Best Budgie Songs

Budgie, a 70's Welsh Classic Rock band has been so underrated and has not received the media coverage deserved. They have been very influential on some of our more successful bands who have covered their songs such as Soundgarden, Iron Maiden & Mettalica among others.
The Top Ten
1 Breadfan

By accident I came across Breadfan on you tube. How come I never heard of them. Zep. Floyd, Stones, Beatles, Yes, csny. I would say Budgie is not as good as these bands, not even close but, nobody is. They belong with the likes of rush, triumph. Still not as good as either of these two. But the song Breadfan, when putting together a list of songs that kick ass Breadfan belongs.

53 years old and thought I heard all rock. How did I miss miss band. But thanks to Dave Mustaine book, I have now found one of the best raw rock bands ever. Love um

Good melody. Good band. Good riff. Great solo. Maybe from the greatest heavy metal songs of 70's.

A pure classic!

2 Parents

These are some of the best lyrics that I think they have ever written. So good.

If you want to know how to play the perfect guitar solo, listen to this.

Tony Bourge has a unique & emotive guitar sound, which is put to full use in this song...AWESOME.

This is Budgie at their finest.

3 Can't See My Feelings
4 Melt the Ice Away

This is a good song. Almost as good as Breadfan.

5 Guts
6 Crash Course In Brain Surgery

Best driving song ever!

Wicked Bass line!

Amazing song!

7 Gunslinger
8 Who Do You Want For Your Love
9 Wildfire
10 Napoleon Bona Part 1 & 2

Epic. Mellow start but stick around for the payoff...

Perfect balance between Soft and Heavy

Metal masterpiece from as early as 1975

Best song from their best album.

The Contenders
11 Homicidal Suicidal

Just listened to this - great, pulsing song! It lacks a chorus though, verse lyrics are ok but not memorable. Really good and catchy riff though: the best part of the song in my opinion

12 Slipaway

From Bandolier (best album)

13 Turned to Stone

Oh come on 25! this song should be at least in the top 5

14 I Ain't No Mountain
15 Rolling Home Again
16 Zoom Club

One of the pioneer New Wave Of British Heavy Metal songs.

17 Breaking All the House Rules

Budgie is a far better band than most people think. This track is a proof.
