So what's considered the greatest adult alternative song of all time? All these years later, interestingly enough, the #1 song on Billboard's list is from around the same time the chart first started...but more on that later.
Third place went (somewhat appropriately) to Matchbox 20 and the uber-popular "3AM" (1997), while Coldplay's beloved "Clocks" (2002) came in second.
So which tune took the crown for best adult alternative song of all time? That honor went to The Wallflowers and their biggest hit, "One Headlight," from the 1996 album Bringing Down the Horse (it was released as a single in January of 1997).
"I recall thinking that we hadn’t played something quite like this before — which was good because we needed to expand what we were doing," he said. "If anything, I recall believing the song had a lot of potential. I wasn’t sure if we were quite good enough to explore its possibilities."
"Over time though, songs change," he continued. "It’s hard to ask someone 25 years later what they felt or what they meant at the time. Sometimes you just follow your nose and you get to reinterpret it year after year, so I sing it now and I don’t sing it like somebody who’s 25 years old. It’s a different song to me now. Because I’m different."
