Volume 236: Bell Biv Devoe "Poison" (1990)

This song has that kickass drum break, and I believe that's the reason why they made a million dollars. And fellas, don't forget: never trust a big butt and a smile. I believe Tony Robbins said that.

Unplugged Week: Poison "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" (1990)

With a few changes and a different set of circumstances, this could have been a Gram Parsons song, or at least a George Strait song. But no, somehow Bret Michaels wrote it. I realize this is more of an 80s song, but they did it on Unplugged, so it's kind of a nice segue into the Better Decade.
