Best VH "Ballad"

[Mr. Vengeance]

I put ballad in quotations because none of the VH tunes are really what I'd call a ballad. But, what slow VH song is your fave?

I have to go with "Secrets". Great guitar, great vocals, and some of Dave's best lyrics.

Of course this poll is open only to the first six albums....I'd say anyone nominating a fucking Sammy tune should be kicked in the nuts, but a Sammy fan wouldn't have any.

Little Dreamer? Would that count as a ballad?? I don't see any "ballads". Jamie's Cryin'??

Who the hell knows?

Angel Eyes...

1. Secrets

2. Women in Love

3. Little Dreamer

Angel Eyes

Little Guitars (I consider this a love ballad)

[hard rock]

secrets, woman in love, little dreamer and maybe even if it can be considerd a ballad i`ll wait.

[secrets]

Secrets of course. Not only their best 'ballad' but one of their best songs too.

Secrets hands down. Great song and I always dug it live.

Someone told me that Jamie's Cryin' was about rape? I am probably very wrong tho...

Yep, I agree. Live it was fantastic. Alot of the songs off Diver Down really came alive when played live.

Women in Love... Never saw it as a ballad... One of the top 3 songs from Van Halen if you ask me!!
