Kinda like this thread, but instead it's songs, and only 20 songs: http://www.therushforum.com/index.php?/topic/108729-rank-your-favorite-bands-albums/

 

Probably a thread already, but I want a fresh one regardless. I really do think this will be a lot of fun.

 

I'll start with some Van Halen, and I'll allow everyone including myself to separate eras of both Van Halen and any other artist:

 

Roth:

1. "Mean Street"

2. "In A Simple Rhyme"

3. "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love"

4. "Unchained"

5. "Atomic Punk"

6. "Eruption"

7. "Somebody Get Me A Doctor"

8. "Hear About It Later"

9. "Girl Gone Bad"

10. "Everybody Wants Some!!"

11. "Fools"

12. "Hot For Teacher"

13. "Little Guitars"

14. "Blood And Fire"

15. "Sunday Afternoon In The Park"/"One Foot Out The Door"

16. "House Of Pain"

17. "The Full Bug"

18. "Runnin' With The Devil"

19. "Jump"

20. "D.O.A."

 

Hagar:

1. "5150"

2. "Best Of Both Worlds"

3. "Black And Blue"

4. "Top Of The World"

5. "Judgement Day"

6. "Dreams"

7. "Summer Nights"

8. "Pleasure Dome"

9. "Cabo Wabo"

10. "Aftershock"

11. "Get Up"

12. "Right Now"

13. "Humans Being"

14. "Poundcake"

15. "Don't Tell Me (What Love Can Do)"

16. "Doin' Time"/"Baluchitherium"

17. "Mine All Mine"

18. "The Dream Is Over"

19. "Love Walks In"

20. "Respect The Wind"

Given enough time and effort I could probably expand my Rush and Queen top 10s to top 20s, so I may revisit this later.
