Blech. Hair metal.

Composed by Fee Waybill (of The Tubes) and Richard Marx

It's still hair metal

They were trying to be Heart, it didn't work out.

I never thought about the Heart comparison

Vocal-wise really if you think about it. Look-wise they were trying to be like Poison/Warrant lol

My metalhead roommate in college had Vixen's first album and I used to listen to it when he wasn't around. I found them much easier to digest then the usual Yngwie J. Malmsteen or Y&T that he'd normally play.

Go Cinnie giving props to Vixen! This is why I love the org!!

In general I hope hair metal bands like Warrant, Cinderella, Faster Pussycat, Guns N' Roses, etc but not so much Vixen. This song was ok though.

I ignored (or tried to forget) about "hair" metal for two decades, but now I'm on a rock kick here in 2010!

If I was DJing after this I'd come with....

I knew you'd be on this thread LOL. You should check out my Robert Tepper thread. You might like him. Havn't got any of Vixens albums mind you.

Wrong! Vixen was like The Bangles meets Poison.

You mean Def White Ratt Poison Row?!?

For those of you too young to remember pop-metal bands, I was applying that Def Lepperd, White Snake, Ratt, Poison, AND Skid Row sometimes look the same.

And you got some hair R&B in your avatar.

Anyway. Hot song. Good memories. They didn't have that "Minneapolis sound," but they were from St. Paul.
