1. Keep the faith - I usually listen to a live version from 1993 Stockholm which is in SBD quality.KTF has been my favorite song since a few weeks,i simply love the energy of the song,the guitar,vocals,bass
2. Edge of a Broken Heart - I discovered this song a month ago and I really love it,i think it could've easily replace some tracks on SWW.
3. I'll Sleep When I'm Dead - I rarely listen to the studio version,usually i listen to different live versions from 93-95.This song gives me so much energy and simply makes me feel so good and happy and i really like to sing along  ).
4. Bad Medicine - Most of the time i get up from my chair to jump and dance around during this song.Sometimes I listen to live versions from the 90's which include Shout as a medley.
5. Bitter Wine - This is one of my favorite songs.I love the whole atmosphere of the song,Jons voice is so nice and pleasent and the acoustic guitar and piano are just perfect.My favorite part is when he says ''Love left me stranded at the station and the last train's gone by" i really love his voice during that verse, i really don't know why.
6. Wanted Dead or Alive - I think this doesn't need an explanation.
7. These Days - This is clearly one of their most underrated songs.I find the lyrics very profound sometimes,especially when I'm sad or in a bad mood.
8. Dry County - Epic guitar solo and drum solo,epic vocals and epic lyrics.Enough said
9. Lay Your Hands on Me - Great hard rock/heavy metal song.I usually listen to a version from 1993 Milton Keynes which is in high quality audio.I prefer that version cause they play it in a higher key or something like that...they play it faster.
10. Backdoor To Heaven - This is a demo from their NJ album which is in...let's say ''decent'' quality on youtube;there is a guy who fixed the song and it's played in the original key and the vocals and instruments are alot clearer.Anyways,I loved this song since I first heard it,that guitar intro got me from the second I heard it and Jons vocals are so rough and great,lyrically I think it's about a guy who realises how much he loves his lover that he just lost and is trying really hard to get back with her.
* Special mention - My Guitar Lies Bleeding in My Arms - This is definitely their most pesimistic and dark song.I really enjoy listening to it even when I'm very happy cause it kinda takes me away and makes me thing about the negative things in the world.Oh yeah, I always try to sing that last chorus and end up screaming like a retard and probably making my neighbours ears bleed  ).

Hi, thanks for filling this in, I wasn't expecting any answers anymore. Anyways, I like reading the explanations. Anyways, because you mention mostly listening to live versions: do you also like switching between different live versions? For example, when it comes to "It's My Life", I switch between the studio version, an acoustic live version, a live version with Bruce Springsteen and some regular live versions.
I see that we disagree on the songs in our top 10, but I can definitely see where you're coming from. What do you think of my top 10, and my explanations?
