    no big ting versus mean street

    mean street is a pretty good song, but i like no big ting alot better cuz it represents all the stuff i like about dave, and the jamacian dude really modernizes his sound!!!!!

    this is the kinda song that makes you wanna smoke a joint and drink some jack daniels straight from the bottle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Damn man....no fucking way.

    Comparing THAT to Mean Street? Why Mean Street?

    I mean really...why compare that to Mean Street...WHAT FOR????

    There are many songs to compare other songs to...why THAT one and Mean Street?

    Are you crazy?

    The best topic you ever started was the Hall and Oates one! :D

      Dude, I agree with you. As much as I love Mean Streets, it's nothing compared to the vibe of No Big Ting. I think Dave carried a dark edge with Van Halen, but he really blossomed as a solo artist. Too much exasperation!!!
      I'm very proud of what was that band and what was that show and what it did mean to people. It disgusts me that it has turned into the complete opposite. That it now represents everything that I spoke against, that we suppoesedly represented the converse of. I don't want to have to remember that the team turned into that. Makes me question what the team was while I was a member. Was it all bullshit? If nothing else, it confirms in my mind that from my standpoint - yours truly, David Lee - not a fraction. If nothing else, this kind of morbid, wounded animal anger aimed my way has caused me to look deep into that bathroom mirror and come back to you with "my shit was legit." It was for real. And perhaps the test is time. Because here I am, a decade and a half later, haven't changed much. I look a little different, but not much. My sense of humour is about the same.

Listen man..you have a right to your opinions and I respect them..but No Big Ting and fuckin' Mean streets arent even in the same ball park..shit,they're not even the same fucking sport. I don't know guys...I'm starting to think that this cat might me a Sammy spy. Listen to the intro on mean streets...pour me a shot..light ME a joint and ...just.....listen....
