VH1's "Worst Metal Vids Ever" on NOW, and it's hoo-frikkin-LARIOUS.
It's on for another hour and a half. They're doing Slaughter's "Up All Night" right now, and Accept's "Balls To The Wall" was on before that. Pretty funny stuff...especially if you remember any of these bands and songs.

:toast:

What's your favorite most awesomely bad 'metal' song of all time? What heavy metal songs make you shake your head, roll your eyes, laugh, gag or just want to punch something because they're so horrendously great. that you love to hate them (or is it vice versa)? VH1 is counting down the 40 Most Awesomely Bad Metal Songs. Ever in a 2-hour special, hosted by Riki Rachtman, that will cover the lowest of the lows and the highest of the highs over the last three decades of awesomely bad heavy metal - you know, the kind of songs you shouldn't bang your head to. the kind of songs that maybe don't rock, but you love them anyway (or not).

Join us as we count down and celebrate fantastically cheesy lyrics, the most un-metal of themes, the worst/best of guitar riffs, and of course, those strange, misguided flukes from our favorite artists, while our team of experts help explain why we've deemed these songs so (un)worthy. We've been covering our ears, shutting off the radio, and running from the room screaming for too long. It's time to ban these songs to our awesomely bad Hall of F(Sh)ame!

3. I saw about five minutes of it.
It is so ridiculous thats all i could handle. Most of their pundits are not even old enough to even remember most of the songs, or the time in which they came from.

Two good examples would be, #1 Winds Of Change, by the Scorpions. Numer 1 though it is a song from a metal band the song itself is not metal and does not qualify. Also they totally discounted and did not take into consideration the feelings at the time.

#2 would be Silent Lucidity by Queensryche. Yet again another song by a hard rock metal band that was not nor was it intended to be a metal song.

Also one might notice that it's basically calling millions of us stupid, or deranged for liking said song(s). Not to mention the fact that both records sold millions of copies and were the best selling recordings of either band.

Thats about all i needed to see to figure out their list was garbage.

Also whoever posted the Head Games deal above me. Forgiener was no a metal band, never pretended to be, just strait rock with some stuff leaning towards hard rock.
