Dude, why?

They're all great!

[binnie]

Right now, the song I'm listening too most is "Girl Gone Bad", I'm just hooked on it.

One of those that was always overlooked by the more 'obvious' CVH tunes, but I can't get enough of it right now.

Don't get me wrong. I just don't get "pumped up" listening to them. I have to be in the right mood to listen to them. The point I was trying to make is that there are those songs that just really stick out.

You mean 2 decades ago..Unless you mean the 2 songs they did with Dave in 96?


:confused:

[Simon Ribeiro]

Favourite tunes; from Runnin' With the Devil to House of Pain and then CGTSNM and MWM.

Thanks danielc for starting this VH Favorites Thread. It's so unique!! There's not another one like it on the board ! And that's a fact !

I recently took the time to figure out what Hard Rock CVH tracks that I would over-burn onto a 90 minute CDR. Sort of my "Best Of 1978-1984", --without-- the overplayed hits and covers, that I'm tired of, or never fucking liked in the first place !! :asshole:

So, here we go.....


-------------- MY BEST OF 1978-1984 CDR OF CVH --------------



Eruption
Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love
I'm The One
Jamie's Cryin'
Atomic Punk
Feel Your Love Tonight
Little Dreamer
Bottoms Up!
Light Up The Sky
Spanish Fly
D.O.A.
Beautiful Girls
Everybody Wants Some!!
Romeo Delight
Take Your Whiskey Home
Mean Street
Sinner's Swing!
Hear About It Later
Hang 'Em High
Cathedral
Little Guitars (Intro)
Little Guitars
The Full Bug
Happy Trails
Top Jimmy
Girl Gone Bad
House Of Pain

:killer: ~ ~ ~ :killer:

I love a mighty majority of all CVH songs, so I'd just follow the example of an earlier poster here and mention only the few CVH tunes that I never really liked and almost always skip:

Dancing in the Street
Big Bad Bill
Happy Trails
1984 (synth intro to the album)

....and that's all there is to it. The rest of CVH is my most cherished music ever.

Sure, I can take that approach, and list for you the VH songs that I NEVER really liked, or skip now, cause I'm a little burnt out right now on them:

Here's the tentative track listing posted over at Blabbermouth for the upcoming "Best Of 1978-1984":

"Best Of (1978-1984)" tentative track listing:

ALL OF THESE "HITS" GET THE NIX FROM ME EXCEPT (*)

01. Runnin' With The Devil
02. *Eruption
03. You Really Got Me
04. *Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love
05. *Jamie's Cryin'
06. Dance The Night Away
07. Somebody Get Me A Doctor
08. *Beatuiful Girls
09. *And The Cradle Will Rock
10. *Everybody Wants Some
11. *Mean Street
12. Unchained
13. So This Is Love?
14. Where Have All The Good Times Gone
15. Oh, Pretty Woman
16. Dancing In The Street
17. Jump
18. Panama
19. Hot For Teacher

So, there's 12 songs that I don't need on a VH CD..... 2/3 of this "Greatest Hits" offering is useless to me!!
