    Default Controversial Van Halen opionions

    I'll start.

    To the surprise of virtually nobody on this website, Why Can't This Be Love is probably my least favorite song on 5150.

    You can’t possibly believe that is a controversial opinion. Soft paddle.

    Ok. How about this one?

    I like Sinner's Swing more than I like Unchained.

    Coulda, is that really controversial? I mean, it's up there with the US Festival.

    I think And The Cradle Will Rock is an overrated song. I would rather listen to Loss Of Control.

    I think it's known I can't stand EWS, Sinner's Swing, OFOTD (outro notwithstanding), and SAITP. Don't care for HOP (filler). CTBM.

    CSLY is pop perfection. Not "contrived."

    Seventh Seal is boring.

    Not Enough is contrived.

    Studio versions of BOBW and 5150 way better than LWAN.

    Big Fat Money is a banger. Very Zep Rock & Roll-esque.

    Tattoo is a great song

    Stay Frosty sucks.

    That's what I'm talking about! I disagree with most of your takes, but I love the participation.

    I can't stand Don't Tell Me (What Love Can Do). I think the guitar riff is one of the lamest that EVH ever recorded.

    I can't stand the following songs: Secrets, Little Guitars, I'll Wait, Girl Gone Bad, and Me Wise Magic.

    Van Halen II was a weak follow up to the debut. I only listen to DTNA, SGMAD, and OLA.

    The only songs worth listening to on Diver Down are Hang 'em High and The Full Bug.

    Loss of Control and One Foot Out the Door are freaking amazing!!!

    For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge is the weakest of the Hagar era.

    Balance is drastically underrated. Drop the instrumentals and add Crossing Over and it's a masterpiece.

    I think AVH's drumming on Outta Love Again is more impressive than his drumming on Hot For Teacher.
