One of the worst singers ever...

I like the studio versions of the first two Crue albums but the live show sucks. Vince was sucking to much helium.

You're 33 years old and just now noticing that Vince Neil can't sing?



Congratulations.

Never seen them in concert i just heard all the talk about how he sucked live. On studio albums he seemed ok but live wow...

TZ, first you tell me Green Day isn't metal, then you claim that Black Sabbath are marketing not so nice pictures of Satan and now Vince Neil can't sing !!!!!!!! What next, are going to tell me that Marc ' Roots' Mason is not an OG?

Oh no you didn't...

Oddly enough, the solo song Vince did w/ Desmond Child a few years back (part of that Remaking Vince Neil show VH1 did) was quite good and Vince sounded decent...but I'm sure Desmond put some miles on the autotuner...

I say, what's the big deal if he sucks?

It's not like Motley have ever been about good musicianship. It says a lot when the most talented guy in your band is Tommy Lee.

The whole band is much more talented than most popular rock groups today. Especially when it comes to songwriting.

I have to agree with Spec, I like Motley Crue but I never listen to Motley Crue and marvel at the band's grand musical talent, they are fun band not meant to be taken seriously.

I think that's a personal taste thing...Motley Crue are no better or worse at putting songs together than Nickelback or 3 Doors Down, you just don't like the latter's style...you can't equate personal taste and actualy talent.

I've seen Good Vince and Bad Vince. At least when Bad Vince is performing, he let's the audience do most of the singing for him.

"actualy talent". OK.

Actually ... some people/bands are better songwriters that others just like some people are better musicians than others and I actually can compare them.

I have to agree with this, it comes down to personal taste, 3 Doors Down and Nickleback maybe better musicians than Motley Crue (not much of a stretch I know) but I would rather hear a tuneless Vince Neil, a clueless Nikki Sixx plucking away at his bass, an amauterish guitar solo from Mick Mars and a souless drum solo from Tommy Lee than listen to 3 Doors Down or god forbid Nickleback.

Good job making fun of my typo.

And, unless someone has appointed you the ultimate judge of songwriting talent across multiple genres of music, then you are simply comparing styles and stating your personal opinion (and there's nothign wrong with that).

You'd be better served saying that you like Crue's songs better because you just like them. Making a stark declaration saying that Crue is simply more talented at arranging verses and choruses than Nickelback makes you sound like a know-it-all blowhard.

In other words, you apparently don't know how to express a simple opinion without making yourself out to be some sort of authority on the songwriting process.

What makes Crue "better" or "more talented"? Is it just because you like them and don't like Nickelback?

Just for the record i think "Looks That Kill" is one of the best pop-metal songs recorded.

I agree.

I love the first two Motley Crue albums, lots of classic early 80's LA metal, after that they sort of lost the plot with 'Theatre' and 'Girls!' too many filler tunes IMO.

My fav Crue album is the self titled album with John Corabi, and album that is Motley Crue in name only, but it is an album they could have never made with Vince Neil.
