_Animal_ is my choice, though _Pour Some Sugar On Me_ brings back fond memories of strip clubs. I loved the whole _Hysteria_ album, and wore out my cassette from playing it so much. I saw them on tour in Dallas when this album came out. Europe was the opening act, whom I liked a lot, too. Def Leppard put on a great concert, with lots of energy and cool laser light effects. ---

No **High ‘n’ Dry** poll? Not even a _ **Pyromania** _ poll? Arguably, _real_, obsessive Def Leppard fans (among which I would not count myself) would want to see those polls (not to mention an **On Through the Night** poll) posted before a(n) **Hysteria** poll. At any rate, I decided to go with the sublime title track. But dear god, I’m certain of the fact that the dreaded “Pour Some Sugar on Me” is going to win this thing in a walk. ---

Animal, but I also really like Armageddon It. ---

Oh, my. I’m such a hater tonight. I went with ‘least bad’ (bought this album as a big DL fan in the day. Meh). Looking forward to the other polls. So, Animal, as most like their better work. ---

Love this album. Maybe it’s too slick, but it all just _works_. I listen to _Pyromania_ more, but there are a stack of great tracks on _Hysteria_, too. My vote is for the title track, but I’m just listening to “Pour Some Sugar on Me” at the moment, and both blow me away every time. Great stuff.
