No Picture nick Wanna Be	#2 by nick white at Aug 24, 2006 at 5:02 AM EST
	yeah what can u say except its a song u can listen to and really enjoy especially when ur drunk and alone and reflecting on past relationships. its a real tear jerker, yet still rocks.

No Picture Chris Badass	#3 by Chris Phillips at Oct 5, 2006 at 2:44 PM EST
	That is absolutely disgusting guybrows.

No Picture Rens Wanna Be	#4 by Rens van den Braak at Feb 4, 2007 at 10:45 PM EST
	Yeah, the song means alot to me as well. I heard the song was written by Micheals about a stripper he had dated who left him for one of the guys in Great White. Great White turned out to be one hit wonders and Poison still have a cult following to this day.

No Picture Tab Wanna Be	#5 by Tab at Feb 12, 2007 at 11:16 PM EST
	this was the first song i ever learned to play, and also the song if i'm ever with someone i actually don't want to lose, i'll play for them. little known fact, the song was written in a laundromat as brett michaels after hearing that his girlfriend dumped him for a rocker in a band that made more money than him. the rocker's band tanked, and poison got rich. how's that for irony?

No Picture heitor Average	#6 by heitor dolinski at Jun 30, 2007 at 10:13 PM EST
	This song is Poison's best. Everyone knows and loves it.

No Picture Mat Average	#7 by Mat Hancock at Sep 3, 2007 at 1:19 PM EST
	What does "every rose has its thorn" mean, though? Does it mean every good thing has its bad?

No Picture Andrew Average	#8 by Andrew Safwat at Sep 22, 2007 at 9:35 PM EST
