1) GUNS N' ROSES - SWEET CHILD O' MINE
Written in minutes and with a riff born out of a guitar warm up exercise, this song most definitely had inauspicious beginnings. It remains the greatest example of why rock ballads don't have to suck.

2) AC/DC - BACK IN BLACK
Emerging from an event so catastrophic that it would have destroyed lesser bands, AC/DC's highest placing song in this poll is the greatest tribute they could have paid to their former singer, Bon Scott - celebratory, wild and a killer riff that never gets old

3) LED ZEPPELIN - ROCK AND ROLL
The closest thing to a pop song that Zeppelin ever did - three and a half minutes of raw rock fire-power which does exactly what it says on the tin. It also has the greatest drum intro to any song EVER.

4) AC/DC - WHOLE LOTTA ROSIE
The greatest song ever written about an overweight Tasmanian lady who's good in the sack? You bet. It's also the most concise example of what AC/DC do best: fun, loud, hard rock and roll.

5) BLACK SABBATH - PARANOID
Another example of a song which was born in a moment of magic. Written in minutes solely to make up the numbers on the band's second album this has become their most enduring and recognisable song.

6) MOTORHEAD - ACE OF SPADES
Furiously fast and frenetic rock n roll which, when played loud enough, has the tendency to make your brain dance around inside your skull like bouncy ball... but in a good way.

7) DEEP PURPLE - HIGHWAY STAR
The sound of a band who have nothing left to prove. Apparently written in minutes on a tour bus, this remains one of the all time great driving songs. It is also pretty notable for containing not only an enormous keyboard solo but also an outrageous guitar solo from Ritchie Blackmore.

8) RUSH - THE SPIRIT OF RADIO
The song which put Rush into the UK singles might have been a loveletter to great radio but it was also a prophetic warning about the commercialism creeping into the medium. While the song is the band's biggest single, it's no less complex or arresting than the rest of their work - musically prodigious and melodically profound, it's everything that rock should be.

9) AC/DC - HIGHWAY TO HELL
If anyone ever asks you to "explain rock music" then - without saying anything - dig out your copy of Highway To Hell, turn the volume up loud and press play. That moment when the drums first kick in remains one of the most thrilling in the history of music.

10) JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE - ALL ALONG THE WATCHTOWER
The only cover to make the top 30, Hendrix took ownership of Dylan's hit single and essentially created the blueprint for hard rock.
