#8 - c'mon people...a great song and so way different from their norm
and am a big Def Leppard fan also! - that's what mega wattage on the stereo was for:)

They only had one song that I like in the whole list and that's 45% similar? How's that work exactly?
I came up 63% similar - I just hit "Skip it!" on all the heavy metal songs because I've never been a metal fan.
I've never really been into the whole "power ballad" thing, unless the song has a smokin' guitar lead to help it along, and even then, it helps to have an upbeat theme.
