“Love, Reign O’er Me” by The Who (best drum riff at the end of a song by Keith Moon):

“I’ve Got You Under My Skin” by Frank Sinatra and Bono (sadly, we can’t embed it)

Bono bugging us (oh God, those hats, that ponytail…I’m not so sure we didn’t commit a crime by posting this)

Motley Crue doing “Helter Skelter” (much better than Bono bugging us)

Wendy O. Williams on “The Tomorrow Show” (NSFW) (but they BLOW UP A CAR ON LIVE TV)
