“Talk Dirty to Me” – Poison
them's some nice lookin' ladies!
No one hates 80′s hair metal with more ferocity than I. The guitars were too pointy, the licks too fast, the spandex too, well, spandexy. I still find it quite difficult to muster up even a modicum of nostalgia for the likes of Motley Crue, Whitesnake, Dokken, or place name of random hirstute rockers here. All that being said, none provoke my ire like Poison: they were pretty, their songs were $hitty, and their awful video was all over MTV. And here it is again. Yuck! But at least “Talk Dirty” has a little bit of New York Dolls skank dust on it — if only a little bit — unlike the cringe-inducing horror of “Every Rose …” (I will not complete the title, and you can’t make me). Never shall that song damage the calm of this blog.
I hate Poison with the intensity of 1000 stars going supernova.
I LOVE POISON AND BLACK SABBATH AND MOTLEY CRUE FOR LIFE FUCK YOU!!!!!!
I think it’s a SIN to put POISON in the same SENTENCE as Black Sabbath. Clearly, you know not of what you speak!
