The List Best Hair Band (http://www.vh1.com/insidevh1/shows/thelist/index_currentpoll.jhtml?ID=3877)

Look at this list. Come on, not all of these bands are to be considered "Hair bands", which is a bogus media term that refers to bands that came out between 1983-1992; who just happen to have big hair. Some of these bands were already established acts prior to 1983.

ZZ Top - 1970's Boogie rock band.
KISS - 1970's Hard Rock band
Definately Leppard - NWOBHM band (1979)
Van Definately - 1970's Hard rock band (1977)
Skid Row
Motley Crue
Twisted Sister
Whitesnake - Blues based rock band (1979)
Guns 'N Roses
Bon Jovi
Warrant
Poison

I know that Poison won't be in the top 3... cause people were always screwing them over... if it comes down to who did it best... I say that Poison were definatly one of the best "Hair Bands!"

Poison for me too! I like more of their songs than the other hair bands with the exception of G'n'R.

My top 3 would have to be:
Bon Jovi
Warrant
Poison

How can you not have Poison in the top as a hair band. They are the definition of a hair band. I am hesitant to put Bon Jovi in because they have stood the test of time better than any but others would consider them a hair band so I have to give them their props!

My pick:
Twisted Sister

Nobody rocked harder and they definitely had their own style. Nobody even tried to copy them (you have to admit, there were a lot of bands that looked and sounded alike). They didn't try to look cute, they wanted to look ugly (like your prom date from hell). I realize that it is probably a good thing that there wasn't a lot of TS wannabes, I just wanna see them get some recognition, because they rocked.

Kind of a strange list, but if we are simply basing it on liking their music, I'm with ZZTop or Kiss.

Hey, Bon Jovi is first!!! Woooo hooooo. It's weird, my three choices are there. But I voted GN'R for second, not Def Leppard but it's still cool cause Def Lep was 3rd for me. http://www.80sxchange.com/ubb/smile.gif

You're right, Ty and Canopy, Cinderella was great! Ever since I saw them open for Bon Jovi on the Long Cold Winter/ Slippery When Wet Tours, I have been highly impressed with them. Bon Jovi as well. Both bands proved they weren't just prettyboy bands, they rocked and kicked ass in concert.

How can you prefer Poison The had no Logivity, the Crue is still around and Rockin and has released a bunch of albums that are either better or even!

Long Live The Crue!The Crue keeps me a live and I thank god for them every day
P.S. Poison is the second best no doubt!

Poison was great but The Crue surpasses them on every level, Nikki Sixx is a much better Lyricist than all of Poison.
The Crue is much Motlier and Has sold more records
And is one of the biggest bands right now in 2005 how incredible is that!!!!
