Re: Name your TOP 5 hair metal songs
Hard enough to narrow down to top 5 albums of the genre, never mind the top 5 songs.
Here are 5 off the top of my head, but probably forgetting some obvious great songs. These 5 are just a great representation of the scene for me.
Skid Row - 18 and Life
Motley Crue - Looks that Kill
Guns N'Roses - Paradise City
Def Leppard - Mirror Mirror (Look into my eyes)
Cinderella - Night Songs
