Neither! because music is art and art can't be judged in such simple ways, one peice of art might be more likable to you than another but this is academic because the same result won't be the same with another individual who is asked to judge the same tunes.

Difficult But...
Blackie Lawless has stated that he longer sings that song anymore. He didn't want 13 yr. olds reciting those lyrics when he was on stage. These two songs are from completely different time periods as well. I still listen to W.A.S.P. but am far more critical of lyrics nowadays. You also gave us one video to look at. If I was 16 again I'm sure I would choose the hot chick over skulls anyday of the week. Therefore your poll is not a fair poll in that sense. Bathing suit...Skulls...Swimming Pool...Skulls. Way too easy. I like both songs if you really want to know. As a teacher I no longer say someone is better than someone else because if I did I could only teach a third of my students what they liked. Yesterday I taught Taylor Swift and Iron Maiden. See what I mean...

Back in the day, schoolteachers were APPALLED by this and nowadays they admit that they listened to it as kids!

So True...

I suppose you are right but all struggling artists write dark songs. I never take the absolute side of an artist anyway because they are subject to the same influences as anyone. I pick and choose the songs I like. F*** Like A Beast is not the best song of W.A.S.P. and Blackie Lawless is not someone I believe should lead a country into peace. He has lots of demons that make him much too impulsive. He is damn smart though. He reads people very well. His art is genuine no matter how questionable his tactics may be. (FYI: He used to strap on an exploding codpiece just to make a point of things.)Back in the day, schoolteachers were APPALLED by this and nowadays they admit that they listened to it as kids!
