My turn!

1. Chicago, USA (perfect layout, height, density; everything.)
2. New York City, USA (I recognize that NYC clearly beats Chicago as far as sheer amount and height of skyscrapers, but they don't really form a skyline to me; more like a huge blob.)
3. Sao Paulo, Brazil
4. Hong Kong, China (< the reason I like Sao Paulo skyline more than Hong Kong's is because SP is the largest, most impressive mass of highrises I know of on Earth. Hong Kong has an impressive and great skyline, but it is somewhat limited and you can see the mountains right through it)

(obvious top four; next ones are harder)

5. Tokyo, Japan
6. Seoul, S.Korea
7. Toronto, Canada
8. Minneapolis, USA
9. La Defense (Paris), France
10. Bangkok, Thailand

What do you think of that^?
