My five - Anirudh Srinivasan
Red Hot Chili Peppers
My Friends
A song for many moods and feelings, it’s a song which can get you into depression or out of it. The song recollects bassist Flea’s difficult times when he was going through his post-divorce period.
Iron Maiden
Dance of Death
A song that sends chills down your spine everytime you listen to it. A song with unforgettable lyrics and lead work, by far the most under-rated Iron Maiden song ever.
Led Zeppelin
Kashmir
One of the earliest odd-time signature songs, it was written over a period of three years dating back to 1973. The awesome riffs along with the beautiful use of the violin is one of the main attractions of this song.
Rush
Tom Sawyer
This music-defining song of the 1980s, which was inspired by the fictional literary character is arguably the band’s most popular song. It heavily revolves around Geddy Lee’s work on the synthesiser and on various drumming patterns expressed by Niel Peart.
Suzanne Vega
Tom’s Diner
The song is about a restaurant in New York and has one of the most attractive tunes ever. It featured in an album of different variations of the same song. Suzanne Vega’s brilliance shines through in this track
Those that almost made it
Dream Theater: Metropolis
Meshuggah:
New Millennium Cyanide Christ
Megadeth: Tornado of Souls
Eluveitie: Inis Mona
