When I saw this thread, I was bored off my ass so I was happy for a distraction, but after dedicating the time to make such a list, I'm thinking this was a bit too tough. I'm not sure if this list actually represents my top ten or what I figure says the most about me (as I had to make some pretty important cuts there at the end). Anyway:

1. Dead From the Waist Down - Catatonia
2. Better Luck Next Time - Oingo Boingo
3. Things to Do - Dylan Hicks
4. Myth - the Mekons
5. Meg - Dogbowl
6. Bel Air - the Old 97s
7. Silly Dreams - Dead Milkmen
8. I Wanna Be Adored - the Stone Roses
9. She's Going Through My Head - Ness (covering Material Issue)
10. Right On, Baby Baby - Dramarama

Allrighty!!!

I have not heard a single song on that list. Not even the Dead Milkmen one. Time for me to hit up some Kazaa in this piece and see what's REALLY going on up there!

Yeah, I've already downloaded the H&O song and "Nevermore" and will get to the rest. I'm already liking "Nevermore." Then again, I've been meaning to buy the Queen box set (the crown jewels or something like that) for the last couple years.

Also, if you get WinMX (from www.winmx.com), you might be able to download straight from me.

There's four songs that go right along with Nevermore, off the album Queen II. They are:

Track 6. Ogre Battle
Track 7. Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke
Track 8. Nevermore
Track 9. The March of the Black Queen

Nevermore's the best "movement" of the bunch, but tracks six through nine there really flow one right into another.

Didn't know there was a Queen box set... Remarkable, Captain!

Also, if you get WinMX (from www.winmx.com), you might be able to download straight from me.

File Sharing stuff is blocked at work... I do have WinMX installed at home, though, so I'll see if I can hop on.

1. Monster Magnet: Sin's a good mans brother
2. Monster Magnet: Cage around the sun
3. Altered state:Where is harrison ford
4. Mister Bungle: Squeeze me macaroni
5. The Seatbelts: Tank!
6. Joe Walsh: Life's been good
7. Golden Earring: Radar Love
Eh, that's all I have so far.

In no particular order:
1) Nefilim - Penetration
2) Dead Silent Slumber - the whole album
3) Project Pitchfork - Timekiller (most addictive song ever)
4) Samael - Son of Earth (later version)
5) W.A.S.P. - Kill, Fuck, Die, the whole album. Best rock album EVER.
6) Ancient Rites - Lindisfarne (anno whateverthefuck)
7) Die Krupps - Isolation (my life story song)
8) Anacrusis - Screams and Whispers (the whole album)
9) Society Burning - Less Than Zero
10) ALL YOUR BASE

That W.A.S.P. entry reminded me that I've been meaning to download 'I Wanna Be Somebody.' I remember listening to that while playing kickball in fourth grade. memories...

This is a difficult task you have set me to...

1. REM- You Are The Everything
For actual meaning, as well as an amazing song
2. Soul Coughing- Circles
I can be in the darkest of moods and I must immediately begin bouncing when I hear this song
3. Billy Joel- Honesty
There isn't nearly enough of it.
4. REM- Half A World Away
same reasons as above REM song
5. Radiohead- High and Dry
best song to sulk to
6. Billy Joel- Angry Young Man
I am still in awe of his ability to play the piano that well
7. U2- All I Want is You
Passion.
8. Everclear-Emphetamin
Candid.
9. Sponge-Molly (16 candles)
This song came out when I was 16, and it was one of the most vivid times of my life.
10.Bad Religion-Better Off Dead
Anger.

I suppose that will have to do...
-LG

Oh, yea ... I dig circles too.

8. Warren Zevon: Excitable Boy
9. Placebo: Special K
10. Monster Magnet: See you in hell.

See, I'm a big boy. I have my own list!

1. Tool - Lateralus
2. Radiohead - Let Down
3. Peter Gabriel - Blood of Eden
4. Ben Folds Five - Magic
5. Chili Peppers - Sir Psycho Sexy
6. Seals & Croft - Summer Breeze
7. Splashdown - The Archer
8. Genesis - Carpetcrawlers
9. U2 - Acrobat
10. CS&N - Love the One You're With

Fred Eaglesmith, Water in the Fuel
The Cowboy Junkies, To Love is to Bury
Bruce Springsteen, Nebraska
Camper Van Beethoven, All Her Favorite Fruit

...and I'm going to leave it at nine, because I keep typing something and then thinking of something else I like better and erasing it and then repeating....

Bruce

Jolene, Queen Adreena cover.
Nancy Boy, Placebo (Single VERSION, this is important, because it is completley different from the Album version. Primarily it is different because he didn't lick my copy of the album version.

Steam, Peter Grabriel (THERE ARE NO FUCKING IGUANAS!!!)

The theme song from GODS, and any song from AWESOME, though they have to be the Amiga versions. This goes under one heading, because it is *Computer Music*.

Recently, I have been *M-I-X The Flower Into The Bowel!""*-itting it up with Parappa the Rappa. That fucking rocks.

More video games musci, I know, but I gotta put in "Just Do It Up" from the original Command & Conquer. This is worth digging out just for that one tune. You cannot find it anywhere.

Musci is a type of Meusli, by the way.

Queen, We Will Rock You, cos, c'mon.
My Vitriol, At Your Feet, (Because he jumped off stage and fell at my feet while singing. + Stuff was happening at that gig, including first *theoretical* girlfriend.
My Vitriol, That Other One I Can't Remember, but the video involves a wall at 90* to the world, which makes sense, but... You have to watch the video.

The Blade Runner Theme, it's so haunting, y'know?
Guano Apes, No Feet.
Or is that No Feet, Guano ??????SAaspes, I can't remember which order we're doing 'em in.

Bechi Nailed Recci, because it stuck in my head alll day long, for 6 days. ALSO: FAN-POINTS for being the first to mention a Robb Sherwin-induced song!
The Jennifer Hammond rendition of "I'm a Cucumber", it's a fucking classic.

-LLLLLLLEX K_PAX OOIAAAM AN ALIEN!!111

2. Mates of State - "A Control Group"
3. Liars - "Mr Your On Fire Mr"
4. Pinback - "Seville"

Hey. Why was my list deleted from this thread?

Why am I being censored on this BBS that I have breathed life into for the last several years?

What is going on here?

Your list was deemed too radical for our uncultured mi-

Oh, it's more like you never posted it.

Post it, butttard. Everyone's expecting it to be 5 RAtM songs and 5 Rush songs, so surprise us.

I DID post it, the first night this idiotic thread went up.

I AM BEING CENSORED BY THE SYSTEM ADMINISTRATORS OF THIS SITE.

And I took special care to not include more than 1 song from any band, because I knew I'd get flak for doing 5 Rush songs and 5 RATM songs. I spent hours on that damn post...

AND THEN IT WAS CENSORED BY THE SYSTEM ADMINISTRATORS OF THIS SITE.

And now I don't even remember what the list was. I think it was:

Spirit of Radio (Rush)
Killing in the Name (RATM)
In My Time of Dying (Zeppelin)
Rhythm of the Heat (Peter Gabriel)
Streamline (System of a Down)
Stand (Blues Traveler)
Welcome to the Terrordome (Public Enemy)
Sex Machine (James Brown)
46 & 2 (Tool)
Battle in the Mutara Nebula (Star Trek II)

I don't expect anyone to actually see this list, since I'm sure it will now be instantly CENSORED BY THE SYSTEM ADMINISTRATORS OF THIS SITE.

Well, gee, Ben. I guess that's <i>one</i> way to not include more than one song from any one band.

Bruce

It is my secret shame that I've recognized maybe 5% of the song titles in this list. Oh, wait, I guess secret's not the best word here. This is not a proper top ten list as it's in no particular order. If that thought blows your mind, consider them all tied for first.

Muzzle - The Smashing Pumpkins

For years this was the song for me and I saw it (and the album that surrouned it) as a damning, enlightening, uplifitng, then again damning treatise on the simultaneously frivolous and inescapably necesssary material world. I later learned it was just some song about a dude getting a divorce. But by then the damage was done and I was halfway to (not) getting a B.A. in philosophy. Whoops.

Army - Ben Folds Five

I include this and the above as the first items on my list because, if I had to pick an all time favorite song, it would be one of these two. Which one it was would depend primarily on whether or not I was drunk.

Fortunately Gone - The Breeders

A simple and incredibly pussy little ditty that I find inexplicably charming.

Cannonball - The Breeders

For years I've been trying to incorporate "the bong in this reggae song" into my personal lexicom as slang for "the best part of an already good situation", but I tend to forget during those rare times I would actually need such a phrase.

Bone Machine - The Pixies

If anyone cares, I derive my screen name from an entirely different Pixies song, one which I actually don't like as much as this one. But calling myself "The Bone Machine" is probably a bit too optimistic, no?

Bathosphere - Cat Power

This (like a lot of Cat Power songs) is a cover of a song I had never either heard nor heard of previously. I did manage to track down the original, but I forget who it's by and I didn't particularly care for it.

Underground - Ben Folds Five

Not as funny as it was when it first came out, but still outstanding.

The Swimmer - Frank Black and the Catholics

Frank Black's post-Pixies work has been spotty at best, but this song's wondeful. The man seems really good at writing songs about suicide via drowning.

Wave of Mutilation - The Pixies

Case in point. For the record, this is the slower B-Side version rather than the original track from Surfer Rosa. Why yes, yes I do think that you care, why do you ask?

Seasons of Wither - Aerosmith

Off their Get Your Wings album. The track before it is about having sex on a train, the track after it is entitled Pandora's Box, and this is the album that features a track called Lord of the Thighs. Actually, all the aforementioned songs are pretty good all things considered, but I find the inclusion of a sort of pre-Goth song featuring an out of tune acoustic guitar in their company to be one of the universe's great mysteries.

A few changes here and there. I'm tellin' ya, this list changes like clockwork!

1. Q And Not U - "Hooray for Humans"
2. The Postal Service - "Brand New Colony"
3. Liars - "Mr Your On Fire Mr"
4. Pinback - "Seville"
5. Les Savy Fav - "The Slip"
6. Enon - "Disposable Parts"
7. Faraquet - "The Fourth Introduction"
8. At The Drive-In - "One-Armed Scissor"
9. Moving Units - "I Am"
10. Hot Hot Heat - "Bandages"
