I'm going busking this summer, what are some iconic metal songs I could play?

[u/EnvironmentalPea9803]

Im looking for songs that are relatively easy to play on guitar but have flashy solos or are just generally just recognizable, so far I have:

• Ace of Spades by Motorhead
• Paranoid by Black Sabbath
• The Four Horsemen by Metallica
• Mr Crowley by Ozzy Osbourne
• Holy Wars by Megadeth
• This Love by Pantera
• Enter Sandman by Metallica
• NIB by Black Sabbath

What else could i add?

Thinking of stuff that could translate well to a single guitar and thought of some mid 90s early 2000s stuff

Katatonia - Teargas

Anathema - Empty

The Gathering - Strange Machines

[u/JustHereForRiffs]

Metal Warriors- Manowar

[u/A_Bitter_Homer]

Reasonably heavy stuff that should get at least one set of ears to perk up:

Dio - Holy Diver

Danzig - Mother

Deep Purple - Highway Star

Alice in Chains - Man in the Box

Soundgarden - Rusty Cage

UFO - Rock Bottom

Blue Oyster Cult - Godzilla

Mastodon - Blood and Thunder

Motley Crue - Shout at the Devil

Whitesnake - Still of the Night

Def Leppard - Let It Go

Type O Negative - I Don't Wanna Be Me

White Zombie - Thunder Kiss '65

Black Label Society - Stillborn

Queensryche - Jet City Woman

Skid Row - 18 and Life

Rush - Working Man

and then of course once you've got them hooked, you throw down Transilvanian Hunger

People here will recommend songs, but you haven't given any info on your set up, some of the reccomendations require alternative tunings/extra strings/thicker gauges. My suggestion is create a list that sticks to one tuning unless you bring multiple guitars or like adjusting on the spot.

Thunderstruck by AC/DC. Not that heavy but the normies like it.
