1469 3 Doors Down - Kryptonite From: The Better Life , Year: 2000 Genre: Alternative Rock/Hard Rock For some reason I was thinking about this song today and I also realized that I have not picked a 3 Doors Down song yet. When people think of the band this is probably one of the main songs that comes to mind. I've always liked this track ever since it first came out, but I'd have to say that the music video featuring the geriatric super hero made it especially memorable.
