Good choice!  I am evolving .. had I thought earlier about it, I would have split Black Sabbath the same way, with Paranoid (Ozzie) and Mob Rules (Dio), for the B List, and I guess I should have included Phil Collins solo (You Can't Hurry Love) in the C List.  Oh well, live and learn, right?

Arg..the other Garbage song (Stupid Girl?) borrowed the Train in Vain drum track.

Alas, no P. Gabriel.

Genesis  old   Lamb lies down on B.way

Genesis  new  Misunderstanding

 

But, gun to head, I don't like it too much, of the songs listed, my hanging chad goes to Garbage.  :(

Now you see I like a lot of these but not necessarily the same songs.

Garbage would have to be weak or hedonism.  Genesis any thing with Phil Collins (controversial I know) and Gun and Roses - Sweet Child of Mine/November Rain, Green Day - Basket Case or anything off the American Idiot Album and finally Goo Goo Dolls -Iris.

I really am such a girl at times! Is there any hope for me?

Nice list.

My vote goes to Green Day, though maybe another tune.

We need some G. Love and Special Sauce here, too. :)

My next favorite Green Day song has to be Working Class Hero, followed by Long View, and I Fought the Law.  And I love the video of Walking Contradiction!

I have to go with Rocket Queen, and Out Ta Get Me.  Plus their version of Live & Let Die.  Not to mention that other great song with the offensive words, which I am afraid to say I like for fear of being called, well, you get the point.

Got to go with Godsmack....also like Truckin, but would rather listen to a set of Godsmack over a set of Grateful Dead unless I am overly intoxicated or on some good drugs, then go Jerry!!!
