Top 10 Most Badass Songs
You know those songs that just make you feel invincible? The ones that would be the perfect soundtrack for strutting down the street in slow-motion, all cool and collected? Yeah, those are the ones we're talking about here. Songs that have the power to transform the ordinary into extraordinary with just a few beats or guitar riffs. We're talking about the most badass songs in history.From heavy metal headbangers that have you thrashing around like a wild thing, to the low, thumping bass of hardcore tracks that hit you right in the gut - badass songs come in all shapes and sizes. These are the songs that make your heart beat faster, your blood run hotter, and give you the feeling that you could take on the world and win.
The most badass songs don't just sound great, they also resonate with us on a deeper level. They can be anthems of rebellion, rallying cries for the misunderstood, or simply a declaration of unabashed individuality. They hold the power to elevate our spirits, energize our bodies, and toughen our resolve.
It's about more than just the musicianship, the melody, or the lyrics. It's about the way a song can make you feel, the way it can change your mood, or even your outlook on life. Whether it's through a pounding drum solo, a shredding guitar riff, or a vocalist's soul-searing scream, these songs have that special something that sets them apart.
While this is good, Bullet in the Head is even more kick-ass. I'm listening to it as I type this.
Ace of Spades is a really badass song, unlike a lot of songs put on here, especially the one by Lindsay Lohan. When was the last time you heard Lindsay Lohan sing a song? And really, Shakira and Beyoncé are pop music, not rock. This is the top ten most badass rock songs, if I'm not mistaken.
Not my favorite song from Motörhead but still a kick-ass one. Almost all of their songs have a much better chance of getting here than most of the songs actually on this list, like Born to Raise Hell or Orgasmatron.
Okay, most of the songs here are NOT what you would call BADASS. Ahead of this Motörhead song of true rage as a true badass song would perhaps only be "Bad to the Bone" on this list.

I remember this song from the RuneScape clan war montages. That time was pure bliss.
One of the most badass songs in the world. Instant hype!
Badass. Picture entering a prison yard with hardened criminals alone without a weapon. This is the song to play. Note to people voting on this list: learn the definition of badass, please.
