How could any song be more significant and better than "Kung Foo Fighting"?

Well, if it can't be Led Zeppelin's 'Cashmere,'
then it has to be 'Doo Wah Diddy.'

Wrong era. Carl Douglas's classic number one hit "Kung Fu Fighting" came out in 1974 - nearly 30 years ago. So that song is disqualified from this particular contest.

I have no problem with a Nirvana song being named best of the past 25 years however. Though I would have picked a better song. There are at least a dozen and a half Nirvana songs that blow "Teen Spirit" away. I have nostalgic feeling towards Nirvana. I was 30 years old when they hit big and they were the last rock band I really liked. Since then, I've been more into country and oldies. I don't like much about the rock scene today. Some good stuff but it's too hit and miss to bother listening to a rock radio station. Besides, they play too much of that angry rock/rap hybrid crap.

The grunge days were fun. Hopefully I will see another rock revoluton before I get too old to care. But for now, I'll have to sate my rock appetite on the Led Zeppelin DVD/CDs that just came out.
