My 40 (Ever-Changing) Favorite Songs Ever


*Now remixed with some of my favorite non-metal tracks! In order by preference, although it's tough with songs... and who knows what I'm forgetting? I'm not claiming these are the downright best, just my personal favorites based on my own enjoyment of them. Song titles in parentheses. Will probably change a lot, except for the top ten, which is harder to break into.

Some really good gems in here, particularly Rotting Christ's "One With The Forest", I love that song! Into Eternity and Fates Warning's songs are also amazing.

Ha, yes, I've dumbfounded more than just you by doing that, especially with Bombfood, Oceans of Grey, and Burning Bridges.

Well Bombfood is one of the few songs I agree upon, but the latter two came to mind indeed, I would have picked Pyramid God and Masque Of The Red Death or Painted Skies.
