick  - Umm... Seriously   |75.71.222.xxx |2007-12-13 16:43:08
Hmmmm... Lets look back at the Genre... POP-PUNK People... seriously, how can you put screeching weasels, a punk bad, in a genre with blink-182, a pop punk band. If you're going to bag on someone for a list, get your shit in line. Pop punk is a genre of boy bands singing about how they lost the girl, real punk is about fighting the politicians. For the genre, its not the best, but leave the kid alone, because he nailed the genre on the head... ignorant bitches. If you want to really bag on punk, listen to some older shit before you make your judgements. Nobody has mentioned Guttermouth, X, Bad Religion, Dead Kennedys... Come the fuck on now, you all "punks" shame those who stand up for the true meaning...
The Rock Czar  - Yep   |69.251.249.xxx |2007-12-13 17:25:17
You took the words out of my mouth, Maverick. I love Bad Religion, Social Distortion, The Clash, etc. They are just not for this list.
john  - ?   |24.14.96.xxx |2007-12-15 18:12:26
why are u guys dissing this guy? yeah so what blink's on it..there POP-punk..but it would be a better list without wanna-be bands like sum41, good charlotte, etc..and blink should in the lower 30s and more oldies would good too
lucky  - d"'know   |89.191.107.xxx |2007-12-18 13:50:51
Wtf?
cuer  - writer/bomber   |71.114.176.xxx |2007-12-25 23:23:25
TheFuzz  - huh?   |68.219.148.xxx |2007-12-28 01:40:27
I actually agree with most of your lists that I've read so far...however, this is your worst one by far. There was punk before 1994....well before 1994. If you changed this to the top "pop punk" songs, then it'd be alright.
TheFuzz  - Nevermind....   |68.219.148.xxx |2007-12-28 01:42:29
Lol...it is the top "pop punk" songs....good list then .
bob  - sir   |85.189.63.xxx |2008-01-14 08:40:07
to that twat who said "Pop punk is a genre of boy bands singing about how they lost the girl, real punk is about fighting the politicians" how many musicians (real punk) do you know who mention political statements in their lyrics? even when punk started in wasn't about that, it was just a new noise. just became affiliated with anarchy. I would say screeching weezel are pop punk, very melodic, (cool kids etc..) I did see bad religion in this list I think they are border line as some of their songs have a harder edge.
LouDog  - What The!!!!   |70.192.180.xxx |2008-02-09 04:38:53
Where is social distortion? And if you want to get to some real punk where is fifteen. And one other thing you don't mention anytning about one of the greatest bands in the 90's or of all time is SUBLIME in any of your polls they should be in there somewhere.
Dr. NRG  - I finally agree with you   |201.170.178.xxx |2008-02-18 17:25:58
I really like some songs on your list. I still don't get what makes some appear in some charts and others not at all. I give up on seeing Matchbox 20 Do but what about Fountains Of Wayne? Stacy's Mom should be right next to Bowling for soup
Anonymous   |216.56.3.xxx |2008-02-25 15:22:49
well im not really sure who gave you your definition of punk but almost all of these songs are far from punk you can't have a greatest punk song list with out the sex pistols, the ramones, the dead kennedys, or social distortion, if you're going to make a greatest songs list at least know the genre
sugar bear   |216.56.3.xxx |2008-02-25 15:24:53
alright who ever the hell it is that suggested stacys mom please do us all a favor and go play in traffic fountains of wayne never were and never will b a punk band they were no better than shall we say the click 5
Alycia Gibson!♠  - Ayy..   |71.186.62.xxx |2008-02-25 17:43:43
The Rock Czar  - Wow   |71.166.34.xxx |2008-02-25 23:27:11
You're kidding right? Smells Like Teen Spirit on a pop-punk list... And you're lecturing ME about music?

TRC
Ben  - Hey..   |221.217.247.xxx |2008-03-16 04:32:03
Hey... maybe he got a few bands wrong like fountains of wayne, but you can't say he has bad taste in music! You can like wtever you want. BLINK 182 =D
Bob  - This is not punk   |216.211.228.xxx |2008-03-18 17:54:00
When you decide to create a list of PUNK bands. Most of the bands you listed aren't punk at all. They are nothing but the pop punk bullshit that came out after the end of real punk. You probably made this list because you thought thats what everyone else liked. Maybe its time to grow up and make your own decisions. Try listening to real music not what the "cool" kids are listening to. F.A.G
The Rock Czar  - You're right   |69.251.249.xxx |2008-03-18 18:59:44
I guess the bold letters aren't enough? This is a pop punk list!! Also, since when is pop punk cool? I thought the cool kids listened to indie now? Most of the bands on here are actually pretty well hated as a whole.

TRC
scott   |122.162.103.xxx |2008-03-20 09:24:57
you could work on more on that list..
Strings  - eh....soso   |75.17.194.xxx |2008-03-20 22:28:52
this list is okay but i didnt like half the songs
Bomo  - ....   |75.17.194.xxx |2008-03-20 22:29:47
some of these bands are emo not punk
holden  - not bad   |217.42.160.xxx |2008-03-24 11:25:03
I wouldn't go as far to say that list is shit but there are quite a few flaws. For example, Green Day should be number one because weather you love or loathe them they pretty much made the fucking pop/punk genre as we know it today! Most of the bands deserve to be in it but IMO you have the songs the wrong way around asuming you base the list on popularity .
marc  - Dammit?   |217.42.160.xxx |2008-03-24 11:32:46
where the fuck is Dammit by Blink 182? I Miss You is way overrated, Dammit is better!
Sean   |24.14.197.xxx |2008-04-25 17:17:40
The only good ones u got our jimmy eat world for the most part but its completely random pain for the number 1? sweetness should be first if your gonna use a jimmy eat world song
Me  - ???   |61.68.162.xxx |2008-06-04 03:01:07
I believe many of you people have missed the title of this list, its called pop-punk songs of MODERN rock.
ali  - :)   |70.111.51.xxx |2008-06-06 22:46:05
It's MODERN rock listed. Obviously the sex pistols would not be on it. I think if you are going by the past ten or so years, the list is pretty good.
vidi  - its pretty good actually   |121.209.209.xxx |2008-06-08 02:32:43
blink 182, offspring and green day are NEW AGE PUNK ROCKERS....

they got drunk, did drugs and had sex alot...(reflected in their music)

dammit by blink 182 should be there, one of their best...no idea why panic at the disco is there...bowling for soup 1985 is good song...as is the middle-jimmy eat world

who ever said sex pistols can u fkn read, MODERN PUNK u goose...i gbet the majority of people that commented are over 25...your past your prime, go play with ur kids

All you motherfuckers who think this list is not complete and or incorrect then put your own fucking list of best punk songs somewhere in the web and give the fucking link on the board
Punk Ass  - 3.5/5   |71.172.134.xxx |2008-09-06 17:11:00
I agree with a lot of the stuff on the list. My main problem with it is that there
me  - this...   |124.185.23.xxx |2008-09-09 02:42:46
oh my god! u guys should get a life!! dont diss this guy. this is a pop-punk list! POP-punk...P-O-P. get it?? friggin hell, just coz he/she dont listen to whiney music all about losing a girlfriend. god, id rather die than listen 2 a whole album about that crap. who really cares if they got dumped?? not me. thats 4 sure. most of these songs have cool messages...theyre not just about their recent break-up with a detailed description of how 'beautiful' their girlfriend was. boo hoo...like i said, they need 2 experience life outside love. so yeah, in case u havent already noticed i dont mind POP-punk music that has a meaning...thnx 4 the list!
j boe   |134.161.81.xxx |2008-10-23 00:06:06

himynameismatt!  - what the fuck?   |98.226.185.xxx |2008-10-24 20:14:41
dude. jimmy eats world is NOT pop punk. they are emo. so is fall out boy. the all american reject could be considered emo or powerpop. all of their songs just wine about how hurt they are. anyway, no. this is terrible. tell me when you actually know what punk is. dip shit
die  - nice   |202.152.40.xxx |2008-11-17 21:20:41
hey, i like this. i dont mind with all those debates about the genre of those band. why so serious? as long as the songs is cool. Put it mate!
bruce215  - punk does not equal illiterate   |68.81.97.xxx |2008-12-03 20:50:45
i read a good 90% of the comments here and you all seem to be up in arms about this guys list and it not being "punk enough" I went to shows from 95-2001 and listened to blink and jew and all that stuff while rocking cro-mags, af, dk, and black flag at the same time...read the the title of the list TOP 75 POP-PUNK. The man is naming top POP punk songs...rock czar i pretty much gotta agree with you on just about all..i woulda crapped myself in amazement if i saw someone like Alligator Gun on here...woulda liked to of seen some Pulley or Ten Foot Pole too (if i didnt miss them on there).

all around good job though and to tha haters...read the mans title before you start going off on a rant about some band that you started listening to 15-20 years after they broke up.
azuma chan  - cool   |195.229.242.xxx |2009-01-03 09:27:29
