[xoklaudia]

[yankeex1314]

the fact that the Hives, Coldplay, Sum 41, RUN-DMC, ZZ Top, Cream, R.E.M. and Oasis are on this list is pathetic, but I'm actually happy that you put Rush that high up, I give you credit for that. But dude, Nirvana didn't make the greatest rock song ever. Sorry.

FUCKING DEAL WITH IT FOR ONCE..

[alwayzbored94]

everyone stop saying that something was bad or missing from the list. it's clearly going to be the uploader's opinion, and you should know that before clicking play. geniuses .. by the way, i thought there were good songs on the list, thanks for uploading.

[gnrhbk2007]

Sweet child O mine :)

[marcohplovecraft]

song ordinary



[VIwavesofmusicIV]

you're obviously a metal/heavy rock fan. Please, next time do separate the two genres: alternative from rock. They are quite different and this list is weird

[NDC49]

@VIwavesofmusicIV glad I read this comment before wasting 7 minutes of my life

[phucket01]

@NDC49 well said I'm glad i read yours LOL!!!!!!!

[nvetter1269]

not bad,actually good...

[spo0o0ky]

Sorry about the earlier comment. That was my fuck up. Didn't see the slash between the rock and alternative.

In that sense, you have a pretty decent list.

[susanandlittles1]

I just am in love with the pumpkins

Now I feel old. I'm only 28.



[kolenzzo]

wtf many of that song are NOT alternative music pal! keep learning and get back to the street

[Klonkii]

many people are looking at videos like this for finding good music, what is the point with putting all the songs every1 already have heard in the list. Sad if everyone has the same taste and none dares to pick an odd choise as numer 1

[97puppilvr97]

you guys can't read. it says alternative/rock. that means theres alternative AND rock, doesnt mean theres only alternative or only rock. it means theres a mix of both alternative songs and rock songs

[CraZyh3ro]

backstreetboys alternative?

[visotski23]

metallica alternative looool :) nice try

[ruifgmonteiro]

nirvana alternative?

[SiL9anfoudi]

AC/DC are alternative? -- /

[lejoe48]

Coldplay alternative? Coldplay are simply mediocre

[joshuapg1000]

yes on "one" just silence... .-. asshole

[world1982A]

Ahh, so much to comment on,... rock/alternative in this case means rock & alternative, versus alternative rock, which would as is pointed out eliminate some of these selections. It's a 2008 video, so that's why there's nothing brand new,... but really has anything in the past few years merited breaking onto anyone's top 25? My only gripe with the list is with RHCP Can't Stop at #7, while a good song, it's probably at strongest only the 7th best Chili Pepper Song, rather than of All-Time.

[seennlisten]

ok people, lets try to keep our compilations updated up to 2011

[LoganIsABeast12]

YEAH Wolfmother!

[Chibby109]

Ahhhhh...really?.....I love Rush

[goodnews4all9]

do you even know what alternative rock means?

[pensfan75]

i dont nessesarily agree and like all of the songs on this list but the title is ROCK/alternative and pretty much every one of these songs fell under one of those classifications not nessesarily both. This is his list and as it would appear hes into 80s and 90s rock rather than modern day alternative... dont hate its not a terrible list

[andre682]

WHERE IS THE ALTERNATIVE SCENe?

[Gmunny76]

Oasis Wonderwall shoulda been NUMBER 1! I coulda thought of about 100 songs that woulda beat most of these out, they def weren't top 25 material,dude!!!!!

[walsabeautiful]

LOVEEEEE <3

[realtermaster]

poorrrrr

[helloguille1]

OMFG disturbed altern!! lol you suck dude i love the songs but the in wrong categorie

[EntertainKaroline]

THE #1 IS SO TRUE (in my opinion) NIRVANA! <3

[Alazthor]

why everybody posers loves nirvana? fuck!!! Pearl Jam is 1000 times better!!

[Callme198]

when did classic rock become alternative?

[Bornkilla174]

COLDPLAY!

[Beast55ish]

i agree With Smells like teen spirit being #1

[itiswilliam]

coldplay hurt my balls

[derhemi]

[newbies4u]

Yes, these are very alternating genres on music.

[MaddyandToriarecool]

♥ Red Hot Chili Peppers ♥

[GuitarAlex198]

acdc alternative??lol,they're hard rock,and ozzy's heavy metal...n00b

[desiglas]

BARF!

[Deano645]

Metallica would be in this. You my friend, have earned yourself a dislike

[rmm3l]

awesome list dude

[DasFrettchenFreddy]

RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS SHOULD BE NUMBER ONE!!! (always.)

[blindedby2monkeys]

little boy, saying they are the best of all time and then adding"in my opinion" is only a mothAfucking contradiction

[DillaryHuff]

Sum 41?? Why do so many people assume that Punk=Alternative Rock...

[xXAlmostEvilXx]

@DillaryHuff thats not punk thats pop punk never get those two mixed up ;)

[DillaryHuff]

@xXAlmostEvilXx Got it :-P

[Shadem16]

Wtf. Nirvana, really? Fucking shit

[SirxIannx]

@Shadem16

Green Day isn't the shit you know.

[Shadem16]

@SirxIannx Lol I don't like Green day so I agree.

[SirxIannx]

@Shadem16

You obviously don't know alternative, and grunge if you think Nirvana shouldn't belong.

[Shadem16]

@SirxIannx Lol. I used to like Nirvana but that changed. Anyway, I never said Nirvana wasen't grudge dude. Just stating that I didn't like them. And I know Alternative very well. Thats mostly what I listen to. Apart from Classic Rock.

[hindymom]

you ruined the whole thing with tom sawyer at #3.

[Shadem16]

@hindymom Are you saying you dont like Rush?

[hindymom]

@Shadem16  that's exactly what i'm saying

[Shadem16]

@hindymom damn. i never thought I would here that. But then again Rush is Progressive rock not alt

[1invoker1]

@hindymom nothing else matter is not metal but its metallica...not all metallica songs are metal....idiot

[hindymom]

@1invoker1 excuse me? i said nothing about metallica or metal

[PaStaDawg789]

@hindymom RUSH FOREVER!!!!!! :)

[ShadyRapture]

@hindymom Tom Sawyer is fucking amazing no need to hate

[leeboysouth]

@hindymom and cold play on the list at all.. Really..lmao

[Hooktonnfonics]

Confirmed Fail after Sum41 followed by Disturbed.

[duanesassi]

[sdraver92]

[onineblug]

NIRVANA IS NUMBER 1!!!! :)

[duke5450]

SUM 41!!!!!! 

[mariometal84]

Excelente!!! But... Garbage and "Only happy when it rains"?? Good Job man!

[Jake030495]

i like 22, but thats all, but thats just cause most is rock and im mostly to alternative

[migu9999]

well done man.

[NateGomes]

Most of this is classic rock...

[unchboy]

Since these are classified as "alternatives" where in the blue hell is Pearl Jam (any tune from the Ten album)...

[absolu222]

Since I do not agree with your songs ranking,, I have to say these are all good !!

You did a good job!!!

[jollyhorn]

KANSAS YEA!!!!!!!!

[heardeeroar]

in my opinion, #17 should be on top.

Weezer RULES!!!!!!!!!!

[013dirtdiver]

"DUDES HELP!!! I had a cassette ones [i lost it somewhere] and it was called "BEST ALTERNATIVE"and the covers were black with condoms on top of fruits :D. Bands like Cranberries , Dinosaur Jr, Wolfmother and Offspring I think, were in there! , SO my question is what was the song after Dinosaur Jr. FEEL THE PAIN? I'v been surching for that song but I dont know the band or the name of the song, . OH and it was something with LION in it [the name]!"

[jjashmor]

Sorry, Nirvana should not have been on this list... I change the radio station whenever that garbage is on, it annoys me so much..

[XPOutdoors]

You say Justin Bieber I say ACDC

You say Miley Cyrus I say Led Zepplin

You say T-Pain I say Guns N Roses

You say Kanye I say Metallica

You say Pink I say Iron Maiden

You say Hip Hop i say shut the fuck up

You say Pop I scream Rock!

You say hanah montana-i punch you in the face

92% of teenagers have turned to Hip Hop and Pop.If you are part of the 8% that still listen to real music,copy and paste this message to another 5 videos. DONT LET THE SPIRIT OF ROCK DIE

[MRiPwn3d]

put the songs in the description!

[JJ2cool42]

people are dumb.

[ZOMGvideoGUY]

ZWAN!!!!!!

[Steynvdv]

sorry i stopped as soon as i saw coldplay..

you should have made the title my 25 best songs..

[carlos31389]

Sweet Child o mine should have been first, and you should have included "nothing else matters" in the top ten, but that is just my opinion...nice songs

[that1guy46]

Most of these songs sucked

[RSKJMJHB]

Dude! That wasn't even alternative for the most part! I'm mean Cream?? Really?

[AN1MAL1ST1C]

since when is disturbed alt??????

[HumpDeBump100]

@AN1MAL1ST1C it has always been, alternative hard rock

[ferminhermin]

Smashing pumpkins should be higher than 25

[TheRobertNation]

I like that it spans many era. I lot of songs I like but probably not in my top 25 as I am more modern. I see some negative comments but remember that a song may stick to different genre. Great work. Vive la difference!

[geddymd72]

Good collection from different time periods. A lot of my favorite bands in there, plus doesn't neglect Rush, which always gets left out.

[1995axl]

Coldplay WTF????

[FiveOfGreenPL]

[1invoker1]

@0806cjp some songs of metallica is rock..idiot...POSER

[peacecbnow]

not one foo fighters song!!! wtf

[jjjaaarrreeeddd999]

what the hell it dident even play one by metalica

[jonnyrocketman1]

i think "rock" is too broad to make a list for, so i'll comment on "alternative" Your inclusion of Nirvana and R.E.M was crucial, because R.E.M. brought alt rock to the world and Nirvana made it what it is today. i have to say that you probably should have included The Cure, because i they too were important in bringing alt rock to the world.

[MrGODFATHER559]

LOL WHAT A BAD LIST OF MUSIC.... NO OFFENSE TO THE MAKER OF THIS CLIP. CHECK MY VIDEO OUT.. THATS WHAT YOU CALL MUSIC...

[sgtjor1234]
