Well? Did any of you people dance to "When It's Love" at your wedding? Or did a VH song come oozing out of your radio just when you were "getting funny in the back of your car" and had special meaning for you ever since? Did you ever call a radio station and make them dedicate "Dreams" to your sweetie?

What about breaking up? Do you always listen to "Without You" or "Why Can't This Be Love" after getting dumped, or does "Unchained" help you get over it VH style?

yeah...Sammy songs helped me get over my last breakup...'Why Can't This Be Love', and his solo stuff 'Ill Fall In Love Again', especially.

I usually like to put on something aggresive. Today was the worst day. I had to go to the dentist. I would rather watch my dogs get killed then go to the dentist. Anyway I had to listen to "Outta Love Again" loud when I got out of there and used the "F" word heavily!

I got my girlfriend to go out with me by requesting WCTBL on my local radio station. Our song was Lady Picture Show by Stone Temple Pilots though. When she pricked me over, I played Not Enough a lot, but when I needed to get ticked off, I played some Unchained.

My ex-girlfriend wasnt really a Vh fan(hence the ex) but she and I made When its Love "our song." When I broke up with her, all I had to do was listen to some Sammy era songs and I'd feel better. Either that or listen to Without You. If I wanted to feel sad, i'd listen to Once.

I'm getting married again for the second time(gulp!) and we are dancing to two songs and one of them is Not Enough. Out of all the ballads that they have done, this one is far most the best and the easiest to slow dance to.

Eruption is the song to play when you're making out.

A friend of mine brought VHII to my wedding reception and had the DJ play "Dance The Night Away". At the time he didn't tell me he was going to do it so imagine my surprise!
Also, my wife's cousin (my cousin-in-law?) played "Wonderful Tonight" on guitar during the church service. At the rehersal the night before, he played "Eruption". Too bad he didn't play that during the wedding!

The first (and only http://www.vhlinks.com/vhlforum/smilies/smile.gif ) girlfriend that left me I was shocked. The medicine was Girl Gone Bad. Here I am, quite married now http://www.vhlinks.com/vhlforum/smilies/biggrin.gif

Seems to me Good Enough would be another song with the right theme for some things http://www.vhlinks.com/vhlforum/smilies/wink.gif

Me and one of my ex-girlfriends had "Love Walks In". Maybe it was "Best Of Both Worlds". I dunno. I know it was off 5150. When I get rejected, (which happens a lot), I just pop in "Why Can't This Be Love". Good tune.

I didn't share mine, so here goes...sorry, but for me, all the "meaningful" VH songs are strictly Sammy-era.

Can't Stop Lovin' You is my all-purpose break-up song, it never lets me down. "5150" is also a good one for that.

Whoever said Not Enough was the best ballad to dance to...DAMN STRAIGHT...I love slow dancing to Not Enough. Feels So Good may be cheesy, but it was a pretty good "our song" for my last boyfriend and I. He wasn't a VH fan though, and the only music we really made out to was Aerosmith's Nine Lives...love that album!!!

You are the man Eddymon!
I would have to say my wife's and mine VH song is Poundcake (just kidding). No it would have to be When It's Love.

I'd have to say Black n' Blue would be an ideal song to have a "back seat session" to!

Well Synth, there was a time on the back of
the school bus where I swore to her that
we'd play "Feel So Good" at our wedding.
Needless to say that never hapened but she
loved VH.http://208.50.7.95/vhlforum/smilies/cool.gifhttp://208.50.7.95/vhlforum/smilies/biggrin.gif

And there was another time when I knew we
where gonna break up and I couldn't stop
listening to "Give To Live" on RHRN. That
song brought me to my kneeshttp://208.50.7.95/vhlforum/smilies/cry.gifhttp://208.50.7.95/vhlforum/smilies/rolleyes.gif

Damn, I'm laughing at this thread. http://208.50.7.95/vhlforum/smilies/biggrin.gif

When I first saw it in Music Only, I thought, "WTF?! Synthy wouldn't start this in Music Only... How the hell did it get here?" http://208.50.7.95/vhlforum/smilies/confused.gif

Then I see that No Bozo's has dug this mo' fo' up - From APRIL!! http://208.50.7.95/vhlforum/smilies/biggrin.gif

(And, YES, I have a few "our song(s)," too. http://208.50.7.95/vhlforum/smilies/smile.gif But I'm not sharing any of them because I'm not about to pimp my memories of VH songs and what I did to some girls while listening to them. http://208.50.7.95/vhlforum/smilies/cool.gif )

All I have to say is, "Peace out naughty girls." http://208.50.7.95/vhlforum/smilies/wink.gif
