Diamond Dave, Sammy, whatever...picking a song from the Gary Cherone album will call into question your appreciation for any other VH material, though.

I'm starting to dig this POX stuff....

1. "Unchained"
2. "Ain't Talkin' Bout Love"
3. "Sinner's Swing"
4. "Everybody Wants Some"
5. "Mean Street"
6. "Oh Pretty Woman"
7. "Hot for Teacher"
8. "You Really Got Me"
9. "So This is Love?"
10. "Me Wise Magic"

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Sunday, 30 March 2003 21:18 (twenty-three years ago)

Fuck, strike "Me Wise Magic" for "And the Cradle Will Rock"

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Sunday, 30 March 2003 21:19 (twenty-three years ago)

I came oh so close to including "Me Wise Magic" myself. Really hurts to think of what could have been had a whole album been recorded during those early '97 sessions...

― paul cox (paul cox), Sunday, 30 March 2003 21:22 (twenty-three years ago)

I forgot Humans Being, which slays Me Wise Magic and Can't Get This Stuff No More (as far as late halen tunes).

― a, Sunday, 30 March 2003 22:01 (twenty-three years ago)

I forgot Humans Being, which slays Me Wise Magic and Can't Get This Stuff No More (as far as late halen tunes).

How much dope does one have to smoke to have their senses deceived so? "Humans Being" made my entire body cringe.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Sunday, 30 March 2003 22:09 (twenty-three years ago)

Really? That riff is killer and the chorus too.

There is just enough christ in me to make me feel almost guilty.

Gary did it well live too (insert joke here all you Gary haters).

― a, Sunday, 30 March 2003 22:54 (twenty-three years ago)

Thank goodness there were "more than words" on Van Halen 3.

― paul cox (paul cox), Sunday, 30 March 2003 22:59 (twenty-three years ago)

paul, um, hate to break it to you but that wasn't much funny. nor clever.

― a, Sunday, 30 March 2003 23:13 (twenty-three years ago)

Runnin' With the Devil
You Really Got Me
Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love

One Foot Out the Door
Intruder
Drop Dead Legs
Hot For Teacher

― mookieproof (mookieproof), Monday, 31 March 2003 02:07 (twenty-three years ago)

Forget the whole thread, David Lee Roth's version of Just a Gigalo slays everything, possibly even Hot for Teacher. I mean, the video!

― Ally (mlescaut), Monday, 31 March 2003 02:19 (twenty-three years ago)

nine months pass...

Hm... It was too hard to decide on 10, so here's my POXI...

Ain’t Talkin’ Bout Love
Jamie’s Cryin’
Bottoms Up
In A Simple Rhyme
Unchained
So This Is Love
Jump
Panama
Hot For Teacher
When It’s Love
Poundcake

― billstevejim, Monday, 12 January 2004 08:56 (twenty-two years ago)

1. Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love
2. Janie's Cryin'
3. Dance The Night Away
4. Beautiful Girls
5. And The Cradle Will Rock...
6. Everybody Wants Some
7. Unchained
8. Panama
9. Hot For Teacher
10. Why Can't This Be Love

(FWIW, DLR's version of "Just A Gigolo" turned out to be surprisingly difficult when I attempted it on karaoke a couple of years ago. After not having seen the video for years, all of those "scat" parts were difficult to time.)

― John Fredland (jfredland), Monday, 12 January 2004 10:26 (twenty-two years ago)

four years pass...

two of the first tracks that spring to mnd are 'little dreamer' and 'girl gone bad'. somehow these don't generally pop up as fan favourites.

― Charlie Howard, Tuesday, 29 April 2008 14:59 (eighteen years ago)
