Rock songs that peg your meters

I usually never listen too loud to blues, jazz, classical or even metal but some rock songs were meant to be listened to at full tilt. You know, the louder you go the better they sound and get your blood boiling so at the risk of loosing your hearing and blowing up your speakers you keep turning them up and up until it starts to peg those blue McIntosh meters and it feels great. :D So what are some of you favorite ones? Some of my notoriously loud ones are:

Van Halen: Jump
AC/DC: For those about to rock.
Motley Crue: Shout at the devil.
Guns and Roses: Welcome to the Jungle
Cinderella: Hot and Bothered
Dire Straits: Money for Nothing
Def Leppard: Rock Brigade
Metallica: Enter Sandman
Poison: Ride the wind
Scorpions: Rock you like a Hurricane
Whitesnake: Still of the Night
Billy Squier: Everybody wants you
Judas Priest: Screaming for Vengeance
Sammy Hagar: I can't drive 55
Tom Petty: Refugee
The Who: Who are you
The Police: Don't stand so close to me
Rolling Stones: I can't get no satisfaction
Genesis: Abacab
Eric Clapton: Cocaine
Eddie Money: I think I'm in love
Bryan Adams: Summer of '69
Joan Jett: I love Rock 'N Roll
Billy Idol: Rebel Yell
Ozzy: Crazy Train
Rush: Tom Sawyer
Bon Jovi: You give love a bad name
ZZ Top: Sharp dressed man
Iron Maiden: Invaders
Queen: Another one bites the dust
Journey: Send her my love
JC Mellencamp: Hurts so good
Duran Duran: Rio
Twisted Sister: I wanna Rock
Eurythimics: Sweet dreams
Robert Palmer: Bad case of loving you
Culture Club: Kharma Kameleon. :D (yeah right!)

Phew, many more but I am too tired to think and type. :D How about your favorites?
