Had to leave off White Lion, The Scorpions, Motley Crue, Quiet Riot, etc.
Henry Spencer Posted November 22, 2004 Report Posted November 22, 2004 [*]Kix ~ "Don't Close Your Eyes" [*]Faster Pussycat ~ "House of Pain" Out of all the overblown, cheesy power ballads of the eighties, these are the two cheesiest and most overblown. Which, of course, makes them brilliant.
Guest Coffey Posted November 22, 2004 Report Posted November 22, 2004 Of course. I should've just changed Once Bitten Twice Shy to something like Home Sweet Home and made it the power ballad edition. Maybe Winds of Change by The Scorpions even.

5_moves_of_doom Posted February 10, 2005 Report Posted February 10, 2005 I've never done an overall version. Wow. Maybe that's because I can never think of five songs to put on here. But, eh, here we go. Of the moment: George Gershwin -- "Rhapsody in Blue (Zubin Mehta conducted version)" The Velvet Underground -- "Heroin" Television -- "Torn Curtain" Slint -- "Good Morning Captain" Talking Heads -- "Born Under Punches (The Heat Goes On)" I feel bad that there's no Nick Drake on there, and I think it's too soon to put any Nick Cave in there just yet, but eh, this is my list today.
