It may not be perfect, but I am darn close to knowing all of "Lateralus" (the album)
Listen to it a minimum of once a week, and it is still that good.

All of De-loused in the Comatorium by The Mars Volta
"Sacred Sound" by IQ
All of "Liquid Tension Experiment 1" and "2" except for the song "Three
Minute Warning" (yes, I know they're all instrumental - but that
doesn't stop me from having them memorized)
And a lot of random songs from about a million other bands.

Puff..so many! Albums? Close to the edge, Relayer, Hybris, The Yes album, Foxtrot, Selling England by the pound...Absolution and some more
But then there are some songs I can sing along to perfectly! Suppers ready being the best example!

Ok, it's a god damn given... Hmm let's see and I won's say Floyd or Doors or Tull I consider them a definite given too... CCR, Zeppelin, Dylan, Caravan... a banch of songs Blue Oyster Cult-Don't fear the ripper Rush-Tom Sawyer King Crimson-I talk to the wind (generally the whole album) Kansas-Nobody's home Rainbow-Since you've been gone Aphrodite's Child - The four horsemen Donovan-Lord of the dance I think I've memorised the classic-prog rock songs that I know! now that I come to think about it... I can sing them all in my head...Except for Kraut and Japanese and those exotic mysterious b*****ds...in general! (does whistling the tune count???) Ok the -not in so many words- answer is I have memorised a lot of songs!!!

"Holy diver, you've been down too long in the middle of the sea!"
Someone else did that already. Oh well, never mind. I bought the album for Rainbow in the Dark anyway.

I admit to buying The Last In Line because of the album cover. I liked him OK back in the day, but never a devoted follower. Still, Vivian Campbell's solo on the title track is amazing.

I used to sing it, it was fun

Name any Tull song...or, for some variety, I know some King Crimson here and there. Not that words are the key point of their songs...
Oh, and Wish You Were Here. Heh. I even worked out the guitar backing for that. I'm so cool.

I don't remember a single song really well, once I put something on and I hear the first note I know excactly what comes next, but in most if not all cases I can't remember a darn thing about any song, just by thinking about it.
closest to full remembering (if I sing it it will still take me 5:52 seonds, so I know it pretty well) is Bohemian Rhapody and we will rock you from Queen, not really impressive, but than again I'm getting older by the minute.
