I'd have to stick to artists rather than songs myself (and 10 just isn't enough).

In no particular order, here's a pretty decent approximation of some of my all-time heavy playlist:

* Replacements (Let It Be, Pleased to Meet Me)
* Drive Like Jehu (Drive Like Jehu; Yank Crime)
* My Bloody Valentine (Loveless, various EPs)
* Yo La Tengo (Painful, Electr-O-Pura)
* Unwound (Repetition, Leaves Turn Inside Out)
* Kruder & Dorfmeister (K&D Sessions, DJ Kicks)
* Marisa Monte (Rose & Charcoal)
* Stan Getz (60 years to pick from)
* Frank Sinatra (Songs for Swinging Lovers, A Swingin' Affair)
* James Brown (various)

Though lately I've been listening to either pretty new stuff (Postal Service, And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead, Pretty Girls Make Graves, Ambulance LTD, David Holmes) or really old stuff (Dean Martin, Josephine Baker, Peggy Lee, Rufus Thomas, Iggy Pop & the Stooges).

Well, at least it's from what I always thought was their best album: Ride the Lightning.

Soldier is a great track...
i didn't put Hip/hop in my list because there's no way i can chose the top 10. "The way I am" is a class above all, so it had to be included.

BTW, Do you mean "Back that A$$ up?" Dont know anyone who likes the radio version better.
Oh fvck, yeah thats what I meant. I always forget to put the correct title down. :D

    Yes, I especially liked Faithless's insomnia. Awesome.

    I'm a bit sad with my list because I wanted to add Jamiroquai's "fallin," Lucy Pearl's "without you" etc etc to the list :frown:

    Simply because it is the best piece of hard metal ever made. Listen to it live and you will see what I mean. Most of Metallicas songs from the 80's are much better live than on record.

    You better, I don't think they are going to make many more tours. Perhaps in the U.S. but in Europe we won't see them many more times. The schedule they are playing now is not human.
