98. Fuck this entry.
97. Can't recall this song.
96. Epic song. If anything, it's too low.
95. I'm not gonna jump on the Fuck Creed Bandwagon. Scott Stapp is a douchebag bar none. But the actual music is good. That being said, "My Own Prison" is better, as is "Torn."
94. see #98
92. see #97
91. "Zero" and "Tonight Tonight" are both better, and they're on the same album.
89. see #94
88. "Would?" is an unusual choice, considering how "Man in the Box" is right there, as well. No complaints, though. Even though I would prefer "We Die Young."
87. see #89.
85. should be pissed, but I'm not.
84. "Like an Animal (Fuck Like a Beast)"(sp?) is better. If for no other reason, the line "I FUCK LIKE A BEAST!"
83. see #87 Lacuna Coil is better.
82. I need to hear this.
81. HOLY FUCK! They actually acknowledge the Dio era?
77. "Outshined," "Rusty Cage," "My Wave," and "Blow up the Outside World" are all better.
75. see #83 (before the "Lacuna Coil is better" part.)
66. This song is too fucking low!
64. No complaints outside of the glaring omission of any Black Flag songs.
62. "Dream Warriors" is better.
48. "Blind" was better, but not much. Korn was basically overrated.
47. see *75
46. FUCK TO THE YES!
43. I hope they didn't pick this song over "Rainbow in the Dark" due to Killswitch Engage's butchery of it. If not, good choice.
39. This song should be top 5. One of the World's Greatest Songs.
38. Odd choice, but the right one.
37. see #47. Fuck the Who.
36. Also had two songs, but both were Diamond Dave era. Haggar era almost never gets its due, though it was solid. (Heard Valen Halen's I and II)
32. "Stranglehold" is better. Fuck Nugent.
31. replace with "Highway to Hell" and put it in #2's spot.
28. "Best of You" is their best song. "Monkey Wrench" is also better.
27. "Slide it In" is better.
26. Another band that had 1,000 great songs. You could have put this one, "Sweet Home Alabama," "Simple Man," "Tuesday's Gone," "That Smell," and/or "What's Your Name" on this list. And this one and/or "Sweet Home Alabama" should be top 10.
22. "Purple Haze."
21. This song lost all credibility when Diddy sampled it for a song. "When the Levee Breaks" is better, anyway.
20. Bon Jovi... If they HAD to have just one song, I would have went with "Living on a Prayer" or "Wanted Dead or Alive."
16. Almost surprised they didn't go with "Detroit Rock City." "Strutter" is better. "War Machine" is much better, but a forgotten classic.
15. I preferred "Too Young to Fall in Love," mainly because of the riff and how funny the video is (especially Tommy Lee, though martial arts masters with swords being taken out by bar room brawling is sweet). No complaints, though.
12. Me likey. I would have went with "Pain Killer," but this is a good, too.
10. Unexpected to see one this high, but no complaints. I personally prefer "Eat the Rich," and "Iron Fist," but this IS Motorhead to many people (this and the Triple H theme.), and I'm actually surprised that Motorhead is even mentioned.
9. "Ain't Talkin' Bout Love" is better.
8. OVERRATED *CLAP CLAP CLAPCLAPCLAP*
7. See #8. "Rape Me" is better.
6. See #47. All of it this time.
5. See #7. replace "Rape Me" with "Creeping Death," "Battery,"... shit, the first three albums. (though I am in the minority that likes Load and Reload for what they are. They're good albums, just not good Metallica albums)
4. see #5, just the seeing part. People do realize that Ozzy-era Sabbath had better songs than just what was on Paranoid, right? "Snowblind," "N.I.B.," "Symptom of the Universe," "Black Sabbath"
3. No complaints. Kind of overrated, but not clap worthy.
2. I would put "Highway to Hell" here, and "Back in Black" at like, 20.
Jacoby Shaddix: But it's Brian Fuckin' Johnson. You better Recognize!
Me: Fuck you, Coby Dick.
Jacoby Shaddix: MY NAME IS JACOBY FUCKIN' SHADDIX! IT IS MY REAL FUCKIN' NAME.
Me: *pauses* Fuck you, Coby Dick. Don't make me pull out the lyric sheet of Infest.
*Jacoby storms off. I just realized that I admitted to having owned Papa Roach's Infest at one point.
1. "Mr. Brownstone" never gets its due.
Can I do better with replacement songs? Let's see.
Replacements for all that fell under the "Fuck this Entry" tag.
#1. "Rise Above" by Black Flag
Why: One of the most potent anti-authority songs ever written. Gotta give Old-School Hardcore its due.
#2. "Kalifornia Uber Alles" by Dead Kennedys
Why: Political Punk at it's finest. I was torn between this one and "Nazi Punks," which Napalm Death covered on the spot after seeing some Skinheads attack the one black kid at the Death Metal Show.
#3. "Clean My Wounds" by Corrosion of Conformity
Why: Perhaps the best known song of the Pepper Keenan era. It has a great riff, and the smoothest lyrics for something as heavy as it is.
#4. "Cemetary Gates" by Pantera
Why: Because this is around the time Phil Anselmo could actually sing, and it's hard to believe he can hit high notes.
#5. "Straightedge" by Minor Threat
Why: Say what you will about the lifestyle, and the people who live it, this was an important song that gave a name to it.
#6. "Stinkfist" by Tool
Why: Maynard's vocals against the chaotic background of what's being played. Also, the lyrical content against the delivery is a trip in and of itself.
#7. "Elephant Riders" by Clutch
Why: Clutch has the best rhythm section in all of Hard Rock. Bar none. And I'd love to hear snarky commentary of a song about the Civil War being fought with a regiment including people who rode elephants.
#8. "Stone the Crow" by Down
Why: Alot of good Down songs, most are even better than Pantera, IMO. And, even though Phil is the third best singer in the band (behind Pepper and Kirk Windstein), this song shows Phil pull all the power he has in his voice behind an impressive performance. Also, the Deuling Riffs show just how underrated both axemen are.
#9. "Where Eagles Dare" by Misfits
Why: In part just to hear everyone sing "I ain't no God Damned Son of a Bitch!" on the show, and it's a fun song to listen to.
Honorable Mentions: "Mother" by Danzig, "All I Had (I Gave)" by Crowbar, "Territory" by Sepultura, "Spirit Crusher" by Death, and "At the Stake" by the Melvins.
