The BOC can do no wrong, great drum beat and my eyes are flicking between the two videos!
Quite a big sound going on also, good production, 9/10.

This has a groove going on:
Nick Gravenites / Junkyard In Malibu.

A strange topic for a song...unless there's a metaphor in there that I'm missing. Nice ballad though nonetheless. 7/10

Ah, I guess you're right, Aero. Bernie Taupin used pretty confusing allusions here. Actually, this song were released in 1982 and dedicated to the memory of murdered John Lennon. As Wiki says "the song uses a garden metaphor throughout to represent Lennon's efforts, achievements, and absence."
Very catchy and danceable song by Billy Idol. Real hit. 9/10.

I'd like to see a musical or a real film made about Uriah Heep, the composition of their music is outstanding!
This is a case in point, the many layers and textures.. 20/10!
Next, the best AC/DC song they never did.
Krokus - Long Stick Goes Boom.

Wonderful blues by a great guitar master. Just an outstanding song, I really love such a type of blues-rock. 10/10. :good

Krokus - Long Stick Goes Boom.
Great choice, man! :cheers2 But for me "the best AC/DC song they never did" is Krokus's "Playin' the Outlaw". :grinthumb

From an equally great album, recorded in Québec!
Love Agnew's T. Shirt too.
This song is brilliant, this typified the beauty of 1977.
10/10.
Next up... Stray - Come On Over.
