    "Supper's Ready" I recited it for a poetry project back in high school, and I still know it. (It probably helps that I also listen to it often )

that's pretty awesome... I have to do that the next time i hear a really kick ass song for the first time.
I can strangle a canary in a tin can and it would be really original, but that wouldn't save it from sounding like utter sh*t.

Hmmm, well I did know most of the following, until I released I've forgotten them a bit!

VdGG:

Killer
Refugees
White Hammer
Most of the Still Life album (except La Rossa's vocals)

Robert Wyatt:

Sea Song
Alife/Alifib

When I hear them I can remember them though, word for word.

Oh and most people should know: Bohemian Rhapsody (not by choice, it's just one of those songs that I know all of it!).

You've just had a heavy session of electroshock therapy, and you're more relaxed than you've been in weeks.

While drunk at Wacken Open Air Festival in 2006, I growled and air guitared along to the entirety of The Sound of Perseverence by Death (or at least up until track 5 when someone switched it off).

Arrgh. I'd forgotten about that album. Cygnus X-1 used to scare me, so I memorized it... I pretty much remember the whole album as well. Just when I thought I'd gotten off my Rush high... Wacko

Pretty self explanatory. The longer, the more impressive, I would think.
 
I've memorized a few epics note for note:
 
Tarkus
The Gates of Delirium (up to 'Soon')
Nine Feet Underground
The Revealing Science of God
2112
Hemispheres
 
etc...
