    At the minute it'd be:

    Comfortably Numb - Pink Floyd
    Estranged - Guns N' Roses
    Hysteria - Def Leppard
    Panama - Van Halen
    All Along the Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix
    Master of Puppets - Metallica
    Free Bird - Lynyrd Skynyrd
    Gimme Shelter - The Rolling Stones
    When the Levee Breaks - Led Zeppelin
    Tunnel of Love - Dire Straits

    Not a hope :( I made up 5 CDs for my car with 65 rock songs from 65 bands and I argued with myself then so I can't do a top ten!

    While this is incredibly difficult, I recently had to do up a 6 hour party list, it took months of head wrecking to edit it down to 6 hours... complicated by the fact that other half had other preferences... anyway, it means this list is at the forefront of my mind, interestingly some songs already mentioned here and a lot of similar bands... why not make a definitive list after 100 posts??

    1. The Cult - She Sells Sanctuary
    2. Van Halen - Panama
    3. Metallica - can't decide, but lets say Orion
    4. Thin Lizzy - Still in Love with You
    5. AC/DC - For Those About to Rock
    6. Led Zep - Ramble On
    7. Slayer - South of Heaven
    8. Faith No More - Epic
    9. Danzig - Mother
    10. Def Leppard - Gods of War
