Aerosmith - Dude (Looks Like A Lady)

Band:  Aerosmith
Song:  Dude (Looks Like A Lady)
Album:  Permanent Vacation
Genre:  Classic Rock

I suppose it's only right that since I posted a Mötley Crüe song I should follow it up with a song that's actually, according to rumors at release and Nikki Sixx's book, is about the singer from Crüe.

Like, the whole song is just kinda funny if you only look at the lyrics.  Steven Tyler tryna get some, but then it turns out to be a dude, and he's surprised.  Like, really super shocked.  Not sure how he didn't see it coming, but honestly he kinda looks like a chick himself from time to time so who knows.

Then you get to add the fun of the song actually being about Crüe's singer.  The urban legend of it is that Steven Tyler accidentally tried to hook up with him after a concert, and while that really sounds like a much better story, the actual facts of the mater are less fun.  I'm not gonna type it out, but you can check the Wiki yourself to see the info.

Catchy song though, so have fun!

Aerosmith - Love In An Elevator

Band:  Aerosmith
Genre:  Classic Rock

As someone who never really got into Aerosmith I have a very small selection of songs of theirs that I like.  Because of this I'm mostly familiar with the material on their greatest hits album so all I have is the tuff a lot of people know.  I still like the stuff I know though, so that's what counts.

It's a fun song though, so I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Run D.M.C. - Walk This Way

Band:  Run D.M.C. feat Steven Tyler and Joe Perry of Aerosmith
Genre:  Rap Rock

I won't say these guys started the Nu-Metal trend, especially since this was much more Rap than Rock.  This is a really important song to mention though, cause even though Run D.M.C. used a lot of electric guitar in their beats already, so kinda of a stepping stone song in the process.

DMC did a lot of that already, so including Aerosmith was basically just step two.
