Post subject:  "Well, Their Top Songs are..."

This forum is painfully dead. How about we make some lists to add something productive to this forum? Basically, I'm envisioning this thread for two things: 1) to suggest newbies a list of good songs from a band/artist or 2) to list your favorite songs from a band, just because you can, for ranting purposes. No criteria for who you pick. No need to give reasons for the songs you choose. No limit on the amount of songs you suggest, although ten-twenty would be an ideal number. It's kind of like picking your very own "Greatest Hits." I'll start.

I could provide a greatest hits for bands like Smashing Pumpkins, Nine Inch Nails, Deftones, etc. However, I would like to provide all of you with a list of the greatest songs by a slightly more obscure band. The band, despite critical success, never received the commercial success they so deserved.

CHAINSAW KITTENS

Genres: Indie Rock, Glam Rock, Alternative, New Wave

1. Heartcatchthump
2. I'm Waiting
3. Waltz Accross Debris
4. Tongue Trick
5. Pop Heiress Dies
6. Mouthful of Glass
7. Sore On The Floor
8. Dorothy's Last Fling
9. Connie I've Found The Door
10. High In High School
11. Angel On The Range
12. Skinned Knees
13. Loneliest China Place
14. She's Gone Mad

Due to their unfortunate obscurity, finding music (through whatever method you use, which is absolutely none of my business) by the Chainsaw Kittens might cause problems. If you feel up to doing so, your efforts will be rewarded handsomely.

Just to clarify, the following lists are songs I would recommend to people who have not listened to the following bands. It is not a list of my favorite songs by these bands.

Incubus

1. Stellar
2. Wish You Were Here
3. Warning
4. Nowhere Fast
5. Nice to Know You
6. Drive
7. New Skin
8. Vitamin
9. Talk Shows on Mute
10. When it Comes

I didn't include any of the songs from their first album on this list since in my opinion it sounds a lot different than any of their other albums. But if you find you like them enough, it would be worth checking out as well.

Dream Theater

EDIT: Now that I have listened to all of the albums, here is a revised list top 15 list. I tried to span every album since, honestly, there's good material on every one.

  • Another Won (Majesty demos, 1986/SCORE, 2006)
    Released as a demo while the band were called Majesty. The first professional release of the song was on the live album SCORE.

  • The Ytse Jam (When Dream and Day Unite, 1989) (Length: 5:43)
    Dream Theater's first instrumental. Contains solos from each instrument (keyboard, guitar, bass, drums).

  • Pull Me Under (Images and Words, 1992) (Length: 8:13)
    The band's biggest hit.

  • Metropolis Pt. I: The Miracle and the Sleeper (Images and Words, 1992) (Length: 9:31)
    The quintessential DT song, it has been featured on every DT live album to date, and also spawned the Metropolis Pt. II: Scenes From A Memory album.

  • Under A Glass Moon (Images and Words, 1992) (Length: 7:02)
    Regularly features on lists of best guitar solos.

  • A Mind Beside Itself (Awake, 1994) (Length: 20:28)
    A three-part epic dealing with religion. The third part, The Silent Man, draws from The Arabian Nights and is one of the few acoustic songs in the Dream Theater catalog.

  • The Mirror/Lie (Awake, 1994) (Length: 13:19)
    Considered to be the prequels of the Alcoholics Anonymous Saga being written by DT drummer Mike Portnoy.

  • A Change of Seasons (A Change of Seasons, 1995) (Length: 23:06)
    Released on Dream Theater's only EP (extended play), it deals with the death of Portnoy's mother and how we should live our life to the fullest.

  • Lines in the Sand (Falling Into Infinity, 1997) (Length: 12:05)
    Featuring Doug Pinnick of King's X on backup vocals, this is a song that deals with how people miss the true point of religion: peace and love.

  • Scene Seven: I. The Dance of Eternity (Metropolis Pt. II: Scenes From A Memory, 1999) (Length: 6:13)
    Easily one of the most complex and crazy songs in the catalog, with over 120 time signature changes over the course of the song.

  • Scene Eight: The Spirit Carries On (Metropolis Pt. II: Scenes From A Memory, 1999) (Length: 6:37)
    An excellent song that would work well at funerals.

  • The Glass Prison (Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence, 2002) (Length: 13:52)
    The beginning of the Alcoholics Anonymous Saga and arguably one of Dream Theater's heaviest and most aggressive songs.

  • Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence (Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence, 2002) (Length: 42:04)
    Dream Theater's longest song. It explores six different stories (degrees) of mental illness: manic-depressive disorder (About To Crash/Reprise), post-traumatic stress disorder (War Inside My Head), delusions of grandeur (The Test That Stumped Them All), post-partum depression (Goodnight Kiss), autism (Solitary Shell), and dissociative identity disorder (Losing Time).

  • In The Name of God (Train of Thought, 2003) (Length: 14:15)
    Their second political song (The Great Debate being the first), and an amazing end to the album.

  • Octavarium (Octavarium, 2005) (Length: 24:00)
    The second-longest song in the catalog (24 minutes), it is the band's ode to progressive rock and considered by some to be DT's magnum opus. Influences from Pink Floyd and Yes, among others, can be clearly heard in this track.

It's hard to say out of the hundreds of compositions any single composer to choose a favourite.

I would have to say:

Beethoven
Sonata No. 14 in C sharp minor: Adagio sostenuto

Chopin
Prelude No. 15 in D flat major

Bach
Air on the G String

Tchaikovsy
String Quartet No. 1 in D major

Mozart
His unfinished Requiem to his father is neat.

Any other classical music composer most people here wouldn't have heard of, so I won't bother mentioning my favourite work of theirs.

Green Day has a song called "In the End". Do a little research before you post about something you don't know, chief.

I recently bought the Led Zeppelin: Complete Studio Recordings box set, so I've introduced myself to Zep's entire discography in the course of about... 24 hours. :P I've split my list into two parts, to contrast them with the official Led Zeppelin Early/Latter Days "Best of" albums, which left out a lot of my favorite songs.

Early Days: Led Zeppelin I-IV
1. "Babe I'm Going Leave You" - I
2. "Dazed and Confused" - I
3. "Your Time is Gonna Come" - I
4. "Thank You" - II
5. "Ramble On" - II
6. "Bring it on Home" - II
7. "Immigrant Song" - III
8. "Celebration Day" - III
9. "Tangerine" - III
10. "Hey Hey What Can I Do" - Coda
11. "Battle of Evermore" - IV
12. "Misty Mountain Hop" - IV
13. "When the Levee Breaks" - IV

The major problem with the official "Early Days" collection is that it is much too dominated by Led Zeppelins I and IV. As a result, Led Zeppelins II and III were hack-jobbed and, thus, are VERY poorly represented. I mean, I get that III is probably the most underplayed album in Zeppeline's catalogue, but you do NOT ignore "Tangerine," people!

Latter Days: Houses of the Holy-Coda
1. "The Rain Song" - Houses of the Holy
2. "Over the Hills and Far Away" - Houses of the Holy
3. "Dancing Days" - Houses of the Holy
4. "The Ocean" - Houses of the Holy
5. "Houses of the Holy" - Physical Graffiti (album one)
6. "Trampled Under Foot" - Physical Graffiti (album one)
7. "Kashmir" - Physical Graffiti (album one)
8. "Down by the Seaside" - Physical Graffiti (album two)
9. "Nobody's Fault But Mine" - Presence
10. "Fool in the Rain" - In Through the Out Door
11. "Carouselambra" - In Through the Out Door
12. "All My Love" - In Through the Out Door
13. "Travelling Riverside Blues" - Coda

The major problem with "Later Days" is that a lot of the songs in the second half of Zeppelin's career are pushing the eight-minute mark, with MANY passing ten minutes. You can't represent six albums worth of this kind of material on one disc. Plus, they completely goofed up with the selections from Houses of the Holy.

That being said, these are only my 25-30 absolute favorite Led Zeppelin songs. The problem is that I've now listened to almost everything they put out, and Led Zeppelin absolutely does NOT do "bad songs." That's why the Early & Latter Days collections just don't work - Zeppelin's ratio of good to bad songs is so incredibly large.
