  1. Heh. I like music that moves you and demands your heart and spirit to sing along.

    Generally that’s Metal, certain forms of Hard Rock, and Punk.

    But it can be just as easily folk or R&B.

    I’m all over the map in tastes.

    Just not right now.

  2. Ooooh, I just had to get into this one.

    I can name 5…

    5) Tom Sawyer – Rush
    4) Baba O’Riley – The Who
    3) For Those About To Rock (We Salute You) – AC/DC
    2) Bohemian Rhapsody – Queen
    1) Welcome to the Jungle – Guns N’ Roses

    For me, these are the songs that just seem to stop time and make you drop what you are doing to listen to them.

    – CASH

  3. WHITESNAKE !!! I DONT SEE WHITESNAKE !!! THERE IS NO ANY ROCK WITHOUT WHITESNAKE !!!

  4. These are *my* top five.

    And Jordan – your sarcasm is stupid. Whitesnake had its moments. Still of the Night has one of the most massive riffs ever. So to try and get me looking ‘uncool’ by throwing that down – well I don’t care.
