    Thanks for the props Manny. Did you get my last email?


    I think I coud literally go on for a year or two at least compiling all my favorite rock songs. Here are a few favorites that I can think of right now:

    Jimi Hendrix -- Voodoo Chile (slight return)

    Motley Crue -- Live Wire, Home Sweet Home, Anarchy in the U.K., and ANYTHING from Shout at the Devil.

    Judas Priest -- Breakin' the Law, Livin' after Midnight

    Motorhead -- Orgasmatron

    Sepultura -- Orgasmatron, Refuse/Resist, Territory

    Black Sabbath -- War Pigs, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Electric Funeral, Snow Blind, NIB, Sweet Leaf, Psycho Man, etc etc etc. Hell, anything by Sabbath during the Ozzy years.

    OZZY OSBOURNE (OZZY! OZZY!) -- All of 'em. See you on the Other Side is excellent. Flying High Again, Goodbye to Romance, Crazy Train, Ultimate Sin, Bark at the Moon The list goes on and on with him. Ozzy f*cking rules.

    Metallica -- Through the Never, Harvester of Sorrow, Master of Puppets, Creeping Death, Fade to Black, Last Caress/Green Hell, Am I Evil?, etc etc etc.

    Megadeth -- there's a whole slew of Megadeth songs that I like, but I don't know the names of most of them. Symphony of Dectruction comes to mind, though.

    Twisted Sister -- We're not Gonna Take It, I Wanna Rock

    Joan Jett and the Blackhearts -- I Love Rock 'n Roll

    I had to edit this just to put in:
    Dio -- Man in the Silver Mountain, and Rainbow in the Dark


    Jeebus, the list goes on and on.

    no fair..rocketman threw in some dmb songs!! i would totally have done that...are they rock?? isn't that funny to even ask?? of course they are, but they don't seem to fit in with the songs being mentioned here....

    if they are, then certainly the police and sting (solo) are rock too. if that's the case, i'd go down a long list of those two groups'/artist's songs before i'd get to another group.

    MadMaxxie, I just assumed that they would count. I basically put my top 10 regardless of what kind of music. I'm pretty sure Neil Diamond wouldn't be considered "rock". :)

    I also wanted to tell you how much I love that you didn't like Memento...you and I are the only ones!!!!!

    that's funny..same music and movie tastes!! just divergent political viewpoints...but i'm sure our wives/girlfriends look identical! :)

    the thing is, i really wanted to like memento. i was telling my wife all about it and how we needed to rent it. she was taking my word for it and went along...at the end she said she kinda liked it...i thought that "kinda" wasn't good enough for all the hype i'd heard about it. again..the concept of the character was great...i just think the magic of the movie stopped right there.

    The way I see it, the movie and music tastes are more important than the political ones. While we may disagree on whether or not abortion should be legal, when will we ever have that question occur in our lives...knock on wood. :) Meanwhile, we could get together over a couple of beers before the next DMB concert at the Woodlands discussing how all the lovers of Memento were fooled by the unique way the story was told. :)

    The greatest rock and roll song of all time is, without question, "Rosalita (Come Out Tonight)" by Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band.

    Of course, I'm trashed, but I'll answer the "question" the same way tomorrow afternoon.

    It's not even close.

    Anything on Foo Fighters' "Nothing Left to Lose" album. That album is pretty awesome with a bunch of songs to bang your head to.

    Others right now in my head:

    "Control" Puddle of Mudd
    "Want u Bad" Offspring
    "In The End" Linkin Park
    "What If" Creed
    "Click Click Boom" Saliva
    "Your Disease" Saliva

    thanks for the top 5 ranking, manny.

    sorry it's taken me so long to weigh in on a music thread.

    but I've definitely got my Hot Music Opinions, though. and the first one is that the Greatest Rock Song of All Time hasn't been mentioned yet, and that song is:

    CULT OF PERSONALITY - living colour

    rock!

    here are the rest of my best:

    sabotage - beastie boys
    ground on down - ben harper
    voodoo chile - jimi hendrix
    killing in the name of - rage against the machine
    my name is jonas - weezer
    tired of sex - weezer
    d'ya know what I mean? - oasis
    hey man, nice shot - filter
    alive - pearl jam
    you oughta know - alanis morrissette
    baba - alanis morrissette
    eternal life - jeff buckley
    grace - jeff buckley
    angels of the silences - counting crows
    st. cobain - vernon reid
    timebomb - old 97s
    mountain song - jane's addiction
    bring tha noize - public enemy w. anthrax
    give it away - red hot chili peppers
    tomorrow - silverchair
    sometime - ours
    our lips are sealed - the gogos
    rock the casbah - the clash
    ring of fire - social distortion

    these songs demand the volume be turned up. and of course, I've forgotten many. a great many "rock"-worthy songs are not included here, but these all stand out to me.

    with these songs, I never can seem to get the volume up quite loud enough.
