Sweet Emotion should be first
Dream On is the best rock ballad of the 70s, that scream at the end
Walk This Way with Run-DMC changed music
I Don't Want to Miss a Thing made everyone cry at Armageddon
Crazy, Cryin' and Amazing is the best trilogy of videos ever
Back in the Saddle is such a great opener
Love in an Elevator still makes me laugh
Cryin' video with Alicia Silverstone, 90s gold
Janie's Got a Gun is their most serious song and their best
