Run Runaway

Slade was a popular rock band, which sounded like an Irish rock band. The band originated from West Midlands, United Kingdom.

The song Run Runaway sounded cool because of the way that the song made you feel like dancing around the living room with your kids (guilty) LOL

These are the lyrics, just in case you would like to sing along with the video:

I like black and white (dreaming of black and white)
You like black and white
Run run away

[chorus]
See chameleon
Lying there in the sun
All things to everyone
Run run away

If you're in the swing (money ain't everything)
If you're in the swing
Run run away

If you gotta crush (don't beat about the bush)
When I gotta crush
Run run away

Oh now can't you wait (love don't come on a plate)
Oh now can't you wait
Run run away

See there chameleon
Lying there in the sun
All things to everyone
Run run away

Run run away
Run run away
Run run away

Welcome To The Jungle

I was a big fan of Guns N Roses, when the band began it's adventure into the rock industry music world. I kind of thought that Axel Rose was a hot looking front man. Now ... not so much.
There eventually were allegations of him being a 'wife beater', which of course took a lot of the hotness factor away for me, but I still like the song, 'Welcome to the jungle'.

Lyrics:

Welcome to the jungle
We've got fun n' games
We got everything you want
Honey, we know the names
We are the people that can find
Whatever you may need
If you got the money, honey
We got your disease

In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your knees, knees
I wanna watch you bleed

Welcome to the jungle
We take it day by day
If you want it you're gonna bleed
But it's the price you pay
And you're a very sexy girl
That's very hard to please
You can taste the bright lights
But you won't get them for free
In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Feel my, my, my serpentine
I, I wanna hear you scream

Welcome to the jungle
It gets worse here everyday
Ya learn ta live like an animal
In the jungle where we play
If you got a hunger for what you see
You'll take it eventually
You can have anything you want
But you better not take it from me

In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your knees, knees
I wanna watch you bleed

And when you're high you never
Ever want to come down, YEAH!

You know where you are
You're in the jungle baby
You're gonna die
In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your
knees, knees
In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Feel my, my, my serpentine
In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your
knees, knees
In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your
It' gonna bring you down-HA!

Pour Some Sugar On Me

This song is my favorite song from the band Def Leppard. After being out of the lime light, for as long as it took Rick Allen to recover from a December 1984 car accident, which resulted in the amputation of his left arm, Electronic drum manufacturer Simmons created a kit, which would allow Rick to be able to play the drums with one arm, by adding drum pads for his feet.
This song had a really cool video, which re-introduced Rick, and his new drums, to their fans, so I decided to put the original video, and a live video on here, because both are worth watching.

White Wedding

This song is one of the best songs that Billy Idol came out with, which appeared on his album 'Billy Idol', in 1982. I chose a live version of this song, instead of the video that was played on MTV, back when they actually played music videos on there, because live concert performances RULE!!!



Were you a fan of Billy Idol's? If so, what was your favorite song?

Wild Thing

When I heard this song from the Troggs, when I was growing up, I thought that it sounded pretty cool. The music sounds sharp and kind of twangy, with a bit of a rock edge, which made it sound less like some of the other 60's songs, that were out there in 1964.
I was a big fan of Sam Kinnison as a stand up comedian, but when he decided to do a music video, of the song "Wild Thing", I thought that he was even more hilarious.
I included the Troggs original version, of this song, because Sam Kinnison's version, is more like a humorous parody of this song. Oh, and he could sing, but instead, preferred screaming :)




Sam Kinnison Wild Thing



Did you recognize any of the musicians in this video? I notice that two front men, were no where in sight. Do you know who they are?

Devil Inside

I was saddened, by the fact that the lead singer of INXS, Michael Hutchence, was found dead, back on Nov.22, 1997, from what the coroner says, was a suicide. People who were close to him say, that it was more likely, an accidental death, resulting from auto-erotic asphyxiation. The other being that someone had killed him, and made it look like a suicide. He was only 37 years old.
This song is one of my favorites. It has a totally rocking sound to it, with a bit of truth within the lyrics.



What are your thoughts about Michael's early demise? Feel free to leave a comment.

Guns N Roses ... Was A Totally Cool Band

I absolutely loved this song, "Sweet Child O' Mine", because I thought that the music, had just enough of a rock metal sound, so that the song didn't come off as, 'just another rock ballad.' It had the romantic lyrics of any rock ballad, but it also had edgy metal music, to go with it.



Are you still a fan of Guns N Roses, or did you stop liking them after they broke up, and started their own bands? Slash and Duff - the Velvet Revolver, and Axel Rose - the new Guns N Roses.
