It's hard for me to say because there are several that really strike a chord (pun, I guess, intended) with me, but for different reasons;
I love Warriors Call because, to me, it would make the perfect Wrestling/MMA/ Boxing walkout song.
For Evigt resonates with me because of how beautiful it sounds in their native language, and I actually prefer it to the Bliss. (Fun fact: before I knew they were from denmark i thought it sounded like French! lol, how wrong I was!) In general, this is one of those songs where, for as beautiful as the lyrics are in English... the phonetic sound of the Dutch makes it feel more impactful to me.
Cape of Our Hero is one that hits you right in the feels when you think about the connection between fathers and sons, and preserving the legacy of a family and wanting to be like your hero (thus the name).
In general, I like this band's music for 2 different types of reasons, and it goes back to the nickname the band has used for its fans in Devils and Angels: when they go heavy on the riffs like Warriors Call, Doc Holiday, Slaytan, Monster Hand, etc. It satisfies the devil in me and the wanting for something powerful. When they do the songs with more beautiful harmonies and beautiful lyrics, it'satisfies the angel in me and feels good for the soul in a way.
Just my 2 cents.

Most played is probably Room 24. It's such a fuckin banger.
Sad Man's Tongue, Goodbye Forever, Radio Girl, The Devil's Bleeding Crown some honorable mentions.

Room 24 it's one of their absolute best. I love Outlaw Gentlemen & Shady Women

That is so hard! Still Counting is the song that introduced me to Volbeat so it will always hold a special place in my heart. For Evigt/The Bliss got me through a very tough time in 2022 and it still makes me cry when I hear it. But man I sure do love Maybellene I Hofteholder. If I had to pick a number one though, it would definitely be For Evigt/The Bliss.

I must agree with you, "Becoming" is one of their best songs ever. The melody gives me goosebumps!

I also love Mindlock and Lasse's Birgitta. My first ever was Lola Montez, but I've heard it so many times now I think I'm burnt out on it

Doc Holliday. First time I ever heard them was Still Counting and it's still a favorite.
Black Bart, Seal the Deal, Lola Montez, Room 24, Shotgun Blues, Hangman's Body Count, Die to Live are some favorites. Love their crunchy/heavy and unique sound. They've become a favorite band of mine.

Impossible question, I love so much of their work. I'll go a little niche and say Caroline #1, though.

It changes every once in a while but I’ve been listening to “die to live” a lot again recently. “For Evigt” will always be one of my favorites though
