The Heaviest Van Halen Compilation

[Panamark]

A Mate of mine has requested that I make him a "heavy" classic Van Halen compilation. He never really got into the whole Van Halen catalog like I did. I played him "Light up the Sky" recently and he fucking loved it. He asked if I could make him up a compilation CD of Van Halens heaviest songs.

I know this guy would hate "Dance the night away" but would love stuff like "Romeo Delight". If we had to pick 10-12 songs off the first six albums, what songs would be the heaviest ??

My first pick is "Light up the Sky"

[jabrow75]

1 Unchained
2 Light Up The Sky
3 On Fire
4 And The Cradle Will Rock
5 Somebody Get Me A Doctor
6 Girl Gone Bad
7 House Of Pain
8 Mean Street
9 Dirty Movies
10 Take Your Whiskey Home
11 Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love
12 Romeo Delight
13 D.O.A.
14 Atomic Punk

[Panamark]

Not bad Jabrow75 !!
We could also throw Panama in there I reckon.. Any others ?

[Eyes of the Night]

Don't forget Eruption!!!

[TMR]

SINNERS SWING!

Take away that ON FIRE song....I can't stand that song!

Then Dave had to remake that song with Baby's On Fire.

Danger in the rear view mirror, there's trouble in the wind

[TMR]

Just give your friend a copy of
EAT'EM AND SMILE
FAIR WARNING

That should take care of his thirst for heaviness....lol

Don't forget ME WISE MAGIC

[Mr Badguy]

I made a C90 tape for my car:

Runnin` with the devil
Hot for teacher
Romeo delight
Women in love
So this is love?
Little guitars
I`ll wait
Secrets
Unchained
And the cradle will rock...
I`m the one
Somebody get me a doctor
Eruption
1984
Jump
In a simple rhyme
Hang `em high
Feel your love tonight
Mean street
Light up the sky
The full bug
On fire
Panama
Everybody wants some!!
Sunday afternoon in the park
One foot out the door
Ice cream man

You`d have to cut 15 minutes out of that for a CD, though.

[Seshmeister]

I've never seen I'll Wait make a list before.

[DLR7884]

Right, but Jump made the list for Mr. Badguy as well.

If you need to trim 15 mins off his list, drop Jump, 1984, Secrets, and I'll Wait.

DLR7884
I wouldn't consider those "heavy," there's a few others I'd replace as well.....

[Seshmeister]

I really like 'Secrets'.

Personally I would lose Sunday afternoon in the park and One foot out the door too.

Cheers!

[DLR7884]

I like Secrets too.

But it is by no means "heavy."

DLR7884
I thought that's what the thread was about?

[ALinChainz]

Needs Take Your Whiskey Home too I think ...

[ELVIS]

Take out 'Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love' ...

That's not heavy...

[ELVIS]

Add 'Fools' and 'Outta Love Again'...
