Prob been done before, but I am in a total music frame of mind! Which bands are top of your tree? Also, we are in the midst of compiling a "greatest hits" in my local, by handing out flyers and getting them to writetheir top ten trax of all time - easier said than done!!!! Could you do it?

Really hard but will give it a bash. Top 10, 1 per band, in no particular order...

Sweet Home Alabama - Lynard Skynard
Paradise City - G 'n' R
Fleetwood Mac - The Chain
Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb
The Band - The Weight
Massive Attack - Protection
Buffalo Springfield - For what its worth
Counting Crowes - Omaha
Rolling Stones - Can't Always get what you Want
Bruce Springsteen - Born in the USA

hmm, not sure if thats my fave of all time, but it sure would make a good cd to drive too!

Prob one of my fave bands of all time!!!!!!!

They are great, can listen to August and Everything After over and over. Perfect Blue Buildings is a beautiful song as well.

So does my list tie in with the consensus of the pub at all?

great album always used to make me cry like a girl ;) :lol:


My album would have to have something by the Maiden
:thumbsup:

we did something similar a while back, i tried burning the cd but some of the tracks were v. diff to find :)

I'm not sure, as forms are coming in all the time right now! We've had the likes of Dylan and AC/DC :thumbsup: right thru to Phill Collins, Against All Odds as someones fave song ever :fear: so I guess its going to be really varied - tho Bob Seagar seems to be cropping up a fair bit!!! :)

Mmmm this warmed the old grey matter up a bit.........I'm at w**k at the mo so cant browse through my music collection....so this is just off the top of my head... :ponder:
Tried to limit it to one track per artist.......no particular order.....

Last resort..........Eagles.
Time table...........Genesis.
Witch hunt...........Rush.
Heavy Horses.......Jethro Tull.
Going under........Evanescence.
Nothing else matters......Metallica.
How you remind me.......Nickelback.
Two minutes to midnight......Iron maiden.
No more Heroes.....Stranglers.
Alive........Pearl jam.

:)

:ponder: Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Give it away and Under the Bridge
both have to be in there.

REM - The one I love

The Pixies - Monkey Gone to Heaven

James - Johnny Yen or Hymn from a village

I'll add some more later

:)

:thumbsup: Quick to judge, quick to anger, slow to understand, ignorance and prejudice and fear walk hand in hand :thumbsup:

I'll have The Spirit of Radio and Red Barchetta in there meself :thumbsup:

A few others that immediately spring to mind

Soundgarden - Rusty Cage
AC/DC - Riff Raff
U2 - Bad
Iron Maiden - The Prisoner
Pearl Jam - Given To Fly
Marillion - Neverland
Rainbow - Stargazer
Dream Theater - A Change of Seasons
Metallica - Ain't My Bitch

I could never pick a top 10 tracks, that's just too difficult! My favourite bands are Rilo Kiley and Bright Eyes, though. :thumbsup:

Margot

Skid Row - Quicksand Jesus, I Remember You
Guns N' Roses - One In A Million
Metallica - Fade To Black
Megadeth - In My Darkest Hour
Faith No More - The Cowboy Song
HIM - Razorblade Kiss
Sepultura - Arise
Moonspell - Abysmo

They change every week. Thats this weeks favourites.

As I said, I was trying to keep it to one track per band so it was often close between several tracks by one artist.......the other RUSH ones I was considering were 'Natural science' and 'Jacobs ladder'......

Must admit I forgot about Rainbow completely....'Stargazer' would possoibly have made my list too..... :headbang:

Maiden...I was torn between 'Two minutes to midnight' and 'Powerslave'.......with a possible 'Phantom of the Opera' in there too.....

Genesis, Tull, and Evanescence....I could have done a top 10 from each of these groups......

This is difficult, but here goes (in no particular order);

Lush - Last Night
New Order - True Faith
Depeche Mode - In Your Room (live)
Momus - Trust Me I'm A Doctor
Royksopp - Remind Me (single version)
Doves - Pounding
Joy Division - Decades
The Beloved - Sun Rising
The Divine Comedy - Our Mutual Friend
The Smiths - Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me
