I would have voted "other" three times, but I could only do it once  Tongue
Comments :

Ozzy Osbourne : I'm not fan of 70's metal ; the guy probably rocked at the time, but was more comic relief than anything ever since the 80s.

AC/DC "You Shook Me All Night Long" : not the best AC/DC song IMO. Highway to hell, Hells bells or Back in black are far better.
   
Iron Maiden "Run To The Hills" : again, correct but not their best. In that era, The number of the beast is the best. Transylvania, too.    

Def Leppard "Photograph"    : cool song, voted for it. But not the best of the album (pyromania), which is the best Def Lep LP ever. Rock rock till you drop, Die hard the hunter and Rock of ages (best song they ever did, and worst video too Cheesy) are better.

Scorpions Did OK metal till 1982 (Blackout), then did "Still loving you", nice cute ballad, but then they were dead... Too bad, you should never do ballads when you're a metal band.

Bon Jovi "You Give Love A Bad Name" : once again, not my fave (wasn't it the song "inspired" by a Bonnie Tyler song ? LOL). Living on a prayer all the way !!!   

Guns N' Roses "Welcome To The Jungle" : One of the best songs ever (going to youtube to listen to it right now)

Vixen "Edge Of A Broken Heart" : Ummmm, quite fake if you ask me. You want female rock ? Go listen to the Runaways instead   (Joan Jett : Queen of rock forever)




And what Huh No Metallica in your poll ?

Agree that Iron Maiden's "Number Of The Beast" is a classic.

Also like "Rock Of Ages" from Def Leppard, though I actually like the video (don't ask).

For Metallica, I could add "For Whom The Bells Toll" or their more popular "Enter Sandman" from the early '90's.

Oh, the video isn't THAT bad, but the part with the plastic double-handed sword is... funny.
