Why is it that everytime someone mentiones Pink Floyd, they list a song off of "The Wall". Yeah it was a good album, but they gotta buttload of other great songs on their other CD\'s. Come on, how about a little Animals, Relics, Wish you were Here, Momentary Lapse of Reason, or even Darkside of the Moon for christ\'s sake!!

Other favorites:

Ride On - AC/DC
Through my Darkest Hour - MegaDeth
Dead Skin Mask - Slayer
Summer Rain - Pete Seger
Tax Man - Beetles (I think)
Breakdown - Guns & Roses
Cruel Sun - Rusted Root
Needle and the Spoon - Lynard Skynard
Blackened - Metallica
Danny\'s Song - Anne Murry
Cupid - Sam Cooke
I want to conquer the word - Bad Religeon
Belly of the Beast - Anthrax
Hands - Jewel
Night Moves - Bob Seger
Taxi - Harry Chapin

There\'s another one by BB King, can\'t remember the name now tho.

Jus a few out of a ton of favorites.
