- Join Metal Mike from the 80s Glam Metalcast and I as run down a list of 20 Hair Metal Hits... THAT WE HATE! Yes, we are both loves of hair metal, but for one reason or another, these hits just didn't grab us in the feels. This is sure to be a barn burner, so don't miss out!
In no particular order:
Party All Night, Quiet Riot - If this was a real party, I'd leave
Let's Put The X In Sex, KISS - Let's not. Super Cheesy
Black & Blue, Van Halen - Makes the leap from cringe to misogynistic in a single bound
Bad Medicine, Bon Jovi - My cure is the skip button
I'll Be there For You, Bon Jovi - Why are you shouting at me, JBJ?
Once Bitten Twice Shy, Great White - Skeevy unnecessary cover
For The Love Of Money, Bulletboys - Just why?
Unskinny Bop, Poison - Pointless slog
Without You, Motley Crue - A consistent skip, just dull
Hey Stoopid, Alice Cooper - Ugh
Bonus:
We Will Rock You, Warrant - Covers are almost always a sign of desperation. Bad ones are a kiss of death
Unskinny Bob-Poison...total cheesefest that blew azz!
Agreed. Because it was the first single I ignored the album at that time. Only now when I listen to the album, there are sooo many better songs on there that should have been singles instead of UBop.
@@sador42vinyl91 Just like Cherry pie, that was the record company. One of the guys said they were going to release Valley of lost souls as the first single.
Unskinny bop bop bop bop! She look good look good look good look good!
You're right... if we do a Part II that song has to make the list.
Valley of lost souls would’ve been killer to show that poison was back. Record companies screwed up a lot in the decision making process back then
Don’t blame for our shows going so long. It’s not my fault you want to gaze into my eyes for 2 hours a week!
Valid point. ;-)
@@HairMetalGuru419 Great Stream 🤘💄🤘
Great video boys!
@@kevinsmith7-7-7 Thank you, Brother, I appreciate it!
@@ashesantics Thanks, my man, I appreciate you!
Go Charley! Those little pups are awesome. I hope u are playing the pups some classic hair metal Anthony. Gotta say Smokin’ in the Boys room is a skip track for me as well. Also the Dave Lee Roth Just a Gigolo.
Aren't they cute? Yeah, they are sitting about 5 feet from me and rockin' out. Hey, thanks for watching, man, I appreciate it.
You definitely missed one @hairmetalguru. Unskinny Bop is absolutely god awful. Possibly the worse to ever be recorded of any genre
You're right. If I do part II that shit show is gonna be on my list.
You nailed it. I agree with everything on your list.
My most despised singles;
Winger - “ Seventeen”. The music is fine, but lyrics are gross… especially now that I have a teenage daughter.
Slaugter- Up All Night and Fly to The Angels. Why is Mark Slaughter allowed near a microphone?
Firehouse - Don’t Treat Me Bad and Love of a Lifetime. There are much better songs on the first album.
KISS- Heavens On Fire, Lick it Up, Let’s Put the X In Sex.
Ozzy and Lita- Close my Eyes Forever. Heavy metal duets don’t work… ever. When Ozzy sings “ Cloooose yoooor eyes” both my eyes end up in the same socket.
Lita Ford- Kiss Me Deadly. What the hell does that mean? Lita ford, “ the queen of metal” , isn’t.
Soon as you said def leppard, I knew you were going to say rocket. I've never liked that song either. However I really like Gods of War.
I love “Lovin’ You’s A Dirty Job”, “Women” and “Crazy Crazy Nights”.
Great White- "Once Bitten Twice Shy", Def Leppard "Armageddon It", and Extreme 'More Than Words" come to mind for me.
"More Than Words" was THIS CLOSE to being on my list.
Rock n roll all night -Kiss
Cherry Pie -Warrant
Pour some sugar on me - Def Leppard
bingo!
I did not think that i hear anything by Jackyl mentioned here. Tho i disagree but i can understand why some people would not like The Lumberjack, it is a novelty song. But that chainsaw solo is badass. Freking love that song and the band.
I'm right with ya--great song and great band. They put on a phenomenal live show.
I think it really comes down to mike not liking acdc which is fine. Jackyl is more acdc then motley
Something interesting to look at would be bands that may have been huge in the 80s, but are actually releasing better albums in the 2000s (that is mostly getting ignored because radio thinks they're too old or they don't fit in with modern trends or whatever).
Europe is on the top of my list for that. I liked a few songs by them in the 80s, can respect their 80s stuff a bit more now, but their more recent albums starting with 2006's Secret Society have been solid and regular listens. (I skip 2004's Start From the Dark because it felt like a misfire akin to Aerosmith's Done With Mirrors.)
2009's Last Look at Eden remains my favorite by them because they tried something different with it and it probably has some of the catchiest material they've ever written. The final track "In My Time" is probably their best ballad, though if you're a "not like the bluesy stuff" person you might think differently.
That's a great idea for an episode, man, I added it to the list. Thanks for supporting the channel!
Such a talented band.
No particular order 1. Slaughter- spend my life
2. Warrant- cherry pie
3. Firehouse- love of a life time
4. Twisted sister- we’re not gonna take it
5. Kiss- Uh! All night
6. Motley crue- smokin’ in the boys room
7. Def Leppard- let’s get rocked
8. Europe- final countdown
9. Quiet riot- cum on feel the noise
10. David Lee Roth- everything he’s ever put out on his own except for yankee rose and just like living in paradise lol. Love the channel brother 🤜🏼🤛🏼
You are right about diamond daves solo output. I remember seeing the California girls video on MTV as a kid. I was disappointed as my father loved van Halen and I grew up listening to1984
Turbo lover by priest Just terrible
Haha, good point.
“Time for Change” was a substantially better choice as a ballad single over the generic and pedestrian “Without You” which came across as an uninspired safe by the numbers ballad that lacked any originality or conviction.
I wish Janie Lane could have lived to see how awesome Cherry Pie was in Bad Grandpa. That alone made the entire existence of that song worth it.
I love "Way Cool, Jr." and "Without You". I mostly love the drums on "Without You" not so much Vince.
Damn it! I really didnt know that Shandi song, i hate disco, but now that song is stuck in my head...THANKS!
If I gotta have it stuck in my head, then YOU gotta have it stuck in your head. ;-)
Going to see Jackyl this Friday in Kentucky!!
Awesome! They put on a great live show. Have fun, Brother.
I would take shandi 7 days a week over Beth 😁
I don’t get the hate for cherry pie !
Love bites might be one of the worst ballads ever 😂
Another very thoroughly entertaining discussion. Agreed with a lot of them.
Smoking in the Boys Room was odious and adolescent and even though I was 15 I still didn't like it.
Make Love Like a Man and Let's Get Rocked were insanely stupid and lame even back when they came out. Cherry Pie might be a somewhat simple catchy song about sex, but at least it did that well. Those Def songs to me weren't even decent "fun" hard rock.
Keep up the good work!
If you're looking for other topics, maybe something on what lyrics really meant the most to you of these albums.
I think that's the thing. Most people, when they claim they are a fan of a band only know the hits or a handful of songs. To me that makes one a casual fan at best. Most bands best songs are the deep dives. Anyway, hits I dislike:
Mr.Big-All Their Ballads
Extreme-All Their Ballads (I like almost everything they did other than the ballads)
Scorpions-Rock You Like a Hurricane (never liked that song)
Ozzy Osbourne-Time After Time
Lita Ford/Ozzy-Close My Eyes Forever
Poison-Your Mama Don't Dance (hated the original, hate the cover even more)
White Lion-Radar Love
Even Y&T couldn't save Your Mama Don't Dance!
I'm like this with Motley Crue - I consider myself a fan, but I really only like the first two albums and Dr Feelgood. I'm usually an album guy so love a bit of diversity - so Mr Big and Extreme ballads are fine by me.
I agree with the Lepard part, but I think that diamond star halo is pretty good. Don’t put me down,I think if they would have done that after hysteria it could have done better.
Agree on the Kiss song Shandi. It slipped under my radar somehow until I paused this video to check the song out. I'm now a little traumatized because of hearing it.
Disagree on the hate for Def Leppard's Adrenalize. I'd even rank that as one of their best. I found the album to be pretty catchy and have a good energy to it. I have no idea how the songs on this album got dragged and the entire 'Slang' album got left untouched.
Oh, man, I would absolutely piss on Slang. But it didn't really have a 'hit,' so I didn't include it. I liked Adrenalize when it came out, but it just hasn't aged well, imo. Thanks for watchin', my man.
Most of them I didn't hate just heard them so much
The disco parts in their music was all paul Stanley's feminine side
Touche
@Hair Metal Guru Ok. KISS Shandie is a AM ready radio song. Thats it. Not good or bad. Just AM radio music. To prove my point, look up Alice Cooper's "You and Me" from 1977. Its a consequence or deliberate attempt to normalize metal/hard rock groups by the record companies. The freedom bands had in the early 70's was being pulled back in to corporate control
Def leppard had to make changes after the drummers accident
Valid point
Even more so, during the Adrenalize sessions, they were dealing with the death of Steve. Yes, some of the songs aren't great. Let's Get Rocked is awesome live. But I'm sure they could have put out an album full of "grunge" (kind of the Slang album) or even more White Lightning type stuff (which wouldn't be terrible). I think they went into auto pilot and tried to redo Hysteria because they were still dealing with the death of Steve and they were just doing 40:14 what they knew and had worked. They even debated if they would even continue after Steve.
I agree with Guru, that Jackyl debut is great. Chainsaw solos in hard rock fit perfect. That early David Lee Roth is rough, I can see why Eddie didn't want to cover all those songs. As far as Def Leppard's Adrenaline album goes, its a low point for lyricism except for White Lightning and Tear It Down which were the two good songs on it. I don't mind Tease Me Please Me, it's got a great riff and the whole getting a little action on the side fits that genre well (no one needs to know😅). Your Mama Don't Dance is lame as hell, I hate the original too! I agree, Love On The Rocks is way better than that one and should have been a single. Love In An Elevator, that one I'm conflicted on, the music on it is pretty damn good but even when I was 11 in 1989 the lyrics were silly to me, but Pump as a whole was pretty good.
Yeah, I'm a big fan of that Jackyl debut. And the Pump album as a whole is really solid. Give me more chainsaw solos!
When I listen to jackal the lumberjack doesn't get played l don't hate it but I don't love it butter are fantastic in concert I seen them at a club in Bay City Mi. Back in 1997 great show
I could be wrong. But i think the Crue sold more copies of Generation Swine than New Tattoo. GS was certified gold and sold some 300-some-K. NT didn't go gold (and wasn't released by a major label) and sold maybe 200-some-K. I know it only varies by about 100k, but 2/3's the sales #'s is certainly something.
"First band on the moon" I.M.O would have been a more fun single and video.
I always loved the Jackyll track. It was hilarious. The chainsaw playing the cliched Chuck Berry licks was funny. It was a live track essentially - it would rule live.
Just A Gigolo was funny too. And as Mike said - its a part of Dave. Dave went to shit after A Lil Aint Enuff though.
And I'm with Mike on Shandi. It fits with the album, and Unmasked was my first KISS album. I love it, and Dynasty.
"Sorry man gotta disappear...Let's get the Rock Outta here!!" 🎶 - Let's Get Rocked by Def Leopard...When they promoted the 1992 "Adrenalize" album...The lead singer said he loved Bart Simpson and he was an inspiration for the song...Still...The lyrics are horrifically bad...If the lyrics were better the song wouldn't be so bad...It's what happens when British guys try too hard..The album should have been titled "Americanize". 🎸 🇺🇲
I think I remember that Bart Simpson story as well. "Americanize..." great title! haha
I have a soft spot for Way Cool Jr. I can see your point though Guru. I think the horns work on the song. I am also not a blues guy but this song still has some grit to it. I think if Adrenalize/Lets Get Rocked was released several years earlier, it would have been huge. I think it was bad timing for them. It's still horrible though!
Lmao my favorite KISS album never gets much love. I'll always have a soft spot for Crazy Nights, at 37 I missed the era and spent the late 90's/00's blissfully out of touch. Crazy Nights was my introduction to KISS thanks to milk crate of hand me down cassettes from an older cousin. As generic as Crazy, Crazy Nights or Turn On The Night are I've blasted those songs since I was 10 and still get pumped up!
I LOVE Turn on the Night! Seriously.
There's a few songs like Unskinny Bop, Cherry Pie etc....that I won't go out of my way to listen to but won't skip them either. Dude (Looks Like A Lady) & More Than Words are two songs I absolutely hate. I love a cheesy ballad, I'll happily jam When The Children Cry all day BUT IMO More Than Words is just soulless and boring, it's the audio equivalent of watching paint dry and Dude Looks Like A Lady is an immediate skip or station change!
Britny Fox Girlschool Cant turn that garbage off fast enough when it comes on
What?! I frickin' love that song! haha
@@HairMetalGuru419 Sorry!
Haha I love girlschool
Not a big slaughter fan I do really like do ya know
Save the Weak by Britney Fox. It's like a bad parody of every pseudo socially conscious ballad ever. It reminds me of Russell Brand singing "We gotta do something " in Forgetting Sara Marshall.
First song I thought of before watching the video-"With Out You" Motley Crue
That song and Time For Change is why I always rank Shout At The Devil and Too Fast For Love over Dr. Feelgood.
I love ballads, but that song just makes me wanna hide in the closet.
How did you possibly limit this list to 20 songs? Calling them "hair metal hits" is a stretch when you're pulling songs off of New Tattoo, which basically opens the door to all of hair metal. You don't have to dig very deep into hair metal to find pure cheese.
Pretty Boy Floyd - Leather Boyz with Electric Toyz, Rock N Roll (Is Gonna Set the Night on Fire)
Judas Priest - Turbo, Ram it Down
Faster Pussycat - Bathroom Wall, Don't Change That Song
Danger Danger - Bang Bang, Naughty Naughty, Horny S.O.B., Get Your Shit Together
Kix - Blow My Fuse, Ring Around Rosie
Britny Fox - Girlschool, Shot from My Gun, SIx Guns Loaded
Roxy Blue - Rob the Cradle, It's So Easy
Hericane Alice - Tear the House Down, Wild, Young & Crazy
Bulletboys - Hard as a Rock, Kissin' Kitty
Cats N Boots - Whip it Out
Sleeze Beez - When the Brains Go to the Balls, Don't Talk About Roses
Don't get me wrong, nearly all of that list gets played in my regular rotation, so I definitely don't hate them (OK, maybe that's a whole other video). I'm also a special kind of broken when it comes to hair metal, so I lean into the cheese as much as any other part of it.
Shit, I love a lot of those songs. And, to be fair, we tried to limit our list to songs that were at least minor hits. And, hey, sometimes the cheese was the best part of hair metal...
Motley crue shouldn't even have to they should be able to give us some good rock n roll that's what we all want ,used to be my favorite band that changed,for a long time now dokken is my favorite band for good
I was 19 in 1985 you both disrespect Glam Metal by calling it Hair Metal that's a record company saying !
First of all, we do more to promote these bands than 99% of people who might call themselves fans of hair metal. Secondly, I'll stop calling it hair metal when the largest promoter of this type of music stops calling themselves "Hair Nation." And lastly, get the fuck over yourself. Remember, it's only rock'n'roll... but I like it.
Everything from Kiss I don't like really...Cherry Pie -Warrant first place!
Motley crue anything after 1990 is a shit show
Actually, I really like the Corabi album. Here's the kicker though - they should have recorded it under a different band name. That would have made a big difference to how people received it. It's a great album, but it's not what the world wanted Motley Crue to be. I always thought that if they had temporarily disbanded the Crue, renamed themselves Hooligans Holiday or something, and marketed it as a new project, then they might have had a lot more success with that whole venture.
@@ciaranmeeks9431 I'm all about the '94 album.
I love the '94 album, but I completely agree, Motley with Vince ended with Decade of Decadence.
when you realize that Without You is about Tommy lee's Dog that passed away it takes on a new love....if you are a pet lover and have lost a pet those words are perfect
What’s amusing to me about the Poison song YMDD is that they put THAT on the album and left an ass kicker like ‘Livin For The Minute’ OFF the album. YMDD should have been the B-side song.
As Sammy Hagar would say “Dave is Vaudeville”
I think Motley's New Tattoo Album didn't do well is because Tommy wasn't there just like anything they do now without Mick will not do well either
Very valid point, man.
New Tattoo had some good Tracks , the Title Song , Hollywood Ending, The cover of White Punks on Dope . Randy was a great drummer .. RIP . I saw that Tour in San Antonio with the Samantha girl drumming ..
Can’t disagree with a majority of your lists. Here’s my 10 “hot takes”. KISS - God Gave R-n-R To You, just pure corny garbage. JUDAS PRIEST - Parental Guidance (yes Turbo is a hair metal album), 40 year old men singing about not needing any parents around. WHITESNAKE - Fool For Your Loving, lifeless rehash of an older song after the complete brilliance of the 87 album. TWISTED SISTER - Leader Of The Pack, just why ??????? EUROPE - The Final Countdown, hated it from the very first time I heard it.
I preface the next 5 with the fact that I love ballads ( just not these ballads) OZZY & LITA - Close My Eyes Forever, ughh makes my skin crawl. GUNS & ROSES - 3 shot, November Rain, Don’t Cry and Civil War, completely overblown, boring crap. And my absolute number 1 most hated hit of all time, SCORPIONS - Winds Of Change. I loathe this frigging song, I have never enjoyed one damn note of it. It makes me want to break things.
Great comment, and you're right, Turbo is hair metal. And, shit, the GNR 3 ballads... why they had to go so big and bloated after Appetite is beyond me. Hey, man, thanks for watching and for sharing this stuff, I appreciate it.
Great lists guys. Huge RATT fan here & I totally agree with your Way Cool Jr pick. The first two tracks, City To City & I Want A Woman are way better tracks. Actually, I love all the other songs on the Reach For The Sky album. Great watch...Thanx Guru !!
That was a shitty RATT album but Way Cool Jnr was one of the better songs, with those you mentioned. I do find it strange that Guru and guests don't like blues - hair metal is grounded in the blues really. But each to their own.
Love Bites is a great song,.....love stinks is good song
So.... Less than 55 seconds in and I'm already hearing Def Leppard! The Love Bites diss continues!!!!!
Even though we're going to beef forever over Love Bites, I hear ya about Hysteria, it is great album which does have it's own distinct sound and it is a sort of mix of pop and rock but overall it's a great set of songs. WOMEN, Animal and Love Bites are fantastic rock songs....
But.... You're kinda right when you say only half the album is good, Rocket, PSSOM, They're not great songs.... For me, listen to WOMEN, Animal, Love Bites, Hysteria, Armageddon It, Gods Of War, then listen to the rest at your will, I skip a few songs from the album.
I agree with a lot of what you guys mentioned here... Now I come to think of it in retrospect from our future vantage point, it seems like we only listened to about half the songs on the albums we liked in our genre, only a few albums were so good you could listen start to finish... Hollywood Vampires (LA Guns), Back For The Attack (Dokken), Firehouse (Firehouse), Night Songs (Cinderella), Operation Mindcrime (Queensryche)....
It's like the CD age all over again, pop the CD in, re-order the song list to listen to your faves in descending order.... We do that now with TH-cam, we just don't listen to the songs we don't like at all, some songs I haven't listened to in a loooooong time coz they're not my favourites!!
What are my most hated songs... Hmmmmm.... Well I don't actually HATE many songs, There's the songs we love, the songs that are filler and the songs that are meh. I always find something to appreciate in most songs, good solo, good bass riff, good outro, good drum fill, etc....
There is one song I do hate with a passion though...
More Than Words, Extreme....
I love a great Power Ballad (Anytime, I Remember You, Love Bites, Don't Wanna Be Your Fool Anymore, etc..) A bit of acoustic then into some rockin' riffs.... But More Than Words is just all bleeuugh.... It's the type of song a mid 2000's Irish Boy Band could do!!
Songs I'm not so keen on....
Love Of A Lifetime, Firehouse...
Too soppy, too slow, nah.... It's not as saccharine as More Than Words, but it's a bloody good 2nd place! LOL!
.
.
.
.
Rock has the best love songs of any music genre, a love song doesn't need to be all acoustic and slow tempo, some of the best are fast, up tempo songs, like...
I'd Die For You (Bon Jovi)
Mr Rainmaker (Warrant)
Helpless (Firehouse)
Broken Heart (White Lion)
Separate Ways (Journey)
No One Like You (Scorps)
... And the greatest rock love song of all time...
Photograph (Deff Lep)
... You get my drift!!
Imma gonna think on this and draw up my list of least liked songs!!!
Rocket is probably one of my favorite songs on the album,women good song
I waited years between Pyromania and Hysteria - and the first two songs I was like WTF!. Still don't really like them but don't skip them anymore. After those two, the album is perfect.
I thought The Lumberjack was fun. You have a standard, generic blues shuffle with a chainsaw solo. I thought it was fun and creative.
Completely agree
Thanks!
Holy shit, how did I miss this? My notifications really suck. Anyway, Craig... damn, I can't thank you enough... seriously. It's shit like this that makes me know I'm on the right track, and your support means the world to me. Thanks, Brother...
@@HairMetalGuru419 Not much, just to show my appreciation. You guy and your guests are just full of enjoyment and it's a great positive thing to listen to in our crazy world. If you haven't already, check out that ASKA Soul Stealer video and see what you think.
Pour some sugar on me is the absolute worst cheeze
i never understood “give it to me good” from trixter, and why everyone loved that. song was just dumb.
bon jovi-lay your hands on me
motley - hell on high heels was terrible, poorly written garbage.
while i love ultraphobic, family picnic wasn’t the best choice to run with. always felt that album had so much to offer, but that song could have stayed an album cut, and used high or perhaps crawlspace as a single.
Finally, someone who thinks the same way about Give it to me good! When I heard that, it made perfect sense to me why glam needed to die for awhile, I hate that shit so much
What no love for on through the night cd. The whole point of hell on high heels was the innuendos. Yes the song is cheesy as fuck but it the sleaze of the song that makes it rock. Nikki is known for writing cheesy lyrics. Over half their catalog sux. I was a huge crue head. I think swine rocks in its own way. I cant understand why people don't like the blues. That's where rock came from. To each their own.
I like a lot of cheesy shit.. but there are times where the cheese outweighs the substance. As for the blues, hey, like you said, to each their own. My grandma couldn't understand why people didn't like jazz. My son can't understand why I don't like Kanye West. Personal preference.
Naughty Naughty- Danger Danger
Save the weak- britny fox
Shelter me- Cinderella
Women- Def leppard
That Jackyl song with the chainsaw
Shit, if I do a Part II, Save the Weak by Britny will be there. Holy balls, that is cringey.
Guru I agree on your list 100%
I always knew you were a smart guy. ;-)
The chainsaw speel turned me completely off from Jackyl. If I want to listen to amped up blues I put Led Zepplin one on the turntable.
For the most part, I can't think of many that I outright hated. Usually, it was I just got sick of hearing the songs over and over. Bon Jovi's Slippery When Wet album is prime example. Loved the album, loved the singles but when they oversaturated the airwaves with "Wanted Dead Or Alive" in particular, I got so sick of Bon Jovi, to this day Slippery When Wet is one of my least listened to albums.
Winger, though...hate "She's Only 17"
Warrant ditto with "Down Boys"
Completely agree on Winger's 17. However, I STILL love Wanted Dead or Alive! haha
I love Def Leppard but your description of “make love like a man” being like a Viagra commercial made me die laughing!! Haha I’ve never liked that song and as a musician hate the way they made that crappy chorus!
Be cruel to your school by Twisted Sister was so bad.
Some songs have a corny part but the rest is alright. For example 'born to be my baby' intro, straight into 'nah nah nah' - too desparate to be catchy.
Ive just realized like many of these on this list, it's a cover. Desmond child wrote it I think
There's a lack of appreciation for humour in much of these choices - DLR, Jackyl, Def Leppard, Aerosmith, all tongue-in-cheek songs. You guys German or what?😁
When Def Leppard did update their sound with Slang, everyone hated it.
But slagging hair metal tunes for cheesy lyrics? You may as well complain at the loud guitars!
I enjoy just about every song discussed 😁😁
Britny fox save the weak
Ozzy osbourne so tired
Acdc danger
Rocket is actually my favorite song off of Hysteria. Women wasn't good though. Outside a couple songs, Adrenalize wasn't good either; especially lyrically.
A worst song I'd add: More Than Words- Extreme. Love the band, hate that song.
Also Love Of A LIfetime and When I look Into Your Eyes by Firehouse. Such generic ballad BS. I consider those songs one of the reasons why hair metal died out.
You can also add To Be With You by Mr. Big to the generic ballad list.
Lets go!!
We're cocked and loaded, Brother.
The main one I hate is “Don’t know what you got til it’s gone”. I don’t like Cinderella’s ballads. Tom should use his clean voice when singing a ballad. It’s not a terrible song but the way he sings it, I hate it.
Holy shit, "Don't Know What You Got" is one of my favorite ballads of all time... you just stabbed me in the heart. ;-)
@@HairMetalGuru419 Good song, the vocals though, I just can't do it :)
Hell Yeah! The song I hate the most is Sweating Bullets by Megadeth.
I actually like that song...lol..
It's a great song I think, nothing tops Rust In Peace though.
Megadeth? Wouldn't consider them hair Metal.
@@scottricci5063 yeah I know. I still hate it.
I've never been a big Megadeth fan, so I'm assuming I hate it as well. ;-)
Aerosmith I agree don't like it not a fan period
I like stryper but I have to laugh at honestly. It touches on all the 80s topics but replaces the woman and or drugs/ venues with Jesus, church and throwing bibles instead of guitar picks and drum sticks into the audience.
Way Cool jr,-Ratt....Really like their overall catalog....but that song sucked.
Right with you there.
I have a list of Hair Metal podcasters THAT I HATE! - 1) Metal Mike. 2) HairMetalGuru. It didn't have to be this way guys! :)
At least you hate Metal Mike more than me...
We’re not gonna take it! That is take the bashing of these hair metal podcasters! Now lay off or it’ll be 18 and life to go! 😂
Some of my “nails on a chalkboard” songs:
Your Momma Don’t Dance by Poison is dreadful.
I Won’t Forget You also by Poison is a really weak ballad.
Without You by Motley Crue is garbage.
Let’s Put the X In Sex by Kiss is corny trash.
Don’t Cry (both versions) by GnR stinks
As a big Van Halen fan, I think Jump is cringe.
Love Bites by Def Leppard is 10 pounds of shit in a 9 pound bag. That song SUCKS!!
Damn, I feel a lot of anger in this post. ;-)
Way Cool Jr. is one of the best Ratt songs. Doesn't belong on this list
It's just an opinion, man, you don't have to agree with it.
@@HairMetalGuru419 I guess it’s too bluesy right
@@axljonsson1716 Chorus is decent, but the horns and that clickety clack shit at the beginning kinda ruin it for me.
Sick guitar parts at least
Just don't like kiss at all their a re a few songs that are ok but over all don't like them
