In honor of Bret, I put on my Poison songs on Shuffle.
Here’s the first 20 – some hits, some obscure (but great tunes).
Ride The Wind – Perhaps their best song ever. Love this video. From “Flesh and Blood”
Want Some, Need Some – Doesn’t everybody. Ha-ha. From their debut album “Look What the Cat Dragged In”
I Need To Know – Cover of the classic Tom Petty song. From their covers album “Poison’d”
No 1 Bad Boy – Definitely one of Bret’s theme songs from back in the day.
I Won’t Forget You – Their first balled. Great tune.
Blame It On You – Another song from “Look…”
Life Loves A Tragedy – Listening to this song reminds me what is happening with Bret today. Kinda ironic.
Come Hell or High Water – Obscure song that I wish they played live.
Talk Dirty to Me (Acoustic) – Taken from MTV’s Unplugged. Just plain classic. That’s all I have to say about this one.
Love on the Rocks – First song off their best album ever “Open Up and Say Ahh!” Great tune.
Flesh and Blood – This is Poison’s goth-type song. A bit dark and creepy, but funny at times. Has a great Poison feel to it.
Play Dirty – Off “Look…”
Look What the Cat Dragged In – From their debut album of the same title. Great tune. Definitely showed the world what they can do.
Nothing But A Good Time – Perhaps their most famous song. Some may argue that “Every Rose…” was their biggest hit. But this one was the show stopper.
Let It Play – Just good time Rock n Roll from “Flesh and Blood”. Good song about just letting go of the everyday stress by putting on a good tune to chill to.
Cant You See – Marshall Tucker Band cover. Great Poison version.
Ball and Chain – Haha. Has a meaning behind it. Figure it out. Haha.
Life Goes On – If something really terrible happens to the amazing Bret Michaels, this will definitely be his tribute song. Along with “Something To Believe In”
Every Rose Has Its Thorn – Great, timeless, classic.
Valley of Lost Souls – Another dark-type song that the band did. It is not their nature, but they did a great job with one.
Well, that’s 20 songs. Other hits that didn’t play yet on the song list were of course “I Want Action”, “Something to Believe In”, Unskinny Bop”, & “Your Mama Don’t Dance”,
Get will soon Bret Michaels!
