After this I’ll start taking requests for future Royal Rumbles, either weekly charts or year-end ones. I have pop charts dating back to October ‘98 and Alternative charts as far back as November ‘00. I also subscribed to R&R for several years, and therefore have access to other formats during that period. If one of you has pre-1998 charts available, even better. This is from the R&R issue dated 8/17/01: 30. Long Beach Dub Allstars- Sunny Hours 29. Linkin Park- In the End 28. Butthole Surfers- The Shame of Life 27. Godsmack- Greed 26. Incubus- I Wish You Were Here 25. Afroman- Because I Got High 24. Jimmy Eat World- Bleed American 23. Crystal Method- Name of the Game 22. System of a Down- Chop Suey! 21. Incubus- Drive 20. Saliva- Your Disease 19. Calling- Wherever You Will Go 18. Live- Simple Creed 17. Weezer- Island in the Sun 16. Adema- Giving In 15. Fuel- Bad Day 14. Drowning Pool- Bodies 13. Disturbed- Down with the Sickness 12. 311- You Wouldn’t Believe 11. Puddle of Mudd- Control 10. Nickelback- How You Remind Me 9. Cake- Short Skirt/Long Jacket 8. Blink 182- Rock Show 7. Linkin Park- Crawling 6. Weezer- Hash Pipe 5. Gorillaz- Clint Eastwood 4. Staind- It’s Been Awhile 3. Sum 41- Fat Lip 2. Tool- Schism 1. Alien Ant Farm- Smooth Criminal At the risk of sounding cliché, seeing some of these on here makes me feel really old.

30. Long Beach Dub Allstars- Sunny Hours (1) 29. Linkin Park- In the End (0)
------------ 30. Long Beach Dub Allstars- Sunny Hours B 29. Linkin Park- In the End B+ 28. Butthole Surfers- The Shame of Life d/r (but I'll be sure to give it a listen before voting for/against it) B 27. Godsmack- Greed D 26. Incubus- I Wish You Were Here A-[/color] 25. Afroman- Because I Got High B 24. Jimmy Eat World- Bleed American A[/color] 23. Crystal Method- Name of the Game B- 22. System of a Down- Chop Suey! A-[/color] 21. Incubus- Drive B+ 20. Saliva- Your Disease D 19. Calling- Wherever You Will Go B+ 18. Live- Simple Creed B- 17. Weezer- Island in the Sun A-[/color] 16. Adema- Giving In B (but I remember not liking any of their other songs) 15. Fuel- Bad Day A-[/color] 14. Drowning Pool- Bodies B (I hated this way back when but it's too much of a classic now for the hatred to continue.) 13. Disturbed- Down with the Sickness C (saved from a lower grade due to being fun to sing. The Richard Cheese remake also helps it out.) 12. 311- You Wouldn’t Believe A-[/color] 11. Puddle of Mudd- Control D+ 10. Nickelback- How You Remind Me C (overplay (of both this and all of its future clones) permanently damaged the grade.) 9. Cake- Short Skirt/Long Jacket A[/color] 8. Blink 182- Rock Show B+ 7. Linkin Park- Crawling B 6. Weezer- Hash Pipe B 5. Gorillaz- Clint Eastwood A[/color] 4. Staind- It’s Been Awhile C+ 3. Sum 41- Fat Lip B- 2. Tool- Schism B 1. Alien Ant Farm- Smooth Criminal A-[/color]
No F[/color]s this time, but a few close calls. Any report card topics from back when these were "currents" were deleted with the R&R board, but several of these were at least a full letter grade lower at the time. Probably a combination of the nostalgia factor and not being quite as into alternative music at the time.

Afroman- Because I Got High A- 24. Jimmy Eat World- Bleed American A[/color] 23. Crystal Method- Name of the Game B+ 22. System of a Down- Chop Suey! A+[/color] 21. Incubus- Drive A (Was this during the under 25/3 weeks rule?) 20. Saliva- Your Disease B- (Yeah, I liked it at the time and can't even think of why to hate it so the grade stands.) 19. Calling- Wherever You Will Go B- 18. Live- Simple Creed D (Just the band attempting to be relevant.) 17. Weezer- Island in the Sun A[/color] 16. Adema- Giving In B+ 15. Fuel- Bad Day B 14. Drowning Pool- Bodies D- 13. Disturbed- Down with the Sickness B 12. 311- You Wouldn’t Believe A-[/color] 11. Puddle of Mudd- Control D+ 10. Nickelback- How You Remind Me A (I don't care how much it got played because eventually I turned on radio anyways and really always liked this.) 9. Cake- Short Skirt/Long Jacket B+ (I kind of wish "Love You Madly" would've been the big hit from the album though. Can't go wrong with that video, though.) 8. Blink 182- Rock Show C+ (Eh, their singles from this era were kind of uninteresting. "Stay Together" getting like a full grade higher, though.) 7. Linkin Park- Crawling B- 6. Weezer- Hash Pipe A (F**k the purists, it's this song & accompanying album that made me love Weezer in the first place.) 5. Gorillaz- Clint Eastwood A-[/color] 4. Staind- It’s Been Awhile C- 3. Sum 41- Fat Lip B- 2. Tool- Schism A+ 1. Alien Ant Farm- Smooth Criminal B
I think I maybe liked a little more at the time, but there aren't that many negative grades, either.

Hmm. I might like "TSOL" a little less than this one, but let's keep it simple. (None of the others will get a vote from me anytime soon unless "TSOL" goes next.)

That's not one of Crystal Method's strong songs, but all the same... boo!

That's not one of Crystal Method's strong songs, but all the same... boo! That. Although the only other song out of these I like less is "In the End", which would be a tough sell. Hard to get through this without voting out songs you actually like. 29. Linkin Park- In the End (1) 28. Butthole Surfers- The Shame of Life (1) 26. Incubus- Wish You Were Here (0) 24.
