Just saw this today and it was a hoot! Of course, with lists comes criticism, but I say make your own list! VH-1 just so happens to have the tube to voice their own opinions. But it's fun to rip lists apart, too.
My main criticism of the criticism is that some of these songs were chosen because they were done by metal bands that sang a non-metal song or a band that doesn't play metal. For example, would you consider Europe a metal band? Many of these were simply hard rock bands. Maybe the title should have been "Rock" instead of "Metal."
I also laughed because I have or had many of these songs on CD or cassette!
The List in reverse order (have fun ripping this list apart and explaining why they were chosen - the people on the "panel" were sometimes hilariously "duh" in their own explanations):
