[ZebraRampage]

Van Halen



Running with the Devil

Yeah, Yeah!
Ah, yeah!

I live my life like there's no tomorrow
and all I've got, I had to steal
Least I don't need to beg or borrow
Yes I'm livin' at a pace that kills

Oooh, yeah
(Ahh!) Runnin' with the devil (Ahh-hah! Yeah!)
(Woo-hoo-oo!) Runnin' with the devil
I'm gonna tell ya all about it

I found the simple life ain't so simple
When I jumped out, on that road
I got no love, no love you'd call real
Ain't got nobody, waitin' at home

(Ah, yeah-ah!)
Runnin' with the devil
(God damn it lady. You know I ain't lyin' to ya)
(I'm only gonna tell you one time-ya!)
Runnin' with the devil
(Yes I am! Yeah!)

Woo!

Woo!

You know I, I found the simple life
Weren't so simple, no
When I jumped out, on that road
Got no love, no love you'd call real
Got nobody, waitin' at home

(Ah, yeah!)
Runnin' with the devil
(Hold on. Hold on, I'm runnin'! Ah, yeah!)
Runnin' with the devil
(Uh! Uh! Come on, one more time)

(Ha-yeah!)
Runnin' with the devil
(Oh, yeah! Ya-yeah!)
Runnin' with the devil
(Woo! Woo!)
Runnin' with the devil
(Ah-ha, yeah! Ah-ha, yeah! Ah-hah, yeah!)
Runnin' with the devil (Woo!)




Lynyrd Skynyrd



Freebird

If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me
For I must be traveling on now
There's too many places I've got to see

If I stay here with you girl
Things just couldn't be the same
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now
And this bird you cannot change

Oh, and the bird you cannot change
And this bird you cannot change
Lord knows I can't change

Bye-bye babe, it's been sweet, love
'Though this feeling I can't change
But please don't take this so badly
'Cause Lord knows I'm to blame

But if I stay here with you girl
Things just couldn't be the same
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now
And this bird you cannot change

Oh, and the bird you cannot change
And this bird you cannot change
Lord knows I can't change
Lord help me I can't change

Oh No, I can't change

Yes, I was a tad bit late. But never fear, Vampyr is here!!

Btw, thanks for that pic of Air, Acebot. I'll upload it now.

No way! Skynyrd gets boring. Van Halen has fire. It's awesome music to PARTAY!

I do love that Freebird solo though

[zero hero]

Skynyrd of course. Van Halen was more glitz and glam. Skynyrd had the real root stuff. I mean come on: "Freebird"

[Null]

'Freebird' and 'Sweet Home Alabama' alone top anything halen did.


[EDIT] ahhh and we also got 'Tuesday's Gone'


ah hell. skynyrd is just plain better. no doubt.

[jeepnut]

There are few guitarists out there that can claim the shear amount of respect and influence in the guitar world that Edward Van Halen can. His two-handed tapping technique alone has spawned millions of immitators.

Vote goes to Van Halen for being one of the last great guitar gods.

[DimHalo]

yay for true music appreciation

[Classic Rocker]

Ain't Talkin bout Love easily knocks out Sweet Home Alabama, and Eruption is far better then the Freebird solo. Heh just my opinion.

yes. and you're allowed your opinion....





































its just your opinion is different from the FACT that freebird and sweet home alabama are better.

[Joeiss]

Too late to vote, but I am glad I had to sit this one out. These two bands are a tie in my books.
