Admittedly I'm not a fan of Def Leppard at all but my brother has loved them since Pyromania so I was frequently exposed to their music growing up. That said, I liked the album Slang best overall. Their best songs IMO include Truth? and Work It Out. I despise their ballads and songs, Pour Some Sugar On Me and Make Love Like A Man which again IMO, have some of the cheesiest lyrics ever! I hope you don't consider this post a threadcrap as I truly do like the two songs I mentioned first.

I think Def Leppard hit their stride with Pyromania, and peaked with Hysteria (which I think could serve as a greatest hits album by itself). I'm going to have to try really hard not to pull five songs from Hysteria alone.

Women (definately one of the best DF songs)

2. Too Late for Love
3. Desert Song/Fractured Love
4. Women
5. Another Hit And Run

I wanted to throw on Rock Brigade, but I'm not sure it's good enough to place top 5.

It's a toss up between Pyromania and Hysteria.

I don't think Hysteria had one bad song in the whole cd.

Have You Ever Needed Someone So Bad?

Just what I could think of right off the top of my head...

Hysteria was my favorite CD of theirs....well Vault too, but I don't think that counts because it was a "greatest hits" type thing.

Damn. I've never seen a poll closed before. I'd say High and Dry is number one from the list.
