    Ozzy Osbourne -- Crazy Train
    Tool -- Parabol/Parabola (I can count two tracks as one song, right? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->)
    Yngwie Malmsteen -- Far Beyond the Sun
    Guns n' Roses -- Sweet Child O' Mine
    Black Sabbath -- War Pigs / Luke's Wall

    Although "The Hollow" is pretty high up there. Nice choice, Nem. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    So High Fidelity was a crappy book too and not just a crappy movie? More reason to support burning books. :) I want the two hours of my life back that I wasted from watching the movie. :P anyway...

    Minibosses - Contra
    Minibosses - Castlevania 2
    Minibosses - Metroid/Kraid
    Virt - Super Metroid Mega Mix

    Notice a pattern? :)

    Actually, the book was quite good. And there before the movie.



    Anyway, to everyone listing Rammstein songs: Here's a stake. Tie yourself up while I get the matches.

    If you want some <i>good</i> German music, try 'Die ?rzte - Schrei nach Liebe'.

    You're all so very wrong. It was Bohemian Rhapsody.

    And I really only started listening to NIN a month or so ago. Heard one really good song, got a bunch of others, and ended up liking most of them. They're quite good to listen to when making dingy industrial style maps.

    die arzte is horrible. gg knorkator, oomph!, megaherz and of course, the best - rammstein.

    NIN owns seriously hard.

    5 favorite songs? Ouch, that's hard.

    Hrm. I don't think I can just pick five. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Anything by NIN, Vast, Led Zeppelin, Queen... I've been taking quite a liking to Chop Suey and Sugar by System of a Down, lately. Radiohead is good too... like High and Dry, and I'm a Creep. I'm so indecisive.

    It really depends on which song. By the language of Snorland.com, I assume that you're not German, which makes pretty much 90% of their songs unenjoyable because they really depend heavily on the lyrics (best example being 'Rebell' or 'Punk ist...').
    I picked 'Schrei nach Liebe' because it's a nice, fast rocksong. Plus, I have yet to find the person who can't deduce the meaning of the refrain...

    Nice choices Tycho. Anything John Williams is good, especially since they almost all sound the same. (it's true, get the Indiana Jones {any} and play it in place of a Star Wars {any} soundtrack.

    I still say Samuel Barber > Anything you fools (j/k) pick.
