Who knows, maybe one day I’ll get around to a list of the Top 1000! Have fun!Ĥ99. Hopefully you will enjoy the list and find a few songs you may have missed (I was shocked at how many good songs I had to exclude because I didn’t have the room) and feel free to debate the list (that’s the whole fun of doing it) in the comments section. I know some will want to argue about who is on and who is off the list (I think Heart threw in with the hair metal movement in 1985 as did Ozzy, albeit briefly, in 1986 but I excluded Judas Priest even though a few songs and nearly all of Turbo may qualify). and died around 1993 when Aerosmith had their last big multi-platinum album (and yes, I consider Aerosmith “hair metal” from 1987-1993 and so did Joe Perry according to an interview). I think it was largely created in 1981 on the Strip by bands like Motley Crue, Quiet Riot, etc. So, I began re-ordering a list based on preference, influence, how big of a hit and whatnot to produce this list.Īs an aside, I define hair metal as a combination of look (yes, look had something to do with it) and a blending of pop and metal. I compiled more than 1000 “hair metal” songs on my iPod and learned a few years ago that you could easily shuffle them around without the computer. I grew up in the ’80′s addicted to so-called “hair metal” and even worked on the Sunset Strip from 1989-1991. I’ve promised it forever and here it is–the Top 500 Hair Metal Songs of All-Time.
