Hey guys! I figured -- since many of the rock posters (me included) always get annoyed when pop crossover rock songs beat out the ones that didn't crossover, I figured -- why not make a danger zone out of entirely crossovers to appease both sides?
A few notes:
Save twice in the top 20, save three times in the top 10, save four times in the top 5, save 5 five times in the top 2.
These songs are all the ones from the "indie movement," starting in 2011 or so. Nothing earlier has been included.
I'm only including songs that were hits on both formats, meaning that that as a baseline, they went top 15 on alt and went top 40 with decent longitivety on the hot 100.
After some contempalation I decided to include songs from artists that are just as much pop as they are alt (i.e. Coldplay, Fall Out Boy).
If I forgot a song, please let me know so I can add it.
Alright here are the songs!
