Hooligan’s Holiday the song :

Thumbs Up

Or

Thumbs Down

I like it.

thumbs up.

Unlike anything by the Scorpions, THUMBS UP!

Thumbs up

Thumbs up

Not enough of the drummer in the video

I like it. Swampy groove.

Thumbs down. Get bored about a minute into the song. Which happens with all the mc94 songs

True. But this is still a top 10 Crue tune.

Up. Love the drum sound.

Massive.
Whole album sounds fantastic

thumbs up, it's amazing

Their best Corabi song by miles.

Probably haven't listened to it in 15 years.

Terrible song, 6 never-ending minutes of agony...

Vince Neil's Exposed buries this album!

When your chorus shits the bed....automatic thumbs down.
When your hair band tries to sound like grunge metal... automatic thumbs down.

This. One of the best sounding cd's maybe ever.

Poson Apples is better.

Thumbs up for HH...but barely. Doesn't sound like the Crue at all.

Thumbs up. It’s the best song on MC94, which isn’t a very high bar compared to the Crue’s bigger 80’s classics, but it’s still good enough.

Agreed! Tommy really shines on this album. I guess banging Bobbie Brown would give you a little extra pep. My question is how...how does that album sound so good? Was the engineer putting more effort than usual into it? Was he better with the studio equipment? Was it better studio equipment? What makes that album sound so good? Especially the drums. Were they just mic'd really good? What in the fuck happened in that studio to make that band sound so good?

Was the BBE Sonic Maximizer even invented yet? If so, then that is most likely the answer.

What is though?

The best album that Mick, Nikki or Tommy have been involved in .

Corabi is a great singer and frontman but nothing he did post MC94 has been as good

I wanted to not like the song when it came out……great song.

Bob Rock was on a roll. I think it started with Dr. Feelgood and even Bon Jovi Keep the Faith. Then he kicked it up a notch for Metallica. Then up another notch for the Motley album. Then it all went to shit with St. Anger.
