    Do you know what it's like to fall in the mud and get kicked... in the head... with an iron boot? Of course you don't, no one does. It never happens. Sorry, Ted, that's a dumb question... skip that.

    Any song with Ed and his ukulele.

    I'm torn between Whipping, Spin the Black Circle and Habit on which I would vote as the heaviest.

    Funny, the difference between 'fast' and 'heavy'. Are there PJ songs that are heavy, but not fast? I think about Zeppelin and their ability to be heavy without being fast. Dazed and Confused is a super heavy song (not particularly fast) but Achilles Last Stand is very fast, but not particularly heavy. It was the beauty of zeppelin. Before them, (and Sabbath), heavy just meant louder. They changed the meaning.

    So are there PJ songs heavy, but not fast?

    I don't think of many PJ songs being heavy. Punk, fast, rock...yes, but not heavy like a Black Sabbath.

    blood is heavy as hell in the chorus, but is everyone forgetting during the verse it is a funk groove? chica bwa bwha....
    Heavy in the Zep/Sabbath manner I would say Not for You or maybe even All or None..acoustic or not, that sound is weighty
    For heavy in the modern sense (hard, loud) I would say Lukin. classic 2 power chords and full out vocals
    Lukin into Not For You takes the cake because it has elements of both styles of heavy.

    really surprised nobody said Porch...
