Aerosmith. I have exactly four songs by them. Sweet Emotion, Janey's Got a Gun, Love in an Elevator, and Angel. I'm not exactly sure what the significance of these four songs is, where I got them, or how I came to decide upon them. I do know that I don't like any of them very much at all, so I think I'm going to delete them. Except maybe Sweet Emotion, which I mostly just like because of the very beginning bars, all guitar-y and kind of badass and it reminds me of Starsky and Hutch.
I do not think that Joe Perry is a particularly talented guitarist. I do, however, really like Steven Tyler's voice and think that it goes wasted on the often overall goofiness of most Aerosmith songs. The man can belt.
I feel like there are a couple Aerosmith songs that I hear on the radio and kind of enjoy, but now I can't think of them. I will definitely delete Janey as well as Angel. The other two are in limbo at the moment.

Ahh youth.. those songs are classics. It's easy to quickly dismiss Joe Perry, i've done the same so i can't say anything about you, but there is truly a method to his madness. It's not as showy, or technical, it's deep and dark. And that's what sets him apart.
Steven's singing... Janies got a gun is a fantastic example of his range. I've got some footage behind the scenes on the creation on that song, amazing stuff.
