    My new "Best of the Best" CD

    Okay. Lately, I've felt the need to get back into a more VH routine in my listening habits. I have to admit -- I have lately been discouraged and hadn't been listening to any VH.

    Today, I happened to hear Can't Get This Stuff No More, and my desire to listen to The Good Stuff was reignited. I decided I needed a new compilation CD to listen to on the way to work, and on the way home. I've got a blank 80 minute CD sitting here. I just gotta pick the tracks.

    So here's the deal -- I'll list all my favorite songs from each CD with the time stamps. I gotta get this list down to 80 minutes (1:20) and right now I'm at 118 minutes and 51 seconds.

    I want to get as close to 80 minutes as possible.

    So here's the songs:

    From Van Halen

    Runnin' With The Devil (3:33)
    You Really Got Me (2:36)
    I'm The One (3:44)
    Feel Your Love Tonight (3:40)
    Little Dreamer (3:20)
    Ice Cream Man (3:17)
    On Fire (2:58)

    From Van Halen II

    Dance the Night Away (3:03)
    Somebody Get Me a Doctor (2:50)
    Outta Love Again (2:49)
    Beautiful Girls (3:54)

    From Women and Children First

    Everybody Wants Some!! (5:06)
    Fools (5:54)
    Romeo Delight (4:17)
    Could This Be Magic? (3:07)
    In a Simple Rhyme... (4:37)

    From Fair Warning

    Dirty Movies (4:04)
    Sinner's Swing (3:04)
    Hear About It Later (4:30)
    Unchained (3:27)
    So This Is Love? (3:04)
    Push Comes To Shove (3:45)

    From Diver Down

    Where Have All The Good Times Gone? (3:02)
    Dancing In The Streets (3:43)
    The Full Bug (3:15)
    Happy Trails (1:05)

    From 1984

    Panama (3:29)
    Top Jimmy (2:58)
    Hot For Teacher (4:41)
    Girl Gone Bad (4:32)

    From Best Of, Vol I

    Can't Get This Stuff No More (5:11)
    Me Wise Magic (6:01)



    So... help me eliminate some, please.
    I've got the cure you're thinkin' of.

    Take off Happy Trails.

    For the purpose of your CD, it's a waste of 1:05

      Me Wise Magic (6:01)

        Not sure how this works out time wise, but I would eliminate:

        Little Dreamer (3:20)
        Ice Cream Man (3:17)
        Could This Be Magic? (3:07)
        Push Comes To Shove (3:45)
        Happy Trails (1:05)
        Top Jimmy (2:58)
        Girls Gone Bad

        I was having the same problem. I just ended up with a two cd best of. VH has too many hits and it would hard to leave any of them out in the cold.

          No man, just get a 6 CD changer in your trunk and put the original 6 pack in it. Hit the random button and enjoy.

          That's what I did.

            Actually, I've been looking at putting a removable hard disk drive into my car, hooking it into my stereo system and dumping all the cds on there.

            As for the songs I wound up taking off, they were:

            Runnin' With The Devil (3:33)
            Little Dreamer (3:20)
            Everybody Wants Some!! (5:06)
            In a Simple Rhyme... (4:37)
            Dirty Movies (4:04)
            Sinner's Swing (3:04)
            Unchained (3:27)
            Where Have All The Good Times Gone? (3:02)
            Dancing In The Streets (3:43)
            Top Jimmy (2:58)

            I wound up right at 79 minutes and some change.
            I've got the cure you're thinkin' of.

              You left Happy Trails on, but removed Runnin' With The Devil?

              DLR7884
              What a waste.

                It's all math. Even if I removed Happy Trails, I didn't have enough time for Runnin' With the Devil.

                And I like Happy Trails.
