#1 Jimi "Hey Joe!!"
#2 SRV "Boot Hill."
Glad to see another SRV fan around here. I really like that one.
How about:
Janie's Got a Gun - Aerosmith
Goodbye Earl - Dixie Chicks
crap, forgot about Pantera... 'This Love' would work.
how about 'Hurt' by Nine Inch Nails? little bit more poor me instead of revenge i guess.
ooh, Lyle Lovett - 'LA County' "... they turned around and saw me standing in the aisle. i did not say much, stood there watching, as that 45 told them goodbye". that should do it!

Heard it on the radio today and realized that that song is almost 30 years old now...
Yup, end thread.
crap, forgot about Pantera...
"I said I loved but I lied..."
"I'd kill myself for you... I'd kill you for myself..."
Nancy Sinatra - these boots are made for walkin'
Or how about Pink - So what? ...she's got her rock moves and you're a tool!

"No Children" by The Mountain Goats
I promise, the best revenge song. Give it a listen. Here are the first several lyrics:
I hope that our few remaining friends
Give up on trying to save us
I hope we come up with a failsafe plot
to piss of the dumb few that forgave us
I hope the fences we mended
Fall down beneath their own weight
And I hope we hang on past the last exit
I hope it's already too late
and I hope the junkyard a few blocks from here
Someday burns down
And I hope the rising black smoke carries me far away
and I never come back to this town again
in my life
I hope I lie
and tell everyone you were a good wife
and I hope you die
I hope we both die

Cry me a river by Michael Bublé would have been a better choice.

It would be nice to know a little more about why you want to listen to "revenge songs". Maybe we could better make suggesstions if we knew the back story.
Check out:
Surprise! You're Dead - Faith No More
Everything About You - Ugly Kid Joe

Excellent choice! Way ahead of their time for this album. "The Real Thing" and "...And Justice for All" were my first two CD's ever purchased.
Random tidbit: Big Jim (Guitarist with the red frames) was fired over an answering machine.
Lame
^^^ Yeah I really like that album. Of course Epic was the big hit that made them famous, but the rest of the album is good too. I love Falling to Pieces.
Puke by Eminem ... those lyrics should pretty much win the trophy for revenge songs
Yeah, that or "Kim"
Yeah, that or "Kim"
lol ... I hear ya Dan ... I thought about Kim also but went with the tame one Puke
