Top 1000 Songs #670-#661

#670 - "Burn The Witch" - Queens Of The Stone Age - Lullabies To Paralyze - The fifth of sixteen Queens songs on the countdown, "Burn The Witch" is a trippy guitar-driven alt-rock classic from the band's best album.

#669 - "Power Tripping" - Monster Magnet - Powertrip - The second and highest-charting Monster Magnet song, "Power Tripping" is about as cool as heavy metal got in the 90's with an intense chorus and great guitar work.

#668 - "Red Right Hand" - Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds - Let Love In - The first and only Nick Cave song on the list, "Red Right Hand" is the go-to soundtrack song when a creepy ambiance is required.

#667 - "Bad To The Bone" - George Thorogood - Bad To The Bone - The first of two Thorogood songs on the countdown, "Bad To The Bone" is by far the most famous blues rock song of the 80's and features one of the all-time great guitar riffs.

#666 - "Close To Me" - The Cure - Close To Me - The third of six Cure songs in the top 1000, "Close To Me" is one of the band's most up-tempo songs and features a great chorus.

#665 - "Beginning To See The Light" - The Velvet Underground - The fifth of seven Velvet Underground songs on the countdown, "Beginning" is one of the band's later hits as they started to venture closer to mainstream rock than they had previously.

#664 - "Jesus Of Suburbia" - Green Day - American Idiot - The fifth of nine Green Day songs on the list, "Jesus Of Suburbia" is the centerpiece of the American Idiot album. It's really about 9 really short songs strung together into one really long epic, with each song a dramatic change from the previous and the whole being greater than the sum of it's parts.

#663 - "Fluorescent Adolescent" - The Arctic Monkeys - Favourite Worst Nightmare - The second of three Arctic Monkeys songs on the countdown, "Fluorescent" is the best song on the band's second album and tells the story of an aging hipster coming to terms with maturity. It's kind of like a "Thrash Unreal" that you can dance to.

#662 - "Starlight" - Muse - Black Holes And Revelations - The fifth and highest-ranking song by Muse, "Starlight" is an intense and sweeping indie pop song that sounds like Radiohead cranked to 11, featuring a sweeping chorus and great drumwork throughout.

#661 - "Prison Song" - System Of A Down - Toxicity - The third of four SOAD songs on the list, "Prison Song" is the heaviest song that the band has ever recorded and one of many great songs off of their masterpiece Toxicity as it serves as the best indictment yet on America's drug policy.
