[img=052312_bcaseriddance.png]Green Day placed twice on NME's recent list of the best 100 songs of the 1990's.

"Good Riddance," which was released as a single from Nimrod in July of 1996, placed 59 on the list. The single shot to the top of the charts and persisted as a sentimental song used at graduations, weddings, and even on the series finale of Seinfeld during the '90s and into today.

"Basket Case," which was released as a single from Dookie, placed at number 20 on the list. This song cemented Green Day into the music scene along with the popularity of "Longview."

The full list can be viewed on NME's website.
