838. Barracuda by Heart (1977)

"Barracuda" represents Ann Wilson's response to a sleazy record execs attempts to intimate a lesbian love affair between her and her sister Nancy. The song has been compared to Led Zeppelin's "Achilles Last Stand" due to its guitar riff. In 2008, the GOP used the song to introduce Sarah Palin at their convention which angered the Wilson Sisters. However, other band members loved the idea since it brought the song back into the public's consciousness.
