I love Toto "Won't Hold You Back". I for some reason like it by a nose over Africa and Rosanna. But all of them are awesome.

i'm firmly in the 'hold the line' camp for toto

i think it depends on when you fell in love with a band to some degree as well.

99.999999% of other RHCP songs are better than that 'under the bridge' crap and yet that's what everyone knows when you mention the band.

Don’t think this was in their top 20-30 songs but is my favorite.

There are so many great songs on Ten, but “Once” has always been overshadowed by the radio standards (Jeremy, Even Flow, Alive, etc).

I’m not sure how many Staind fans are on here, but Fade is my favorite song of all time.

On Break the Cycle. Same album as It’s Been Awhile. Fade gets a fraction of the attention It’s Been Awhile does.

Hungry Like the Wolf and Rio overshadowed this gem favorite of mine at the end of the Rio album.

Appetite for Destruction- my favorite songs are It’s So Easy and Think About You. Needless to say, they are massively overshadowed.

Holy Water by Soundgarden is a great call!
