...a tie.
As most would have predicted, this forum loves Priest and Sabbath pretty much equally.
Rush and Queen finish in a tie for third.

Metallica and Dio finish in the top eight this year, replacing Led Zeppelin and Rainbow from 2012.
Pink Floyd and Megadeth retain their top eight spots.

Next time I do this it will be Survivor style to see if that mixes up the results.

Thanks for playing.
 
For me it's between Queen and Priest. Queen is more of an every/any mood band, and one that usually can improve my mood. If I'm in a metal mood though Priest is the far more obvious choice, and there's less Priest songs that I will skip. I don't think I can actually pick a favourite, at different times I would give a different answer.
 
Thanks for hosting!

Rush is my favorite with Floyd as a close second.
 
Tough choice, but I'd say my favorite overall is Metallica. I'd vote for Dio in a heartbeat if my vote encompassed his entire career.
 
Sabbath and Priest didn't go up against any of these bands did they?

Edit: Nevermind, they did.
 
Of all the bands voted for though none have more than 2 votes, so everyone has a different favourite but a common "secondary" favourite. Each time they came up against another band there was always 1-2 people who preferred the other, but that's it.
 
I would vote:

1. Black Sabbath with Dio
2. Queen
3. Black Sabbath with Ozzy
4. Led Zeppelin
5. Pink Floyd
6. Rainbow with Dio
7. Judas Priest
8. Metallica
9. Rush
10. Dio
(Megadeth and non-Dio Rainbow would be nowhere near my top 10.)

RJD sang for 30% of the top 10 bands. 'Nuff said.
 
Floyd - Sabbath - Metallica if I was to choose today. I like Sabbath lots...but I have Ozzy nightmares.
