I disagree...

1)Love And Peace Or Else
2)Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
3)Fast Cars
4)Crumbs From Your Table
5)City Of Blinding Lights/Original Of The Species
6)One Step Closer
Those are the greats
7)A Man And A Woman
8)Miracle Drug
9)Vertigo
10)Yahweh
11)All Because Of You

It's interesting that you put Love and Peace or Else at number 1. I want to like this song more. I think the riff is amazing, but somehow I wish they would've used it more. I seem to always be comparing this song to things like 'Iron Man' by Black Sabbath. You know great riff rocking songs that incorporated the riff throughout the song and then added a great lead part to enhance the song. Currently, I find the song kind of amusing because of the galloping Middle Eastern cowboy feel of the love and peace message. The riff brings the or else hammer down by sounding like a tank rolling into town and that's pretty good. I'm just not sure who's supposed to be driving that tank, though (America?, The West?, Other Arab nations?) It's probably just righteousness. I'm reserving final judgement on this song until I hear it live.
