Some of my fave VH songs in no certain order:
Mean Street Little Guitars Hot For Teacher Runnin' With The Devil Unchained Dance The Night Away Everybody Wants Some Panama Aint Talkin' 'Bout Love Ice Cream Man Poundcake (fave Sammy-era track) You Really Got Me (I know it's a Kinks cover song, but they did a good job with it!)
I'd put "Eruption" on the list, but it's really a guitar solo | |
