That’s The Way – Led-Zeppelin
Let It Bleed – The Rolling Stones
I Want You (She’s So Heavy) – The Beatles
Liar – Queen
Rats In The Cellar – Aerosmith
Long Live Rock – The Who
Strange Kind Of Woman – Deep Purple
Change Of Heart – Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers
Never Say Die – Black Sabbath
Hear About It Later – Van Halen

Some awesome choices there. Only things I would say is that I've seen Deep Purple 4 times between 2004 and 2012 and heard Strange Kind of Woman at every show and I think it appears on most best of's and live albums, and Rats in the Cellar gets played a hell of a lot more than shitloads of Aerosmith's earlier classics. It's one of my favourite Aerosmith songs.

Hear About It Later was played quite a lot on this years Van Halen tour. One of my favourite VH tunes as well. Very difficult to gauage VH though because Dave was solo until 2007, 23 years between VH performances and Hagar never did much of Roth's stuff anyway.

Sabbath's setlists these days are based purely around what Ozzy can handle. That's why theres no Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. Never Say Die would probably finish him off :heheh: though personally there are many more Sabbath songs I'd prefer to hear over Never Say Die. Symptom of the Universe [in Full], Lord of This World, Hole in The Sky, Evil Woman...

The Plimsouls had a minor hit with their classic song, Million Miles Away. But IMO, they should've had another hit with this song. It's got heart and just sounds timeless. Hasn't aged a bit in almost 30 years.

I can't speak much for Queen other than the seven seas of rye or radio gaga.

As for Aerosmith I agree. Also "you see me crying" and "last child."
