Home Sweet Home is one of the best "band on the road" ballads.

The thing I most remember about that song was that everyone seemed to lose their minds about Tommy Lee playing both piano and drums.  As a Rush fan, I was like, "whatever."

For sure.  Crue was in it for the party.  Rush are gods.

I went with "Okay".

They had a couple cool songs, but never really did anything for me.

People lost their minds because no one knew Tommy, the drummer played piano.   Everybody knew Geddy played bass, sang, played keyboards and Taurus pedals.

I think they are just ok.

I really like Nikki Sixx; he's an interesting guy.

Vince Neil is the second-worst singer in a platinum, arena-headlining band.

Or, as Vince would say if he was on stage:

"....................................just ok!"

"...................................................intristing guy!"

"Vince Neil............................................................................band!"

Haha, what, a musician can play two different instruments?

Home Sweet Home seemed to be one of those songs that every girl I knew at the time (7th grade :lol) loved.  Then again, if a hair metal band did a ballad in the 80's, you can bet your ass that girls everywhere were getting worked up (see: moist) just thinking about the song. :lol :lol

Never listened to them much, but had Dr Feelgood and remember liking it a lot, which was odd as it was a bit out of my wheelhouse at the time.

No doubt. If you wanted to get any action on the junior high dance floor, you better be clued in enough such that once one of those songs hit, you were all up on the girl you had a crush on asking her to dance.

Only know the hits, but never a fan at all.
Everyone else, except Wolfking is wrong.

Wow.  That's 3 things I agree with you on in recent days - Chris Cornell (awesome), Vince Neil, and Anthony Kedis.

I voted good.
They were never a favourite of mine but I like the debut, love SatD and Dr Feelgood but the rest is pretty poor.

Hated the Corobi album apart from one song.

I've never heard a single note of the Corabi album.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

Good. The  chemistry between the original members was unmistakable.

Then I recommend you check it out.  It's unlike anything they have done before or since.  Frankly, it's better than anything else with the "Motley Crue" name on it, but it sounds nothing like "Motley Crue".

Just an OK band. Dr Feelgood is very good, but, man, I just can't stand Neil's voice!
