Sorry, but the entire Ride the Lightning album makes anything else by Metallica seem like an afterthought.

Metallica ceased to exist after the Justice record.

OK, they exist. But the good Metallica died after the Justice tour.

Meanwhile, Albania's Top Gold Radio named best Albania radio EVAR.

This just in: Albanians have horrible taste in music.

Whatever, Metallica sold out when they kicked Dave out.

Maybe Albania just can't get enough money to play a band's top songs...I mean, look at the list...on quick inspection the songs they list for each band isn't even the band's best known/best.

Metallica - Nothing Else Matters (Okay, but even if I'm not a huge Metallica fan I like a few other songs better)
Scorpions - Wind of Change (?, A good song, yes, but they're definitely more known for No One like You and Rock You Like a Hurricane, which I think are better) and to put this as Number 2? Wow.
Guns N' Roses - Don't Cry. Number 3 on the list? A song that is probably one of the last ones to pop into somebody's head if they hear "Guns N' Roses".
And it just keeps going on.
The only songs I can see being in the top 10 that they have in the top 10 are Stairway and U2's One.

Few other examples:
Queen - The Show Must Go On
Eric Clapton - Tears in Heaven
Iron Maiden - Fear of the Dark

And my god the Albanians really seem to LOVE Axl Rose...my god. They're on the list 4 times in the top 50! And how do you include The Spice Girls on a list of the all-time best songs?!

mobby_6kl: Whatever, Metallica sold out when they kicked Dave out.

What? He was a drunken retard who hasn't done anything worth while since.

swahnhennessy: This just in: Albanians have horrible taste in music.

No, just a different opinion than you.

Johnny C: And my god the Albanians really seem to LOVE Axl Rose...my god.

I've come to realize that I probably am the only surviving GnR fan. Saw them in concert back in '94 (or 95?), one of the best concerts I have ever been to.

Right. Back to the Albanians. They may have no teeth, but they appear to have excellent taste in music (apart from Scorpions and Iron Maiden, of course). Nothing Else Matters is a beautiful, perfect song that has suffered a bit from being overplayed.

Ah, Lars. What a dildo.

We just get Miami Wice here on television.

Miami Wice is number one new show!

Wonderful, now that that is out of the way, who wants to name the top ten albums recorded exclusively in bathrooms?
Oh! I've got it! How about we do a countdown of the nineteen least-offensive songs pertaining to the existence of tiny carbonated beverage molecules suspended in an alcoholic drink? Wait! There's only one! AND IT'S ALREADY BEEN COVERED BY ANYONE ALIVE BETWEEN 1915 AND 1975!

Johnny C: Scorpions - Wind of Change (?, A good song, yes, but they're definitely more known for No One like You and Rock You Like a Hurricane, which I think are better) and to put this as Number 2? Wow.

I think this explains it:

"All top three songs came out in the early '90s at a time when Albania's wild communist regime collapsed, and people were free to listen to foreign music without risking prison and persecution," explains poll creator Igli Gjelishti.

 
Satchel_Brown 2008-01-21 09:30:23 PM  
are they just now hearing it?

I came here hoping to see that, nice to not be let down ;)

I hope for Albania's sake that they didn't download it illegally.

Eh, it's not even the best song on that album. I'd probably put "Unforgiven" in that spot.

man what?

Peace Sells...But Who's Buying?
Killing Is My Business...And Business Is Good!
Rust In Peace


You're calling that nothing worth-while? Especially Rust In Peace, which usually makes the "All-Time Heavy Metal Album" lists every time? You're outta your farkin' mind!

Oh, mobby_6kl? They kicked Dave out because he was a violent drunk.
