Instead of just replying with something along the lines of 'How about choosing music that people have actually heard of', I Youtube'd all of those songs that I could find. All I heard was annoying noise.

Well you are welcome to your opinion. But I don't think it holds up in the larger musical world.
Spin magazine named Achtung Baby as the best album of the past 25 years.
Coldplay, Keane, Snow Patrol, The Killers, Hold Steady, Kings of Leon, The Call, BoDeans, Midnight Oil, The Church, and Big Country are just a few acts greatly influenced by U2. You may not have heard of many of them but a huge part of the late 80s and early 90s rock scene was influenced by U2's
I think you guys are too distracted by the spectacle they have become and have lost focus on their music, especially the early stuff.
Not arguing there - but her most recent CD is tanking so we'll see if her career has legs or not.
Queens of the Stone Age - Go with the Flow, You Can't Quit Me Baby, The Bronze
Metallica: Master of Puppets, Creeping Death, One
No Dark Star?
I was scratching my brain for the GD, but it's damn near impossible.
best I could come up with:
Dark Star (or maybe That's it for the Other One), Ripple, Jack Straw (or Black Throated Wind).
It's tough, b/c I feel the need to, of course, throw in a classic GD-defining piece--like DS or The Other One, then one needs classic Jerry & Hunter--Ripple. then it seems like a Bob Weir tune with JP Barlow is in order (though Jack Straw is also Robert Hunter).
of course, you end up leaving out the classic PigPen tunes, (like Lovelight, though it isn't a GD original) which is a bit of a crime, as well. :\
I think it's that in a forum full of techies, there is a heavy influence towards metal.
it is hard for many of them to grasp R&R and pop, and they assume an undue influence towards metal, which is only influential towards its own genre, especially these crazy obscure bands that sit in some nebulously defined corner of metal, like "hard, black-death southern danish basement metal."
I swear, I haven't heard of 70% of the bands listed here.
id put "You Think I Ain't Worth A Dollar, But I Feel Like A Millionaire " on there over Bronze
The problem with qotsa is that it's really about 4 different bands. Or maybe they should just be called the Josh Homme Experience.

I'm going to have to disagree with a previous poster on the best Zep:
Stairway to Heaven
No Quarter
Good Times, Bad Times
I feel its important to catch both the hard hitting rock and the "out there" side of things
Wierd Al - Dare to Be Stupid, Gump, White & Nerdy
Tom Chochrane - All the King's Men, Big League, Victory Day
Foo Fighters - Big Me, The Pretender, Everlong
Flogging Molly - Drunken Lullabies, The Rare Ould Times, Swagger
Dream Theater - Wait For Sleep, Metropolis, The Best of Times
Silver Jews - Sleeping is the only Love, We Are Real, Hot as Hell
