Today's update is a great one if you love the early Roth years!
Amazingly, I did not rank of these songs in my top 50.

Fun little tune, but Women and Children First has never been one of my favorites, and I probably like half of the album more than this song.
22 On Fire

This one got crazy support from its fan, appearing in five top 10s. I like it a lot, and, hey, it is from the debut, so you know it is worthy, but it's probably my 10th favorite from that record.

I probably should have ranked this, but I had it on the brain to not have any covers or guitar solos in my top 50, so there ya go. This is still possibly the most ground-breaking electric guitar song ever. No, EVH did not invent tapping, but he took it to a level previously unheard. There are stories everywhere of heads exploding all over the world when this song first landed in 1978.
