[Randy Van Vliet]

1 - Anything by AC/DC:  I'd love to have seen PG growl
through those.
2 - War by U2.  Nice little ditty with some political
punch and the vocals suit Rob or Bones better than PG.
3 - Anything by any of the "boy bands" from the last
few years.  What a waste of whatever CD's are made out
of.
