    Fair Warning's "Dirty Movies" so Underrated!!

    I agree with you. I love that song. Great groove to it.
    Three time witness to the comeback of the MIGHTY VAN HALEN. And then they faded back into obscurity.

    I don't know if it was ever played live or not, though...that could just be rumour and speculation...imagine that...

    I just don't think 'Dirty Movies' is under-rated in any way. Certainly not by me and the loads of CVH fans I've known over the years. Yea sure, most fans seem to maybe like other songs off Fair Warning better, but I love 'Dirty Movies' quite a lot. I'd even go as far as to say that sometimes I have found myself actually getting slightly impatient for Mean Streets to end so that DM could begin. It will always be a superb tune with DLR's soaring supreme vocals making it far from an under-rated gem on my card.
    Music is like girlfriends to me; I'm constantly amazed at the choices other dudes make----DLR

    That is probably my favorite VH song. It's sex driven, but it also has a dark atmosphere to it. It's almost kind of eerie. That would be a tough one to pull off live. I doubt they've ever done it. The intro has about three or four guitars going at once at one point. That has to be the best drum sound of '81.

    Don't have it on any of my FW boots. But I agree it's a great tune.

    Great lyric isn't it!!

    I always like the fact the Dave uses uncomplicated language to create a vivid image.

    He also writes his best lyrics when he's telling a story, of which Dirty Movies is a great example...
