Me, too. I don't think I've ever liked a Lita Ford song.

You gotta let go.

It's absolutely idiotic to contend Zep weren't A-listers in the 1970s.

not sure why "So Tired" gets so much hate.

great power ballad and Jake E. Lee tears it up on the solo.

hard to pick the worst song, as all of the albums up to "Scream" were pretty solid.

I just listened to it (its been ages).

Not a bad song, and yeah Jake is great.

But I'm guessing the hate stems from the fact that when people don't put on an Ozzy record to listen to The Carpenters.

P.S. I can't decide if the Carpenters is the best option there, but we're rolling with it.

Haha, thanks! Sleek thinks I'm smoking carpet, but that song has always rubbed me the wrong way, I'll take So Tired or Dreamer or any latter-day Ozzy over that turd any day!

A brilliant Rhoads solo can't save a shitty song; he certainly didn't save those earlier Quite Right albums from sucking either!!

Ooooh, great pick. For sure the worst Randy-era song; I think that might be something everyone agrees on.
and what's so irritating is that they had You Looking At Me instead of No Bone Movies, and, for reasons that elude me, they chose No Bone Movies....
the album could have been even better with You Looking at Me (including one of Randy's great unheralded solos):

I hate that Changes song but Mama I'm Coming Home is even worse.
