[which doctor]

These aren't necessarily my top 3, but they are a sample of some of my favorite songs. I don't really have a top 10 specifically because they are loads of songs out there that I think are absolutely fantastic

Famous Blue Raincoat by Leonard Cohen
When (And If) The Big One Hits...I'll Just Meet You There by The Paper Chase
Holland, 1945 by Neutral Milk Hotel

[Dimentio]

1. Suzanne Vega ~ Luka
2. VNV Nation ~ Illusion
3. Wolfsheim ~ Blind

[Killfacer]

I'll do my top three because top five is clearly not enough. Personally i feel top 10 would be more suitable.

(not in order, because thats impossible)

1. Safe european home - The Clash
2. Pressure Drop - The Maytals
3. Europe Endless - Kraftwerk
4. Transmission - Joy Division
5. What difference does it make? - The Smiths

God i have good taste.

The Promise Ring - A Picture Postcard (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CW-4ubJNdQ)

Couldn't find anything for the third one...just know it's really great.

[Invincible Summer]

I'd need a good mix of chill tunes and revolutionary-spirit inducing tunes (in case the revolution starts when I only have these 5 songs). Not necessarily my all-time top 5 (although the Björk song is), but here we go:

Björk - Bachelorette
Depeche Mode - Stripped/Policy of Truth (can't decide)
RATM - New Millenium Homes
Sepultura - Refuse/Resist
NIN - Happiness in Slavery

[Skin_HeadBanger]

1. Decapitated- "Spheres of Madness" or "Long Desired Dementia"
2. Napalm Death- "Suffer the Children"
3. Aus Rotten- "The System Works for Them"
4. Conflict- "The Ungovernable Farce"
5. Rotten Sound- "Burden/Sell Your Soul"

2. Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond
3. Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here
4. Dire Straits - Sultans Of Swing

1. Led Zeppelin - Stairway To Heaven
2. Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond
3. Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here
4. Dire Straits - Sultans Of Swing
5. Neil Young - The Needle And The Damage Done

MAJOR props for this list - major...
I would take Going to California and/or That's The Way over Stairway, the Floyd songs are solid, Wild West End over Sultans, and Down By The River over Needle. You could argue either way though...

But that said, here's a better list:
1. Bob Dylan - Visions of Johanna (easily the greatest song ever written)
2. Van Morrison - Astral Weeks
3. Fairport Convention - A Sailor's Life
4. Joni Mitchell - Cactus Tree
5. Arlo Guthrie - The Motorcycle Song

[Chapter 24]

Wow... this is extremely difficult. If I made a list up right now on the spot - that is, I put down songs most meaningful and amazing to me at my present music taste - the list would probably look like:

1) All Along the Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix
2) Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd
3) Heaven and Hell - Black Sabbath
4) Roundabout - Yes
5) Today Was a Good Day - Ice Cube

This is subject to change though.

[Skin_HeadBanger]

Very crusty. I like. :cool:

I love old school crust, grind, anarcho and death.:cool: :blackA:

Nowadays, everyone forgets that music is about some kind of struggle.

EDIT: And right now, I think I'm gonna replace "To Lower Yourself (Blind Servitude)" with "Suffer the Children". I just can't enough of this song right now.

If you own a radio, how could you not be sick of these songs by now?

[Led Zeppelin]

If you own a radio, how could you not be sick of these songs by now?

I never listen to the radio.

And I consider them great songs because I never get sick of them.

I never listen to the radio.
