Warrant probably came along about two years too late. Their 1989 debut album Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinking Rich and their follow up the next year, Cherry Pie, were both great albums. The band may have been able to squeeze a third big album out of the Hair Band Era if they had been around a little earlier, but alas, we cannot choose when the Sunset Strip calls us.
The band's first nine singles charted on the Billboard Hot 100, with three top 10 songs ("Heaven" (#2), "Cherry Pie" (#10), and "I Saw Red" (#10)) another two Top 40 songs ("Down Boys (#27) and "Sometimes She Cries" (#20)). In addition to these, both of their first two albums were chock full of catchy hard rock songs.
I'm going with Warrant's debut single, "Down Boys" because, even 28 years later, it's my favorite Warrant song. That's about all I have to say right now.
