Songs that make you feel like kickin ass & takin names
For me, Soundgarden's "Rusty Cage" and RATM's "Take the Power Back" and "Testify".

What about you?

8. Right now Motorhead's "Killers"
The order is for murder
And we’ve been there before
The men in black are coming back
To Serve the killing Floor

No pity, No surrender
We take no prisoners
We spare no brave defender
No mercy, No quarter here

The Killers
Will show you flame and sword
We are The Killers
Enough to make your backbone shake
The Killers
Enough to make your stupid faces quiver
And The Killers long to make your life

The sun beats down like thunder
We ride to meet the foe
The clash of steel and leather
The only song we know

No pardon, No Quarter
We own to no compassion
We glory in the slaughter
No mercy, We fetch you death

The Killers
We are the ones foretold
We are The Killers
We do not yearn for gold
We are The Killers
We know the wrath of battle
We are The Killers
And The Killers will destroy your life

The devil rides to glory
We hasten by his side
A legendary story
Told by fireside

No mercy, Let all hope fade
We glory in the slaughter
Our badge the Ace of Spades
No mercy, We bring the sword

The Killers
We murder you in battle
We are Killers
We ride you down like cattle
We are Killers
We fight our way to legend
We are Killers
And The Killers love to see you die

Killers
We kill you till you die
We are The Killers
We hold our banners high
We are The Killers
We hang you out to die
We are The Killers
And all we bring is death to life

16. Orgasmatron!
I am the one, Orgasmatron, the outstretched grasping hand
My image is of agony, my servants rape the land
Obsequious and arrogant, clandestine and vain
Two thousand years of misery, of torture in my name
Hypocrisy made paramount, paranoia the law
My name is called religion, sadistic, sacred whore.

I twist the truth, I rule the world, my crown is called deceit
I am the emperor of lies, you grovel at my feet
I rob you and I slaughter you, your downfall is my gain
And still you play the sycophant and revel in you pain
And all my promises are lies, all my love is hate
I am the politician, and I decide your fate

I march before a martyred world, an army for the fight
I speak of great heroic days, of victory and might
I hold a banner drenched in blood, I urge you to be brave
I lead you to your destiny, I lead you to your grave
Your bones will build my palaces, your eyes will stud my crown
For I am Mars, the God of war, and I will cut you down. :headbang:

12. I've got 2 lists....
Edited on Tue Apr-11-06 11:36 AM by Bridget Burke
My "Chick List"

* "Stop Your Sobbing" by The Pretenders. Also almost all of that first album. (Yes, I know Ray Davies wrote that song. And The Great Nick Lowe produced.)

* "Never Say Never" by Romeo Void. And many of Debra Iyall's other songs. A true sarcastic bitch--& I say that with great respect.

* "Why D'ya Do It" by Marianne Faithful. The best revenge is producing interesting music long after your rich ex-boyfriend has become irrelevant. (The last Mick Jagger solo album?)

Other:

* "Fortunate Son" by Creedence. No explanation necessary.

* "Refugee" by Tom Petty.

* "Gimme Shelter" by the Stones. (Hey, I loved them for a long time.)

(I'd better stop now--I left out Steve Earle, Joe Ely, Doug Sahm...)

20. Patti Smith's live cover of "My Generation" on "Horses"
She does it again in the 2005 live reprise of "Horses" and ends chanting something like "we had fucking dreams man and we created George Bush. New generations, rise up. The world is yours so take to the streets and change it."
