Someone wants to substitute "Smells Like Teen Spirit" with any one of about 10 Replacements songs. Nothing against the Replacements, but there's no way every song of theirs "changed the world." If you want to make a case, you should pick one.
And quite a few of them seem to think "changed the world" and "good song" are the same -- we need to remember that most of the events that change the world suck. Sucky music can, too.
