Dancin in the Streets is probably my least favorite classic VH song. It still has enough of the old sound for me to still listen to it. Ed's solo still sounds like Ed... unlike that crap they pass off as Ed nowadays.

And in my opinion, "Little Guitars" is FAR from the quintessential VH song. Sure it's good, but if you MUST go with a song from Diver Down, "Hang 'Em High" is more apt for that crowning achievement.
Hang 'em High is amazing.
The Full Bug - amazing
Secrets - great
Intruder and Happy Trails - ehh
But all us motherfuckers ate it up at the time.Comment

YES GOD_DAMNIT!!!Comment

In my opinion it is the worst VH CD well not as bad as VH III.
And in closing to answer this statement:
Those songs are good, VH's rendetitions of them were beyond bad.
Now let's see you make a point that is coherent.
At least try and form a sentence this time.

Ah, C'mon man. You are smarter than this. Are you telling me that you think Diver Down was the shits? I think musically it was a fantastic album that showed VH were capable of re-doing tunes better than what they were meant to be originally.
Seriously, Big Bad Bill is a great tune. Daves voice and that clarinet are great. Awesome rendition of Pretty Woman. Dancin in the Streets.
Not to mention Secrets, Little Guitars and Hang em High along with Full Bug. That album rocked, and to say VH3 was better. Hey man. You are lying. Simple and true. VH3 sucked serious ass. Id rather listen to Timberlakes "Gonna rock your body" over and over again instead of listening to VH3 one more time."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"Comment

No one would've ever guessed.
I still question it
I nominate myself in the "best owner with most few words" category.
ALMOSTsaved......... you're sad. Why publicize it?
ALMOSTsaved is the "chick with dick" demographic.
