I am mostly a MK 1 fan so my choices may be quite unusual.

@ cacho: No, those are the ones that I prefer, and I like DP. I practically grew up with them. DP In  Rock is what got me into that music in the first place, right back in '70.
 
I've got every single one of their studio albums, and a couple of live ones, but I don't think anything comes even close to the magnificence of those two.

Being a fan of the mkII Purple (from the classic era), I'd probably pick these 10:

Child in Time
Lazy
Strange Kind of Woman
Black Night
When a Blind Man Cries
Fireball
Demon's Eye
Speed King
Highway Star
Pictures of Home

It's very tough trying to fit in all my favourites, and I've not managed to do it.
 
Here's my ten:-
 
1.  Highway Star
2.  Fireball
3.  Child In Time
4.  Maybe I'm A Leo
5.  Burn
6.  Wring That Neck
7.  Space Truckin'
8.  Black Night
9.  Demon's Eye
10. Woman From Tokyo
 
(apologies to Mandrake Root and Mistreated, how can I leave them out?)

Well, OK, this is my definitive list of Purple's Top 10.
 
1. April
2. Anthem
3. Hallelujah
4. Mandrake Root
5. Fools
6. Child In Time
7. Livin' Wreck
8. Chasing Shadows
9. Cry Free
10. First Day Jam
 
N.B. Doesn't matter who sings, I always thought the music was more important than the lyrics.
