The Best VH Derivative Songs Tournament (Round 2)
Off to Round 2 and thanks again for playing.
Can't believe "Big Trouble" got knocked off--I really thought that would've been a finalist based off all the love I hear about it on this site. But with the "Mine All Mine" upset over the Dave era, anything's possible. The only shut out was over Hurtsmile's "Where Do We Go From Here" from their '14 album, Retrogrenade. Much like some of the Tribe Of Judah songs, that was a "kind of" VH3 follow-up album song. It's honestly really, really good and I highly recommend checking it out (unless you loathe Gary of course). Anyways, bummed about "Goin' Crazy!" but happy there's some Garys left (yet strangely not Pornograffitti), and I'm sure you've gathered it's mostly Sammy songs because of his vastly superior catalog size.

Dang, missed the first round. Sorry to see so many awesome songs go.
Little White Lie out? Wow.
Where do we go from here shut out? Double-wow. That is a really great song that deserves more appreciation.
Oh well... My two cents for round two:
Future in the Past
Rock Candy
Marching to Mars
Play with Me (a killer live track every time)
High Hopes (of the two new tracks on Unboxed, always liked Buying my Way into Heaven better though)
She’s My Machine
Down the Drain
Yankee Rose
I Can’t Drive 55
There’s Only One Way to Rock
Salvation on Sand Hill
Turnin’ Left
Tropic of Capricorn
Black Sand
Bad Motor Scooter
Rest in Peace

I have a feeling Tulsi Gabbard will last the longest in Trump's cabinet and will eventually take over MAGA when he's out of office. Sorry Vance, but he's milquetoast. Tulsi is the future!
