not sure about that one.

not sure about bill magill, that track is heavy as fuck

Yeah, I dont think i agree with that.

bill "classic rock" magill doesn't think that funkadelic track is heavy enough?

I think there is other Funkadelic (who I love, as you may know) that fits into the "Metal/Heavy Rock" category better.

time for more music from norway?

One of the finest live acts I've seen. And this is my favourite song of theirs.
was #15 on my ballot.

42 -
Turbonegro - Get It On (1999) (414 Points, 11 votes - One #1)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHKgsa8nBXo

And Henry will be back for the next 2.

That's the biggest points jump so far, yes?

wow more funkadelic huh? and pfunk had nothing to do with that I'm sure... ;P

yeah, i think so.

I didn't vote for it, john

I think i actually voted for super stupid

Not the Turbonegro song on my ballot.

also, Paradise City? Might as well have put Every Rose Has its Thorn up there in its place. yech.

Pretty sure that the markings on this turbonegro fellow are not AKC breed standard.

41 Led Zeppelin · No Quarter (1973) (423 points · 11 voters)

...

fuck yes! finally the good Zep rolls in!

Sorry I meant to comment there but I started the youtube to check that it was the right one and nodded off.

It's like this song is full of subliminal napping suggestions.

Just a little statistical note, for anybody outraged by any particular placement: until really the top 3, this whole race is extremely close. There are three 10-vote songs outside the top 100, and two 12-vote songs in the top 20. A single extra voter could have pushed that Turbonegro song from 42 to 31, and a second one could have gotten it to 22!

so if you didn't vote you cant complain!

I voted, so I can complain at will!!!

and I can complain about your votes!

Outside of GNR, this poll is seriously lacking in proper hair metal. I thought an ILM poll would be the best chance of anywhere for it make a respectable showing.

I voted for some hair metal stuff -- lets see if Quiet Riot ends up on the list.

Hey johnny feel free to post your recap for those who need to catch up.
then we will push on

I will leave all the commentary to my hip main men Kal and Merv in this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXqLZRwp1II&feature=fvw

Man, doubtful Black Blade will place now...

I'm glad there is a commercially available radio edit of "Reaper" that strips out the weirdo doom solo part in the middle, because sometimes I want to hear it and sometimes I don't. It's almost like two different songs (with solo/without solo).

I think the mere idea of a "radio edit" for a hard rock epic is an outright abomination.

But a welcome surprise!!!

Sleep - Dragonaut (1993) (440 Points, 11 voters)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkFs9_kytAg

Now this is some heavy shit!!! This is such an amazing track... makes me wonder if Dopesmoker will make a surprise highly-placed position. But maybe people didn't vote for a lot of 20+ minute songs like I did...

its better than the #38 falser than false track

but this was the only sleep track nominated.

but it rules so much.

Henry is back with the next 3 btw

Bring on the FALSE! (unless it's something I think is shitty too.)

This will be disgraceful mark of shame if the rumors are true...

It's by far the shittest thing in the top 100

38 Rush · Tom Sawyer (1981) (points 448 · 12 votes)

I know that people say that metal people are sexist, but I think that having a song with a female lead singer place this high in our countdown proves them wrong.

Sadly the original as you well know is unlistenable, so here is a better more metal version for you all.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrqIq42EFWA

This is your falseness? This song most definitely deserves to be here. More than TWO Manilla Roads and TWO Celtic Frosts do, anyway.

(And one really not-heavy not-good Manics song.)
