POISON, KISS, GUNS N' ROSES and MR. BIG have penned some of the "wussiest songs" of all time, according to AOL Music. Although much of AOL's list of "The 111 Wussiest Songs of All Time" consists of pop-artist selections, several rock acts made the cut, including the following:

99. "Don't Cry" - GUNS N' ROSES (1991)
76. "To Be With You" - MR. BIG (1991)
36. "Beth" - KISS (1976)
27. "More Than Words" - EXTREME (1991)
05. "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" - POISON (1988)

Axl is pretty wussy. Damn he whines even when he is singing a heavier song. Aside from App for destruction you can keep GnR.

You people want to know a song that isn't pussified?

Answer: Slayer's "Cult"
(...Eventhough I also would have accepted "Run to the Hills", "Ace of Spades", or "The Thong Song" as answers)

I get to hear crappy 80's music all day long at my job so I've hear these songs a million times. I can't completely disagree with the selections but Extreme's "More that Words" sounds pretty puss but if you listen to the words he is telling his woman to cut out the "I Love You's" and make with the lovin'. That is a message that I can get behind.

Poison is a blazing heap of flaming sh** in a paper bag on Mr Rogers Tombstone.

Anyone who wants to debate this FACT, is more than welcome to "bring it on" as our drooling president would say to militants.

GNR is a litte harder for me to laugh directly at because Axl has demons in his microphones and quite frankly I fear his balding head, braids, fat belly and whiney voice.

Mr Big....holysh**...Anyone who can defend that needs to join the f***ing Seahawks

Don't Cry is one of the greatest ballads ever written... Axl may not be for everyone's tastes, but he is undeniably talented. So how do you like them apples, b*tch?

Over ripe actually, b****.

This thread has about 2 days left to live so lets make this worthwhile.

Yes, Axl is talented but so are porn stars and fire breathers...You wont see me championing them and Axl is no better. He had his shot: but he blew it.....On videos with dolphins and oil tankers.

I can always depend on Axl to cheer me up.

--so Mr Big screwed the pooch when they released "To be with you." but hey, that band had Billy Sheehan on bass and Paul Gilbert on guitar..come on people..do you remember Talas and Racer X...
These two are a couple of the most INCEDIBLE musicians to ever pick up a fuc#in stringed instrument....!!!!!!!!!!!
So they wrote some slow songs...It got them laid....ALOT..!!!! and thats alright in my book...
I am not saying they are the best band in the world...but take a listen to Mr.BIG on the song...Addicted to that Rush....thats FUC#IN incredible...
"More than words" sucked donkey c*** but Nuno Bettencourt is a phenomenal guitarist....
Poison just plain SUCKED all the way around.....
But Kiss....these guys were the precursor to all the bands that wear make-up and play Rock and Roll....their shows back in the day...kicked ass...they wrote the book on "puttin on a show" for their fans....and there are lots of them...hence the KISS ARMY...
