"The Duncan Hills Coffee Jingle" - Deathklok. Seriously, this solo is neat. It gets stuck in my head when I work.

The Solo for enter sandman by metallica is amazing! The solo for Divide by Disturbed is really good and underrated as well.

"The Spirit Carries On (skip to 2:50 for the solo)" by Dream Theater has a slow moody solo which really does fit the ending to the album "Metropolis Pt 2 Scenes from a Memory."

I've always digged the shirt Steven's wearing in that video. :lol:

Shesmovedon is a close second place for PT's solos IMO. Don't Hate Me (live version) is worthy of mention too.

Well a lot of the songs I posted have soloing during the whole song, and a few of the links are the solos only.
