Eyes Without a Face is a marvelous song. Many of these are, but I prefer that one.

Eyes Without a Face. Excellent vocals, great keyboards, and killer guitar ala Steve Stevens.

Eyes Without A Face.

 

All very good songs on the list but they don't come close to Eyes.

[The Cat 3]

Nearly impossible, but I went with “Rebel Yell”...

 

...Billy and Steve only made great songs.

 

Narrowing it down to one feels like betrayal of another.

 

The most underrated song writing duo of all time.

Eyes Without a Face almost got my vote, but Steve Stevens' riffs and guitar work in Rebel Yell puts that song on top.

[custom55]

To Be a Lover from this list

 

BUT

 

One Night, One Chance is his best song, from his best album.

Refuse to vote for Mony Mony because it's remake and imo the original is better.

Went with Eyes Without A Face. Fantastic song with more depth than anything else he did.

Dare I say it ? White Wedding is heavy.

Dare I say it ? White Wedding is heavy.

But is it metal?

I like "White Wedding" the most.

I had forgotten how many great songs he had. His cover of Mony Mony was a monster in the 80s college bars/dance halls. But Eyes Without A Face is just too good not to vote for.

'Don't Need a Gun' was a Top 10 hit, where it reached #10 on the US Rock Charts in 1987.

On a side note, I like the 'Top Gun Anthem' written by Harold Faltermeyer that Steve Stevens plays guitar on.

Not sure why that wasn't released as a single. Maybe they felt the album already had enough hit singles and didn't bother with it.

[Lorraine]

That's a tough one.

 

It's between Eyes Without A Face and Dancing With Myself.

 

I'm tempted to go with the latter because it's a real toe-tapper and I love the line So let's sink another drink 'cause it'll give me time to think, but ....... I just don't know.

That is a great line.

Although I voted White Wedding, Cradle of Love had the best video.

I don't think any straight man would argue against Cradle Of Love being his best video.

Sweet 16 has a nice and breezy Elvis/Chris Isaak vibe to it.

 

Not on the list: Blue Highway

I picked 16 but that is one of my favorite power ballads ever. Love those synths.
