Picking numbers 6 through 10 of my favorite hard rock songs proved very difficult. So, I ended up making a further division of favorites. Below is my next set of Hard Rock songs, and later I will put up two other lists: My five favorite Southern Rock songs and my favorite "One Rock Wonders" bands.
8. Rage Against the Machine: Guerilla
Radio: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0kJLW2EwMg
9. Monster Magnet: Space
Lord: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dscfeQOMuGw

Black Sunshine is a unique choice from White Zombie.
Great lists Charles, looking forward to that "One Rock Wonders" just to see what your individual taste will be there.
And looking back I noticed #1 on your metal list- "Symphony of Destruction". I've listened to that one a lot while writing a particular chapter in one of my WIP's, though I was listening to the Nightwish version.
Lost me on these ones, my friend. It's good to be different. :)
I ditto Bernard Lee DeLeo, Charles.
I love Bullet the Blue Sky. No one seems to remember that song, so good on you.
U2 tops my list of fav bands...seen them a few times as well...rage....nice...and white zombie...i need to check out monster magnet...not one that i know...
That U2 song is rarely heard on radio as they more interesting in overkilling songs like "Sunday Bloody Sunday" and other tripe. It is an excellent song.
Monster Magnet is a great choice. The entire c.d. kicks ass.
You either like their politics or not, but ya gotta admit that RATM created some outstanding music.
Alex, I love the little spoken word stuff in that.
David J., I've heard the Nightwish song. Like them quite a bit.
Bernard, most of these are more recent than the top five. I bet you'll know the southern rock ones
Oscar, I suspected that would be the case. :)
Riot Kitty, the only really hard rock song in U2s repertoire. I love the poetry of the lyrics.
Brian, Monster Magnet has a bunch of pretty good songs, particularly Bummer. They are often called Stoner rock.
G. B., I liked Sunday Bloody Sunday but it sure did get old. I like a lot of Rage.
Your tastes are always instructive!

Charles, in this list U2 is the only one I'm familiar with. But then, I haven't listened to a lot of hard rock. I grew up on pop music and I think I'm growing old on it too.
Great songs. Haven't heard "Space Lord" in a long while, and it's a favorite.
Cloudia, diplomatically said. :)
Prashant, I'm not a big U2 fan but I love this song.
Ty, such cool lyrics too
Charles-my son and you would jam!
