themusicaddict's Top 106 Greatest 80's Bands # 57 Poison Part 2: Their 21 Best Songs 10-1 (Finished August 29th, 2016)

Hello,

Just who is Poison? The classic lineup is Bret Michaels, lead vocalist and multi-instrumentalist, Rikki Rockett, drums and percussion, Bobby Dall, bassist, C.C. Deville, lead guitar.

Poison is probably best know for their first few CDs, the solid "Look What The Cat Dragged In", the disappointing "Open Up and Say....Ahh!" and the surprisingly mature "Flesh & Blood". That last CD has 10 of the 21 songs on this countdown. They expanded their sound, had more mature lyrics and had grown as a band. I was surprised how much I liked their third CD.

If you don't know what my #1 Poison song is then you've never read this blog. Although "Open Up.." is the weakest of their first 3 CDs, it has three of the top four songs on my countdown.

10) "Let It Play":


9) "Cry Tough":


8) "Ride The Wind":


7) "Unskinny Bop":


6) "(Flesh & Blood) Sacrifice":


5) "Talk Dirty To Me":


4) "Nothin' But A Good Time":


3) "I Want Action":


2) Fallen Angel":


Oh yeah one of the greatest songs ever, definitely a Top 500 song. 1) "Every Rose Has It's Thorn":
