Since I've barely met any hard rock / metal fans who are also into football I'd be pleasantly surprised if there's anybody here who knows half of these.This list also changes (sometimes completely) depending on what time of what day I'm asked, but at this very moment I'd say

1 Sinch - Armslength

2 Pantera - The Art Of Shredding

3 Incubus - Sick Sad Little World

4 AC/DC - You Shook Me All Night Long

5 Martha & The Vandellas - Nowhere To Run (Token Motown entry, because who doesn't like a wee bit of motown?)

6 Megadeth - Tornado Of Souls

7 Incubus - Certain Shade Of Green

8 At The Drive-In - Pattern Against User

9 Down - Stone The Crow

10 Faith No More - From out of nowhere

I was swithering between the band's version and Steve Hackett's version from Genesis Revisted... stunning.

[CW 90+3 02/05/16]

Extremely difficult thing to do and would imagine most people would vary each time they were asked.

In no particular order

Oasis - Slideaway

The Smiths - There Is A Light That Never Goes Out

The Stone Roses - Elephant Stone

Arctic Monkeys - Flourescent Adolescent

Suede - Trash

Eagles - Hotel California

The Beatles - I Want To Hold Your Hand

John Lennon - Woman

Nirvana - Lithium

Massive Attack - Unfinished Sympathy

Ten is too narrow. A top 100 would do other songs more justice

and probably still not be comprehensive enough.
