Best pop punk song of all time nominations


Meltdown Tracker

Recommended Posts

I figured it would be fun to do like the battle of the pop-punk bands (we could even do another one for albums, too).

What I suggest is that everyone nominate their top 10 pop-punk songs of all time and I’ll make a bracket with the most commonly mentioned ones. I know Blink wasn’t allowed in the other competition, but I think it should be fair game for this one - although feedback is welcomed.

Cool idea. Is there a maximum number of songs each band can be nominated for? Both in terms of individual posters' nominations and the final seeding.

I don’t think I’d put a limit on either. I don’t see any issue with the same band having multiple songs in the running.

These aren't my favourite songs, but these are the songs that define the genre for how I see it ?

What's My Age Again - Blink-182

Basket Case - Green Day

In Too Deep - The Sums

Hit or Miss - NFG

I Want You Bad - The Offspring

Reach - S Club 7

My own worst enemy - Lit

Sugar We're Going Down - FOB

Blitzkrieg Bop - Ramones

I'd do anything - Simple Plan

ocean avenue hands down. combines everything likable about the genre — whiny vocals, beach themes, awesome bg vocals and harmonies, classic songwriting tricks (instruments stopping in the last chorus) and more. it’s a perfect tune.

but i’d be down for this. my friends over you, dammit, punk rock girl, etc … all good picks
