Nirvana – Smells Like Teen Spirit. Kurt Cobain, with his “slashing riffs, corrosive singing, and deviously oblique writing” is often referred to as the “spokesman of a generation,” with Nirvana being considered the “flagship band” of the bored, disaffected Generation X; they put an end to the metal hair bands of the 1980s, heralding the grunge rock revolution. Cobain’s difference, in songs like “Teen Spirit,” was the soft-loud tension he created between verse and chorus, restraint and assault.

Michel Teló – If I Catch You. This is the English language version of “Ai Se Eu Te Pego” (the original version of “Ai Se Eu Te Pego,” in Portuguese, is also on this pinterest board). Miguel Montero, baseball player, of the Arizona Diamondbacks uses the original version of this song when he comes up to bat. Michel Teló was nominated in seven categories at the Billboard Latin Music Awards. Either version of this song, whether in English or Portuguese, is addictive; I can see why it is so popular.
