Numerous songsI could choose. Two pulled from my best-of hat.

Great song "I Believe"

I know this isn't exactly what you intended, but this needs to be added based on the thread title.

Maybe I'm the only one that calls Third Eye Blind "3EB", but I do, so it counts...

NSFW NIN Nine Inch Nails

FYI, I like NIN, but Closer is my all time most hated song from NIN. The way it was overplayed and sensationalized because he said naughty words just ticked me off to no end. I can not listen to that song anymore. Hurt and Head Like a Hole would be two of my picks from the NIN catalogue.

Does 311 count?

You stole my submission! 311 is one of my all time favorite bands.

And since you stole them, I will submit two of my favorite 311 songs.

311 blew up from their mainstream success with the Blue Album, and while I love that album, my favorite are their first two major label releases MUSIC and Grassroots.

In my opinion, this qualifies, although "GBV" abbreviation is used mostly by diehards (or super-cool music reviewers). Reaching into the ol’ grab-bag:

When I hear Guided by Voices all I can think about is NCAA Football

I completely forgot about Guided by Voices. Thanks guys. I've got something new to add to my 90s playlist. I remember Teenage FBI from NCAA Football as well. They had some good songs on their soundtracks.

AFI
These guys sprung up in the Pop Punk Emo scene and had a couple good songs.

Another early REO song from the album T.W.O. Do I get double points?

3 letters, and a dash. I'm going with it.



And they actually had more than one song, they just weren't big in the US after Take on Me. Duran Duran vibes in this one
