Five artists - five songs from each

I stuck with the last.fm thing, so these are not necessarily my favourite artists or songs but I obviously do like them all a fair bit.

As Skummy said, mine isn't really representative of what I listen to, as I very rarely listen to stuff on my laptop, and the stuff I do generally is the stuff I download, rather than the CD's I buy.

Savatage

- Gutter Ballet

- Ghost in the Ruins

- The Hourglass

- Can You Hear Me Now

- Midas Knight

On Savatage: Difficult to choose single songs from a band whose main body of work seems to consist of concept albums. But I know their discography so well, I managed to choose my personal favourites quite fast. May not be the concensus 'best' songs, but that wasn't the point, now, was it?

Judas Priest

- Rock Hard Ride Free

- Cathedral Spires

- Grinder

- The Sentinel

- Savage

On Priest: A huge back catalogue: 30+ years of recording and 16 studio albums. But those are my picks.

Iron Maiden

- For the Greater Good of God

- Hallowed Be Thy Name

- Afraid to Shoot Strangers

- Childhood's End

- Aces High

On Maiden: I think I went with a bit too many 'epic' songs I like a lot, instead of just a bit simpler songs that I love. I'm not too happy with that list, but I'm not going to start changing it anymore.

Blind Guardian

- Imaginations from the Other Side

- Time Stands Still

- Born in a Mourning Hall

- Valhalla

- Majesty

On Blind Guardian: I haven't listened to any of their albums for something like a year now, so this wasn't all that easy. But basically, "Imaginations" has my favourite songs and I love the album from beginning to end. I rounded up the list with some other faves. I didn't think about it too much.

Dio

- Holy Diver

- Sunset Superman

- Fever Dreams

- Last in Line

- All the Fools Sailed Away

By this time, making the list is getting a bit boring already. I didn't know it would get this difficult. Of all five artists, Dio was the hardest to choose five songs from. Again, a big back catalogue, and lots of awesome single songs. I didn't feel right leaving out some of my all-time favourite songs, like Egypt or Rainbow in the Dark, but I feel better now after I mentioned them here.
