Matchup Monkey knew he was leaving plenty of stuff out. Feel free to mention it – the finest of the Delilah songs will make their way into a Biblical Wives edition, the best of the Samson songs will make it into a Strongmen edition.

Sorry, I'm abstaining from voting – these song's aren't bad, but the Dead's song is better.

And wasn't Tommy Shaw in Styx?
