METALLICA-Fronter James Hetfield, BLACK SABBATH-Sänger Ozzy Osbourne und VELVET REVOLVER-Gitarrist Slash haben im amerikanischen Rolling Stone ihre zehn Lieblingssongs vorgestellt:

»James Hetfield:

01. Free Bird – LYNYRD SKYNYRD

James Hetfield: "Nothing tops this workingman's ballad. 'Free Bird' fit my life for the first 20 years on the road — not really getting too attached to stuff, living life for the moment and moving on."

02. Stairway To Heaven – LED ZEPPELIN

James Hetfield: "When I first got a guitar, I figured out the first couple of fingerings to this, and I ran around the house saying, 'Check it out — I can play this!' My family was like, 'Where's the rest of the song?'"

03. Jailhouse Rock – ELVIS PRESLEY

James Hetfield: "I remember seeing that video of him jumping around behind bars with all his buddies. It encapsulates rebellion, which is really just misguided creativity."

04. Behind Blue Eyes – THE WHO

James Hetfield: "This song had all that teen angst bubbling under it. It's about asking for help but not really wanting it. Reminds me a lot of me."

05. Candle In The Wind – ELTON JOHN

James Hetfield: "'Saturday Night's All Right For Fighting' was more my style, but few songs can top this melody."

06. God Only Knows – THE BEACH BOYS

James Hetfield: "I got on a BEACH BOYS kick again about six months ago. I gew up in Southern California; to me, this songs speaks to a higher power."

07. Yesterday – THE BEATLES

James Hetfield: "It instantly connected with me. It makes you think, but not too gard."

08. Black Sabbath – BLACK SABBATH

James Hetfield: "This song scared the shit out of me. It's beyond heavy."

09. Smells Like Teen Spirit – NIRVANA

James Hetfield: "When all that Eighthies hair metal was getting overproduced, NIRVANA came along with this thrashy garage sound and a huge hook. It was what music needed."

10. The Boys Are Back In Town – THIN LIZZY

James Hetfield: "Phil Lynott was never afraid to write from the heart, even if it was a little corny. THIN LIZY inspired a lot of METALLICA's guitar harmonies."


Ozzy Osbourne:

01. A Day In The Life – THE BEATLES

Ozzy Osbourne: "It takes me back to a magical time in my life."

02. Imagine – JOHN LENNON

Ozzy Osbourne: "This song will never get old for me."

03. Live And Let Die – PAUL MCCARTNEY AND WINGS

Ozzy Osbourne: "A fucking great song. I Love it!"

04. Money – PINK FLOYD

Ozzy Osbourne: "Reminds me of my LSD days. I'm glad I survived"

05. Mississippi Queen – MOUNTAIN

Ozzy Osbourne: "This one brings back memories of my very first U.S. tour with BLACK SABBATH."

06. Hey Jude – THE BEATLES

Ozzy Osbourne: "Hands down one of the greatest songs ever written."

07. Yesterday – THE BEATLES

Ozzy Osbourne: "I would have loved to have heard the working-title version, 'Scrambled Eggs'."

08. Don’t' Let Me Be Understood – THE ANIMALS

Ozzy Osbourne: "It's always been a favorite of mine."

09. Dazed And Confused – LED ZEPPELIN

Ozzy Osbourne: "My world stood still the first time I heard this."

10. Goodbye Yellow Brick Road – ELTON JOHN

Ozzy Osbourne: "Great melody. Great lyrics. Great song. I love Elton John!"


Slash:

01. Back In The Saddle – AEROSMITH

Slash: "I heard this in junior high at the house of this girl I was trying to date. She put it on & I completely forgot about her."

02. The Ocean - LED ZEPPELIN

Slash: "A great ZEPPELIN riff."

03. Helter Skelter - THE BEATLES

Slash: "It's got that screaming British hard-rock sound."

04. Can't You Hear Me Knocking - THE ROLLING STONES

Slash: "This defines the STONES for me."

05. Down Payment Blues - AC/DC

Slash: "The chord progression on this is just great."

06. Won't Get Fooled Again - THE WHO

Slash: "Arena rock at its best. THE WHO were so before their time."

07. Tie Your Mother Down – QUEEN

Slash: "I used to play this with one of those ridiculous old-school Panasonic tape recorders pressed to my ear."

08. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath - BLACK SABBATH

Slash: "One of the heaviest riffs ever recorded."

09. Magic Carpet Ride – STEPPENWOLF

Slash: "This is an awesome song, even if nobody understands it."
