Favorite Song By Every Band Listed (By me)

[Mr. Friscus]

Def Leopard, huh?

I love the topic, but this list is so bad.

BEST ACDC IS STIFF UPPER LIP?

GTFO.

Don't get hung up on such trivial matters... Yes, Def Leopard. And, I know Stiff Upper Lip isn't considered their greatest, but it's my favorite. I'm not advocating for the best here, I'm saying what is your favorite. Those are different things.

 

[Mr. Friscus]

You have pretty good taste. I forgot about Heaven Beside You--good song.

I listen to it often.. such a good tune.. very catchy guitar riff.

I did that pretty fast

I forgot about STAND by REM.. might be close to replacing "Crush with Eyeliner" for my list.
U2 Joshua Tree certainly one of the great gems in music history.
And you can shred Van Halen? I'd love to hear the riff of "Standin' on top of the world"... simple, I know.

[g5000]

If I was captured by the Russians and they wanted to torture me, all they would have to do is play Sheena Easton's 9 to 5, Spandau Ballet's True, Starship's We Built This City, and Suzanne Vega's Tom's Diner and I would tell them exactly where to find Trump's pee tape.

HINT: It's my age and my favorite rastlin' position

 

[hjmick]

It doesn't fail because the list is incomplete, who among us could possibly list every band and solo artist to ever record?

It fails in at least three names on the list...

It's not: Genesis/Phil Collins; The Police/Sting; Black Sabbath/Ozzy

It's:

Genesis
Phil Collins

The Police
Sting

Black Sabbath
Ozzy

They should be approached as separate entities as the are not the same.


And based on some of the names at the bottom of the list, I want to know how old Mr. Friscus is...

 

[Dogmaphobe]

HINT: It's my age and my favorite rastlin' position

Ah -- so you are two years older than me, then.


I saw Robin Trower on his "Twice Removed From Yesterday" tour, BTW. Absolutely awesome.

You like good bands.
