Hard to choose between "Skating Away" and "Only Solitaire", both of which I find delightful, but in the end "Skating Away" took the prize!

In second and third position: "Back Door Angels" and "Cold Wind to Valhalla" - probably Martin Barre and Barrie Barlow's finest ever moments!

Tough choice - went with "Skating Away..." for no other particular reason than I like it...
He neither drank, smoked, nor rode a bicycle. Living frugally, saving his money, he died early, surrounded by greedy relatives. It was a great lesson to me -- John Barrymore

Pretty good selection. I'll go with "Wond'ring Aloud" - gorgeous. 
New album!

Would've gone for Velvet Green, but, there are so many other top tunes in this list it is impossible to vote. I'm leaning towards Dark Ages somewhat though.

I'm a bit surprised that Crosseyed Mary got so many votes.....compared to some of the  other tracks on the list.
IMHo there are better 'hard rock' tracks on Stand Up and Benefit.

hmm, I don't know "Stand Up".  Nothing on Benefit is on this list is it?  If it were, I might go with  "With you there to help me" , or maybe "To Cry You a Song" - yeah in fact the latter is like the precursor to Cross Eyed Mary.  "Nothing to Say" is practically a ballad, as are "Teacher" and "Sossity" and even "Inside" and "For Michael Collins...".  Have I left any out?  Embarrassed

I wouldn't call Nothing To Say a 'ballad' nor Teacher.....and there are several very good songs on Stand Up that have a blues rock edge to them with some hard rock overtones for sure.
Crosseyed might be a bit rougher but it's not that great of a song imho.
