    it's too hard. But I try... (I took the decisions to take only one PJ song. Otherwise, my top 5 would have been all PJ stuff).

    pearl jam - corduroy ? present tense ? alive ?
    metallica - nothing else matters
    faith no more - just a man
    Smashing pumpkins - Porcelina of the Vast Oceans
    radiohead - paranoid android

    It could change. I'm sure I forgot something.
