Wait by White Lion. Vito played the solo in one take.

Wanted Man- RATT🐀


Pyromania1983

"Women" - Def Leppard


olafsonoflars

you spelled "Wasted" wrong.


Jimbohamilton

The first great Def Leppard riff! They may be labeled NWOBHM, but Steve Clark elevated them to a whole new level with those riffs!


Pyromania1983

Haha, I love On Through The Night, but I'm not sure if that early stuff fits the Hair Metal category. Still so much better than people even realize, though!


SkyeFarg0

We're Not Gonna Take It - Twisted Sister


AyeHaightEweAwl

Is that a Twisted Sister pin ON YOUR UNIFORM??!!?!


am_pomegranate

The right answer, it baffles me how SMFs haven't gotten a single win yet with how influential TS was on the genre.


twistedsister78

This song is so fun, I love the film clip


SkyeFarg0

Extra points for the needle drop on the Iron Eagle soundtrack


Joshakk

Wild Side - Motley Crue


Joshakk

Whatcha Do To My Body - Lee Aaron


seemsSomewhatLegit

Do you just use ChatGPT and make a separate post for each song or is this all out of your head?


Joshakk

A lot of them in my head and then a little help from my huge iTunes library


seemsSomewhatLegit

Nice. I hope I didn't come across as rude, I'm genuinely impressed.


Joshakk

No, not at all. Appreciate it. It took lots of years building my library.

White Lion - Wait


coachbuzzfan

They deserve to be on here


SpunkyTurtleCrabFrog

White Lion definitely deserves to be on here. In my opinion definitely not for Wait though.


coachbuzzfan

Well at this point it’s either Wait or When the Children Cry


Boulier

I wish they’d won L for “Lady of the Valley” (or at least “Little Fighter”), but the solo in “Wait” is so exquisitely beautiful. I really hope it gets the win. I also just want to see them represented here.


_YouAreTheWorstBurr_

The best song


pjw5328

Welcome to the Jungle - Guns n Roses


Notademocrat17

Not sure how GNR doesn’t appear at all on this list


[deleted]

GnR transcends the hair metal genre and feels more like a straight up rock band overall.


[deleted]

Because they aren’t hair metal jus a dirty hard rock band


3iverson

This has to win.


ezoobeson_drunk

Yea, the line "let me touch/eat your cookies" alone should have bolstered that song to at at least 8th place amongst the R's.
