St. Boo presents a challenging idea! This took quite a bit of thought and may surprise a few people.

10. Dark Tranquility - UnDo Control
9. Karma Inquisition - Process Of Going Mad
8. Ayreon - And The Druids Turn to Stone
7. Megadeth - When
6. Johann Sebastian Bach - Toccata & Fugue in Dm

4. Bruce Dickinson - Tears Of The Dragon
3. Type O Negative - All Hallows Eve
2. Iron Maiden - The Number Of The Beast
1. David Bowie - Quicksand

Yes! My #1 song ever is a folky rock song from the 70's. *horns*

I was about to list them all but then got lazy .

I don't really have a top ten song list... At least not one that remains constant over long periods of time. But how about I list my favorite song from each of the albums sitting on top of my computer at this moment?

Search for the New Land -- Lee Morgan
Crash -- Bozzio, Levin, Stevens
Alice -- Tom Waits
Hymn -- Toby Twining
Jump Man -- Buckethead
Mr. Skin -- Spirit
Radio Inferno -- FM Einheit
Chameleon -- Herbie Hancock
Magdalene -- Gong
Overture of the Rebel Angels -- Danzig
Everybody Knows -- Leonard Cohen
The Hidden Garden / Naima -- Material
Far Wells, Mill Valley -- Mingus

Edit/PS--I completely agree with Danse Macabre, but I wasn't in a classical mood this weekend.

Also cant forget...
Smashing Pumpkins Siamese Dream is one of the best CDs ever.

So is Guns N Roses Appetite For Destruction.

So is Megadeth - Peace Sells, but Who's Buying?

So is Metallica - Master of Puppets

So is Tool - Lateralus

So is Allanis Morrisette - Jagged Little Pill (This album sold over 28 million worldwide. JLP is great, but her newer stuff blows).

Anyway...ther's lots more.

Mine change by the day (if not by the hour) as well, but as of this exact moment, here's my list (I am at work, btw, which might tell you something)

10. Crisis - Sweet Little Thing (album DeathHead Extermination -- not the pop-music Crisis you're thinking of)
9. Rammstein - Adios
8. anything by In Extremo (if I have to pick a song: Wind)
7. Megadeth - Symphony of Destruction
6. TIE: Clutch - Animal Farm or Celldweller - Switchback
5. Helmet vs. House of Pain - Just Another Victim
4. Eight Ball Grifter - Get Down And Go
3. Union Underground - South Texas Deathride
2. Universal Stomp - O.E.M.
1. G//Z/R - Drive Boy, Shooting

This should give you a glimpse into my disturbed little mind:

And please pardon my atrocious spelling.

0. Drowning Pool - Let the Bodies Hit the Floor (Sooo angry!)
9. Enya - Oricono Flow or Carribiean Blue (Me and the wife danced to this)
8. Wolfstone - Brave Boys (Yes, I named my avatar after this band, they would fill up this list if I didn't try to be diverse.)
7. Bad Religion - 21st Century Digital Boy (Seems applicable heheh)
6. Limp Bizkit - Take a Look Around (yeah i know, but it's a great song!)
5. Eiffel65 - Blue or Move Your Body (Blue is my cell phone ring, ok Tris?!)
4. Chieftans - Theme from Rob Roy (I love movie soundtrax)
3. Candlebox - Far Behind (Just love the guitar at the beginning)
2. Disturbed - Sickness / NME (Yay more angry!)

And my number one fav: Blind Guardian - Bard's Song

I'm a huge Tolkien nerd, and a Hard Rock band that sings about hobbits, elves, Sauron? I'm in heaven. This song is a ballad though, and very memorable, catchy and there are live versions of this song with an audience speaking german I think - then the song starts, and they all sing in English. It's incredible.

And I forgot to sneak Alien Ant Farm's cover of Michael Jackson in here somewhere. Oh well.

10. Staind - Outside (don't know why, just like it)
9. Alizee - Moi Lolita
8. Master Blaster - How old are you?
7. My Will - Inuyasha (Anime)
6. Smashing Pumpkins - Disarm
5. REM - Losing my Religion
4. Look up! The Sky is Falling (from Robotech, an anime, so i don't really know the singer)
3. Disturbed - Down With the Sickness
2. Spineshank - New Disease (big thanks to both Ichyro and Tarryk for turning me to them)
1. Peter Gabriel - Red Rain

The reasons for Peter Gabriel and REM being in there is because i grew up listening to them, and those two are my favorite songs by them.

I love 'In Your Eyes', very nostalgiac, can't remember what movie that was...

10. Guano Apes - Lords of the Boards
9. BT - Never Gonna Come Back Down
8. Guano Apes - Open Your Eyes
7. Love Hina - Love & Joy
6. Bach - Minuet in G minor
5. Rob Zombie - Dragula
4. Murray Head - One Night in Bangkok
3. Beethoven - Für Elise
2. (Honestly dont remember the composer) - The Heavens Are Telling

...

1. Pitschifter - Microwaved

10. Shaba Ranks - Ting-a-Ling
9. Old Dirty Bastard - Brooklyn Zoo
