Heaviest - On Fire
Softest - Jump
Wow tough one indeed.
Heaviest will be tough- theres a few options
On Fire, Light up the Sky, One foot out the door,
Softest, again tough- Little dreamer,woman in love,secrets.
man that is tough to narrow down to just one each.
heaviest - On Fire, One foot out the door, Tora Tora, Atomic Punk, House of Pain.
softest - Secrets, I'll wait, Could this be magic, big bad bill, push comes to shove...
Heaviest - Atomic Punk
Softest - I'll Wait
i forgot about Atomic punk as a heavy one.
How about Happy trails as a soft one. cant get any softer than that one.
Yeah, those two get my vote.Originally posted by DaveTheSoulOfVH

"If the American people had ever known the truth about what we (the BCE) have done to this nation, we would be chased down in the streets and lynched." - Poppy Bush, 1992
Heaviest: I'm the One, Romeo Delight, Hang 'Em High
Softest: Secrets, Romeo Delight (the bridge), Dance the Night Away
I'm going to agree with House of Pain as probably the heaviest, at least as far as tonal quality goes. Followed by Sunday Afternoon In The Park. Lyrically, I'd say Mean Streats followed by Jump (any song that uses suicide as a main thematic element is pretty heavy in my book)
Lightest would be Secrets (very lite-fm sound), Big Bad Bill (bop jazz) or Could This Be Magic (frothy CCR swamp blues).
HEAVIEST - HOUSE OF PAIN
softest - secrets
TLC
You KNOW I got the blues.
Can you dig it?
Welcome to Massachusetts. Now get the FUCK out of my way!
Heaviest: AND THE CRADLE WILL ROCK...
Softest: IN A SIMPLE RHYME
I am not soft how dare you.
Achtung Baby I say, I say...
"...Jump (any song that uses suicide as a main thematic element is pretty heavy in my book)" (fe_lung)
...ugh...what ?
heaviest= sinner's swing
softest= push comes to shove
Don't FUCK With Greatness...
heaviest-house of pain
softest-angel eyes
people that don't have dreams don't have much
Heaviest - Jump
Softest - Dance The Night Away

Heaviest. . .Loss of Control
Softest. . .Secrets
Keep on Rothing in the Free World
Heavy = Drop Dead Legs
Lite = Secrets
we seems to haves a consensus on Secrets...
Heaviest: Atomic Punk, ATBL, On Fire, House of pain, one foot out the door
Softest: Secrets, dancing in the streets, I'll wait, big bad bill.
Some parts of "So this is love" are pretty mellow, but then, once you settle into that E.Z. chair, that solo punches you in the face, kicks you out of the chair, and then rapes you. After the solo, you can get up, grab a cold one, sit back down and enjoy the rest of the song.
Heavy: fools
Soft: secrets(sorry secrets nothing again you,it's just about the song...soft but good!!!!!)
little french dreamer hate those Van Hagar backstage party!!

Heavy-- Panama
'softest'-- I'll Wait
Heaviest- Atomic Punk
Softest- Big Bad Bill or Secrets
Big Bad Bill ain't so soft...if it were played on electric guitar with the volume on stun, it would be apparent that the chords move fairly quick and it's up-tempo (taher than Secrets mid-tempo pace).
Same goes for "Could This Be Magic?"
Yeah, the clarinet thing got it lumped in there.Originally posted by academic punk

I got nothin' but love for vaudevillian remasters, but that clarinet sound ruins it.
It's like some redneck blowin' in an empty moonshine jug.
Now, "CTBM"....that has the whole damn the torpedos vibe that moppin' up that floor cunt fuck with.
Heavy - Romeo Delight/Unchained/Sinner's Swing
Soft = Angel Eyes
"With a rate of fire of over 20 rounds per second, the IMI Micro Uzi is almost as fast as Yngwie Malmsteen, and 25.4 times more musical"
Worst of all... It's true..
Atomic Punk
Could this be magic?
Fuck Scott Weiland. Fucking asshole. I get trashed all the time and still go to work. And my job sucks ass. -ODShowtime
Outta Love Again or On Fire. Both killer.
softer side of things... hmm... Big Bad Bill..?
"FUCK YOU, YOU FUCKIN' BITCH! WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE ANYWAYS? TALK TO ME LIKE THAT? FUCK YOU. DRAG QUEEN LOOKIN' WHORE- YOU AINT SHIT. YOUR THE FRECKLE TO THE LEFT OF MY BROWN EYE. NOW GO MAKE YOURSELF USEFUL...OH, PUT DAD ON THE PHONE"
Heavy - On Fire. Love Dave's falsetto on that one... kinda like Manowar. Alright, maybe I'm exageratting, but it fuckin' rules.
Soft - I'll Wait. Very poppy. One of me favorites, though.
Cheers! :bottle:
Dave sounds kinda forced in I'll Wait. I hate the synths too. One of Bill's fav's though! Manowar! Killer...
Oh yeah, and I love mullets too. Really.Originally posted by Big Troubles

LOL
Lots of cool responses
I was going to say
Heaviest: Light up the Sky
Softest: Secrets..
I'll wait is the beginning of the end musically for VH, but I really dig Dave's vocal on that.
Light up the Sky is one crazy mixed song. I mean that in the BEST way. Fast...Slow...great chorus awesome solo. I put it up there with Outta Love Again. and both are on my fav. album. II. I find VH2 to be one of the most underrated cvh albums ever. creative as a mo-fo.Originally posted by Panamark

atomic punk for me is the hardest song because it sounds very raw and "unpolished"...good to hear that dave has chosen that song for the last playlists!

Yeah ,you're right .I listened VH 2 this past few days and it's a kick ass album;Bottom up is a good song also.I think that 's one of the best Vh's album for a drummer!Originally posted by Big Troubles

Hmmmm, my opinion would be as follows;
Heavy; DOA, Unchained, Me Wise Magic because listen to how aggressive dave's vocals are. These are what I crank up with the windows down and speed above posted! *LOL*
Soft; Women In Love, Dance The Night Away, I'll Wait (but it seems too popish and that was a foreshadow of what we were about to be subjected to via Spammy McGee)
Water down the hatch!
