Top Ten Cheesy Metal Songs that Aren't Power-, Progressive-, Symphonic-, Melodic Death-, Folk- or Gothic Metal Songs

The Top Ten

1 Tornado of Souls - Megadeth

I honestly cannot see how it's "cheesy" in any way. Maybe the topic of the song is, but Megadeth makes it sound cool.

2 Crazy Train - Ozzy Osbourne

3 Sabbath Bloody Sabbath - Black Sabbath

4 Fast As a Shark - Accept

Only the chorus is cheesy, the song itself is still quite heavy.

5 Indians - Anthrax

6 Gimme Chocolate!! - Babymetal

Come on, this list would not be complete without a kawaii metal song. As much as I enjoy Babymetal's music...the lyrics are just...

7 Weekend Warrior - Iron Maiden

8 See You in Hell - Grim Reaper

9 Heavy Metal - Judas Priest

10 Enter Sandman - Metallica

Not so high because it's not that cheesy in its own way, only a bit more mainstream than Metallica were before.

The Contenders

11 Rainbow in the Dark - Dio

12 Don't Tread on Me - Metallica

Have you heard the lyrics? Metallica straight up went from anti-war (examples: one, ajfa) to "to secure peace is to prepare for war" just 1 album later. A modern social studies class in the US would play this every day.

13 Strange Wings - Savatage
