SoaD had some many fucking outstanding songs. I'm not sure I have a favorite album of theirs but I have a dozen or so songs that I'll still listen to and rock the fuck out.
The first two records are fantastic. After that it's all downhill.
We've had this discussion too many times. But BYOB is still my all-time SoaD favorite. That song fucking GETS me.
I listen to that song at least a couple times a week.

Songs that impacted on rock radio and made Billboard's 1994 year end singles list:

John Mellencamp, Wild Night
Collective Soul, Shine
Crash Test Dummies, Mmm Mmm Mmm
Meatloaf, I'd Do Anything for Love
10,000 Maniacs, Because the Night
Cranberries, Linger
Gin Blossoms, Found Out About You

Bruce Springsteen, Streets of Philedelphia
Aerosmith, Crazy
Aerosmith, Amazing

Tom Petty, Mary Jane's Last Dance
Bon Jovi, Always

Some other rock radio #1's from that same year:
Pincushion, ZZ Top
Deuces are Wild, Aerosmith

Van Halen's Don't Tell Me What Love Can Do missed the list be mere weeks. Shucks.
All songs that I dearly loved at the time. Tremendously LOVED at the time. And three of those are still in fairly heavy rotation.

Man, I loved Aerosmith in the 90s.

Also, Because the Night is a gorgeous cover.

Technically 89. But so the fuck what. Permanent Vacation through Nine Lives was a helluva run. All those albums were staples until Ok Computer happened and ruined/fixed everything.

you guys can't just dismiss a whole movement of music as dumb and shitty and then immediately turn around and start praising aerosmith
